Fiscal Benefits Evaluation

Nova SBE Economics for Policy Knowledge Center's project, commissioned by the Portuguese Tax Authority, aims to assess the economic impact of three capital tax benefits.

This project was commissioned by the Portuguese Tax Authority, and it means to assess the economic impact of three capital tax benefits. These tax benefits exempt non-resident financial institutions who lend money to or make deposits in Portuguese from paying taxes on the earned interest.

The project was concluded in July 2020.
