Abstract

For those countries with a corporation tax, there are differences between the statutory tax rate set by the government and the effective tax rate paid by companies. Using a sample of 21,693 listed non-financial firms from 76 countries during the period 1999-2009, the study shows that the geographical scope, the level of development, membership of the OECD or the institutional quality of the countries are determinants of these differences.
