The VAT is the largest revenue generator in lower-income countries. Is it perfect? No. But, with all its flaws, it is still better than its alternatives. This @vox_dev blog summarises the key insights from our JEP paper using admin data on the VAT from 11 countries. @ICTDTax
At last #G20 is showing how to finance an assault on poverty theguardian.com/business/2024/…

Happy birthday to Albert Hirschman, who would be 109 today. Hirschman—anti-fascist, resistance hero, later a development economist—may be the most interesting person to ever take up the profession. 🧵 and blog post on his remarkable life and work.
Thx @BrookingsInst for allowing us to share the following lessons: 1. Fiscal rules & acceptance of (& accountability to) the rules is key to debt reduction; 2. Acceptance is hard to forge given political polarization but if Jamaica did it others can too; 3. Leadership matters!

The idea of de-growth is a radical failure of imagination among part of the left. We can promise, and deliver, a much better future than that.
