About this Dataset

Tax And Benefits Analysis Tool (TAXFIT)

TaxFit is a microsimulation model that computes taxes and benefits— including income taxes, social security contributions, social assistance, care, family, and in-work-benefits — for households whose characteristics are defined by user provided information about gross incomes and family structures. Users can compare the burden and generosity of the tax and benefits systems across 16 Emerging Market and Developing Economies, as well as indicators of policy-induced (dis)incentives to formal work, which have a gender focus.
