The Ministry of Finance (MoF) has announced that the Ministry and the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) with the support of the UK Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) have been collaborating with the Institute for Fiscal Studies (IFS) UK to jointly conduct analysis of some tax policy issues and build long term analytical capacity in evaluating the impacts of tax policies.
The work the researchers from the IFS undertake with the team from MoF and GRA falls under broader work being undertaken at the FCDO-funded Centre for Tax Analysis in Developing Countries (TaxDev).
This Survey of the Tax System, the Ministry said, is just one part of this collaborative programme of work, which began in 2016 and is set to continue until 2030.
The Ministry of Finance said this after publishing an updated Survey of the Ghanaian Tax System, produced jointly with TaxDev researchers from the Institute for Fiscal Studies (UK).
