As developing countries try to ease the economic burden caused by COVID-19, they must find a balance between tax relief and future revenue. In this episode, Belema Obuoforibo, Director of the IBFD Knowledge Centre, and guest experts Prof. Attiya Waris, Johan Langerock and Dr Yon Arsal address three key questions: • Given the structure of many African economies, in particular the informal sector, what’s the ideal fiscal policy design for African governments during this crisis? • Should developing countries offer tax incentives, and if so, under what conditions? • Taking one country as a case study: what are the main tax incentives and policies implemented in Indonesia as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic? Prof. Waris speaks from 2.01 – 8.36
