Regular maintenance of the EUROMOD tax-benefit microsimulation model and preparation of its transfer to the European Commission

Project Details

Description

EUROMOD (https://www.euromod.ac.uk/about/what-is-euromod) is a tax-benefit microsimulation model for the European Union that enables researchers and policy analysts to calculate, in a comparable manner, the effects of taxes and benefits on household incomes and work incentives for the population of each country and for the EU as a whole. The EUROMOD programme is managed, maintained and developed by the Institute for Social and Economic Research (ISER) at the University of Essex, with a growing implication of the European Commission since 2017. The resource is updated annually in collaboration with national teams that provide local expertise in their respective tax-benefit systems and, in many cases, the input data for their country. The national teams also make a major contribution to the production of the EUROMOD Country Reports. The aim of the present project EUROMOD Y10 (2019) is to update EUROMOD for Luxembourg for 2019 policies and EU-SILC 2017 data.
