As a result, the country remains vulnerable to revenue fluctuations which in turn contribute to macroeconomic volatility. This report concludes that a more diversified approach to domestic resource mobilization will reduce such volatility and provide more stability in government finances. To achieve this, it proposes a modern value-added tax is introduced alongside other tax administration reforms, and that these need to be complemented by more efficient public expenditure. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46396079276183,"sku":"9789292707378","price":2745.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9789292707378.webp?v=1769035371","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/tax-effort-and-tax-potential-in-timor-leste-assessing-post-pandemic-fiscal-challenges-and-priorities-9789292707378","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
