Accelerating financing for development: international taxation and investment
The realization of the 2030 Agenda requires an unprecedented mobilization of public and private funds. Through targeted engagements with well-known think tanks, this intervention will support the creation of evidence on the combined potential of international investment and taxation policies as accelerators for the financing of sustainable development. Translated into policy options, this evidence is expected to contribute to the shaping of policy discussions in relevant international fora, notably at the OECD, and inform Swiss positions.

Hintergrund |
Private investment (INV) and tax revenues (TAX) are central pillars for the financing of the 2030 Agenda, together with official development assistance (ODA). Traditionally, states have negotiated international policies and frameworks in these two fields out of a national and economic perspective. In today’s context of internationally recognized global challenges and with the existence of a universal/transformational agenda for sustainable development, questions regarding the coherence and complementarity of these frameworks and their propensity to incentivize public and private agents to maximize their contribution to sustainable development objectives remain to be answered. Currently, the international policy dialogues aiming at bridging sector-specificity tend to be limited and fragmented. This is particularly true for the OECD, a multilateral organization of prime reference when it comes to INV, TAX and ODA. |
Ziele | To inform international dialogues and shape policy options by supporting new knowledge on the combined potential of international investment and taxation frameworks as accelerators for the financing of sustainable development. |
Zielgruppen | Policy makers, government representatives, mainly at international level. |
