SUMMARY:CANCEL - Bertrand GARBINTI (CREST) - "Information Regime and Tax Elasticities: Evidence From the French Wealth Tax"
DESCRIPTION:Applied Micro seminar : Every Tuesday \nTime: 12:15 pm – 13:30 pm\nDate: 18 th of October 2022\nRoom : 3001 \nBertrand GARBINTI (CREST) – “Information Regime and Tax Elasticities : Evidence From the French Wealth Tax” \nAbstract : We study a reform of the French wealth tax that dramatically reduced the amount of information that taxpayers must self-report below a certain level of wealth. Combining administrative micro-data with dynamic bunching and difference-in-differences approaches\, we find large behavioral responses to this switch to a low-information regime. The reform caused a 0.5 percentage points average decrease in the annual growth rate of wealth reported by treated taxpayers each year following the switch to the low-information regime. This reduction is driven by a 4 percentage points decrease for taxpayers bunching at the information discontinuity threshold. Consistent with opacity leading to lower compliance\, treated households do not experience a real change in their (third-party) reported labor and capital income. The wealth tax base becomes much more elastic in the low-information regime\, illustrating the first-order role of information policy choices for tax base elasticities. \njoint work  : Jonathan Goupille-Lebret\, Mathilde Munoz\, Stéfanie Stantcheva and Gabriel Zucman \nOrganizers:\nBenoît SCHMUTZ (Pôle d’économie du CREST)\nRoland RATHELOT (Pôle d’économie du CREST)\nSponsors:\nCREST \n
