ETPF
European Tax Policy Forum Research Papers 2006 - 2020
The European Tax Policy Forum (ETPF) was set up in 2005 to commission independent academic research into the impact of tax policy on business in Europe.
This has resulted in a large number of studies of lasting value, many of them published in reputable academic journals.
Following the dissolution of ETPF in 2024, the Oxford University Centre for Business Taxation will make all the research commissioned by the ETPF available to scholars and the general public on this site.
