In an era of global trade dominated by global value chains, much of the recent empirical analysis has focused on the impacts of non-tariff barriers, behind-the-border measures, and other transaction costs on integration. Though most countries have substantially lowered their Most Favored Nation tariffs, evidence is surfacing from developing countries that other border taxes are on the rise, increasing the level and complexity of protection. Para-tariffs are often disguised, under-reported, and, in some cases, total protection levels exceed committed tariff bindings under the WTO. A case study of Sri Lanka, using partial and general equilibrium modelling, shows that the phased reduction of para-tariffs and unification with existing customs tariff structures could boost domestic production, promote exports, raise employment and GDP, while simplifying tariff administration. Increasing the transparency of border taxes requires full implementation of WTO Article II on reporting tariff schedules, including para-tariffs, together with institutional capacity building of developing countries across their respective customs and other related agencies.

The OECD's BEPS Project was a major attempt to harmonize tax principles between jurisdictions and prevent tax motivated artificial profit shifting. One aspect of the BEPS Project is Action 5's tax ruling transparency framework. High-profile instances of tax avoidance, such as LuxLeaks and the Apple-Ireland state aid case, have only elucidated the extent to which tax authorities can use rulings to facilitate tax avoidance. However, it should not be expected that Action 5's tax ruling transparency will materially curb the use of rulings to aid tax avoidance.
For Action 5's transparency framework to achieve its goal, it must deter either countries from issuing favorable rulings that depart from the issuing country's tax laws and principles and other international tax norms or firms from utilizing these favorable rulings. This paper argues that Action 5 does not have this deterrent effect. However, when tax ruling transparency is coupled with a disgorgement mechanism, such as EU state aid law enforcement, transparency is likely to reduce the number of instances where tax rulings will serve as an effective tool to induce tax motivated income shifting. As such, this paper argues that a disgorgement mechanism, analogous to EU state aid law enforcement but with a different substantive backdrop, should be implemented to effectuate the desired behavioral responses to Action 5's tax ruling transparency.

Using a large panel dataset of more than 60.000 firms matched to 125 banks in France, we investigate the transmission of the Sovereign Debt Crisis to the French economy via lending relations. We show that French banks’ exposure to sovereign stress negatively affected their corporate borrowers and this impact is heterogeneous across firms. We document three main findings. First, banks most exposed to risky sovereign debt decreased overall lending by more relatively to less exposed banks during the Sovereign Debt Crisis. Second, firms that borrowed from banks with higher sovereign debt exposure obtained less short-term loans and faced higher funding costs with respect to firms related to other banks. Third, the magnitude of these effects depends on the likelihood of firms being financially constrained: among firms related to banks with larger exposure to sovereign risk, younger and smaller firms were relatively more affected by these credit restrictions. These results support existing evidence on the spill-overs of the Sovereign Debt Crisis in the Euro Area from peripheral to core countries via the direct exposure of their domestic banking system.

Within the field of innovation studies, researchers have identified several market failures that hamper investment in R&D, innovation and growth in a market economy. Several policies such as government subsidies, tax deductions, soft loans, and public venture capital provided to firms that pursue R&D have therefore been recommended by researchers, in addition to regulations to increase the quality and standards of goods and services. Less attention has been paid to government failures in cases where a policy fails to achieve its stated goal, often due to conflicts between the interests of special interest groups and the public. This paper discusses the concept of government failure within an innovation policy context and why this perspective is important for policy design since it is likely that policies that aim to reduce market failures could suffer from political failures. A text analysis of all papers published in 5 leading innovation journals between 2010 and 2019, a total of 5,526 papers, indicates a lack of research about government failures, which could lead to recommendations from researches to policymakers not being successful due to political failures.

This paper explores reasons for declining contributions of multinational firms to corporate tax revenues. Using a population of UK firms, I show that over the period 2000 - 2014 multinationals paid a declining fraction of corporate tax revenues, while expanding in size. In 2014 over 70% of total assets reported on UK company balance sheets were held by companies that paid no tax and were part of a multinational group. Further, tax incentives for small and medium companies have increased the number and the corporate tax revenues from those companies. I analyze potential reasons for why these patterns occurred.

The goal of this paper is to study the consequences of non-reciprocal or unilateral altruism, that is, of altruism between individuals who have different concern for others. By contrast to what the literature usually shows-that unilateral altruists lead egoists to cooperate, that non-reciprocal altruism destroys altruism or that it generates non-desirable exploitation-we show that unilateral altruism does not forcedly lead egoists to cooperate nor it destroys altruism and that, in some situations, it can even be Pareto improving. By analyzing a simple cooperation game with other-regarding preferences, we find that unilateral altruism gives birth to a Samaritan's Dilemma where egoists predate Samaritans by free-riding on their contribution. Perhaps counterintuitively, we also show that in case "exploited" Samaritans experience a higher subjective well-being than in a classical Prisoners' dilemma. Finally, we derive conditions for the evolutionary stability of both the predators' and Samaritans' behavior.

Abstract Rules governing monetary state financing vary across jurisdictions. The mainstream rationale for bans of state financing rests on the empirical assumption that monetary financing undermines fiscal discipline. We address the plausibility of this assumption by estimating local projection models for a panel of euro area countries to explore the reaction of the sovereigns’ fiscal position to a monetary policy shock. Our results suggest that fiscal discipline is not waning after an expansionary monetary policy innovation that can be related to non-standard policy interventions, as expressed through an improvement of the primary balance despite declining borrowing costs. While no compelling inferences can be made as to the driving force of this improvement – political pressure channeled through conditionality may be a plausible explanation – our results suggest that empirical claims on the adverse effect of unconventional monetary policy on fiscal discipline are ill-founded.
