Taxes and fees fund the public sector and impacts value-creation in society generally and in the business sector. The research areas range from tax levels and capital flight, to media economics and health economics, municipal economics and national insurance schemes.
Petter Bjerksund, Arnt Ove Hopland and Guttorm Schjelderup: Calculation of tax costs necessarily requires data for tax and income, and we only get such data after the tax has been paid. A forward-looking, speculative method does not strengthen the tax debate.
Petter Bjerksund, Arnt Ove Hopland and Guttorm Schjelderup: If we remove the wealth tax, the effective tax is greatly reduced for the rich. For an investor, the tax drops from 21 percent to 15 percent just by assuming that the share capital is unlisted, not listed.
Petter Bjerksund and Guttorm Schjelderup: Menon's "summary of knowledge" is tax propaganda. It polarises the debate, undermines NHO's reputation and prevents a tax policy compromise that could give companies stable tax framework conditions.
Ole-Andreas Elvik Næss: Although there are good arguments for the wealth tax to be reduced, there are not as good arguments for the corporation tax to be raised.
