Discussion “What should taxes be in Ukraine?”
[ad_1]
In 2022, state budget expenditures reached an unprecedented 57% of GDP. Less than half of these costs were covered by own tax revenues. Grants accounted for 10.2% of GDP, and deficit financing accounted for another 19.3% of GDP. In general, the so-called “fiscal gap” in 2022 amounted to about 29.5% of GDP.
This year the situation will remain very similar. Dependence on external financing is unprecedented. How and when can Ukraine return to financial self-sufficiency? What should be the tax system after the war? What should be the optimal tax burden?
We will talk about these issues with the participants of the discussion February 2, 2023 at 4:00 p.m.
Speakers:
- Konstantin Shvabiy, expert, Growford Institute;
- Volodymyr Dubrovsky, senior economist of CASE Ukraine
Moderator: Dmytro Boyarchuk, executive director of CASE Ukraine
The event will be held in the format of a webinar (Zoom). There will also be a broadcast on the page “The price of the state” on Facebook and YouTube.
