In 2003 interest payments absorbed an average of 18% of the subregion's total tax revenue. In these open economies, whose enterprises need to become more internationally competitive, fiscal policy is crucial both for financing the necessary physical and social infrastructure and for combating the poverty that still afflicts roughly 40% of the population. The economic development of Central America therefore needs second-generation reforms to modernize its tax systems, in order to increase revenue by about four percentage points of GDP. 2014-01-02T18:44:06Z 2014-01-02T18:44:06Z 2005-12 Texto Sección o Parte de un Documento http://hdl.handle.net/11362/11115 LC/G.2287-P en CEPAL Review CEPAL Review 87 application/pdf AMERICA CENTRAL CENTRAL AMERICA |
