L’évaluation des dépenses fiscales : des principes à la pratique - guide méthodologique
December 31, 2018
This workshop was an opportunity to discuss tax policy in France and Africa.
The first part of this workshop focused on tax evasion and aggressive tax optimisation by multinational companies, affecting tax revenues in both developed and developing countries. Solutions initiated by the French Republic, the OECD or the International Monetary Fund to combat these phenomena were outlined and discussed.
CERDI's contributions on tax policy issues in Africa were presented in the second part of this workshop. This work program was based on numerous collaborations with international organizations such as the IMF or the World Bank, or national organizations such as the French Development Agency, the Foundation for International Development Studies and Research (FERDI) or Droit Afrique.
