Taxation of Investment and Savings in a World Economy

Author

  • Gordon, Roger H

Abstract

The equilibrium of capital and equilibrium market prices are derived for a world economy with a unified securities market, mobile capital, no uncertainty, and varying tax rates on different sources of income in each country. The paper then characterizes optimal tax rates for a small country in this setting, focusing on the peculiar incentives created when the before-tax rate of return differs among securities due to differences in their typical tax treatment.
