Publication Middle East and North Africa Economic Update, April 2020(Washington, DC: World Bank, 2020-04-09)Due to the dual shocks of the spread of the virus and lower oil prices, World Bank economists expect output of MENA to decline in 2020. This is in sharp contrast to the growth forecast of 2.6 percent published in October 2019. The growth downgrade of 3.7 percentage points is arguably a measure for the costs associated with the dual shocks of Covid-19 and the oil price collapse. These numbers are tentative. The true impact depends on future developments of the dual shocks, policy and societyâs response, which depends on the transparent use of health and economic data. We recommend a two-step approach: It might be desirable to focus first on responding to the health emergency and the associated economic contraction. Fiscal consolidation and structural reforms associated with the persistent drop in oil prices and pre-existing challenges are also very important, but with proper external support, can wait until the health emergency subsides. Nevertheless, the MENA region has challenges that predate the crisis â it has been growing far slower than its peers. Had MENAâs growth of output per capita been the same as that of a typical peer economy over the past two decades, the regionâs real output per capita would be at least 20% higher than what it is today. A large part of MENAâs low growth is arguably due to a lack of transparency. MENA is the only region that dropped in data transparency and capacity since 2005. We estimate that this has cost MENA 7-14 percent in GDP per capita losses since 2005. Lack of transparency hinders credible analyses of many important issues, two of which are highlighted in the report. First, lack of data transparency hampers credible analyses on the regionâs debt sustainability â an important issue to examine after the crisis. MENA countries vary greatly in their debt reporting standards. World Bank economists and other external analysts do not have access to vital information about many types of public debt. Second, the unemployment and informality numbers in the region are debatable since MENA countries rely on varying definitions of employment with little harmonization across the region or with respect to international standards. This affects analyses of unemployment and informality.Publication Effective Tax Rates and Firm Size(World Bank, Washington, DC, 2023-02)This paper provides novel evidence on the relationship between firm size and effective corporate tax rates, using full-population administrative tax data from 13 countries. In all countries, small firms face lower effective corporate tax rates than mid-sized firms due to reduced statutory tax rates and a higher propensity to register losses. In most countries, effective corporate tax rates fall for the largest firms due to the take-up of tax incentives. As a result, a third of the top 1 percent of firms face effective corporate tax rates below the global minimum tax of 15 percent. The minimum tax could raise corporate tax revenue by 27 percent in the median sample country.Publication Women, Business and the Law 2019(World Bank, Washington, DC, 2019-02-27)The World Bank Groupâs Women, Business and the Law examines laws and regulations affecting womenâs prospects as entrepreneurs and employees across 187 economies. Its goal is to inform policy discussions on how to remove legal restrictions on women and promote research on how to improve womenâs economic inclusion. Women, Business and the Law 2019: A Decade of Reform introduces a new index measuring legal rights for women throughout their working lives in 187 economies. The index is composed of 35 data points grouped into eight indicators. The data covers a 10-year period not only to understand the current situation but to see how laws affecting womenâs equality of opportunity have evolved over time. The index assesses economic rights at milestones spanning the arc of a womanâs working life: the ability to move freely; starting a job; getting paid; legal capacity within marriage; having children; running a business; managing assets; and getting a pension.Publication FY 2020 Equatorial Guinea Country Opinion Survey Report(World Bank, Washington, DC, 2021-05)The Country Opinion Survey in Equatorial Guinea assists the World Bank Group (WBG)in gaining a better understanding of how stakeholders in Equatorial Guinea perceive the WBG.

In countries with mature funded systems, like the Netherlands, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the United States, pension funds are worth 85 per cent of GDP on average. Pension funds in mature systems are large and could prove an attractive revenue target. They are a major force in private savings flows, supplying capital to industry and providing retirement incomes. The note continues with an in depth analysis of taxing pensions, and further, highlights the question, how generous a tax treatment? There are three arguments for taxing pensions more generously that other kinds of savings. a) to ensure people have a standard of living in retirement close to when they were working, b) to cut the cost of social security benefits for pensioners, and to increase long-term savings. The note concludes that : the 'expenditure tax' taxes pension savings once, either when contributions are made or benefits withdrawn it is the best way of taxing pensions, because it is neutral between consuming now and consuming in the future; most countries treat pensions close to the expenditure tax, the pre-paid tax, which exempts benefits, collects more revenue now, but may not be credible.
