The Future of Resource Taxation: A Roadmap
Challenges with mining revenue collection, increasing automation and digitisation of the mining sector, the opportunities and risks associated with low carbon minerals, climate change, COVID-19, and more, are all reasons to re-think how resource-rich developing countries benefit financially from their mineral resources.
ATAF, in partnership with IGF, has established a project on The Future of Resource Taxation. Over the next 12 months, we will investigate how the dominant fiscal regime for mining, based on taxes and royalties, can be improved, as well as alternative options available to resource-rich countries to maximise the returns from their mineral wealth.
