The objective of this paper is to estimate the combined effect of tax shocks on economic growth. More explicitly, in order to assess the dynamic interactions between economic growth, tax structure and tax burden, impulse response functions of growth are estimated using a vector autoregressive model. The regression results suggest that a tax structure based on indirect taxes is more favorable to economic growth. Moreover, tax burden has a negative effect on growth.
Author Keywords: Tax structure, tax burden, growth, Vector autoregressive model.

More explicitly, in order to assess the dynamic interactions between economic growth, tax structure and tax burden, impulse response functions of growth are estimated using a vector autoregressive model. The regression results suggest that a tax structure based on indirect taxes is more favorable to economic growth. Moreover, tax burden has a negative effect on growth.

Abstract: (french)
L’objectif de cette étude est d’estimer les fonctions de réponse de la croissance économique suite à une combinaison de chocs fiscaux. Plus explicitement, dans le but d’étudier les interactions dynamiques entre la croissance économique, la structure et la pression fiscales, un modèle autorégressif vectoriel est estimé afin de simuler les fonctions de réponses impulsionnelles. Les résultats obtenus indiquent qu'une structure fiscale orientée vers la fiscalité indirecte est plus favorable à la croissance économique. Par ailleurs, la pression fiscale exerce un effet négatif sur la croissance.
Author Keywords: Structure fiscale, pression fiscale, croissance, modèle autorégressif vectoriel.
