Tax responses in local public finance : the flypaper effect at work

Köthenbürger, Marko; Loumeau, Gabriel - 2023

The transfer elasticity of income tax rates is an important parameter in public finance. Given the significant fiscal autonomy of Swiss municipalities, Switzerland is an ideal setting for examining behavioral responses to tax policy. Using a regression kink design, we find robust causal evidence...
