The Impact of Gross Receipt Taxation on Micro-Sized Firms
Kristjan Markovc
University of Naples Federico II, Department of Economics and Satistics, Naples, Italy
The resurgence of gross receipt taxation (“GRT”) as a means of securing reliable tax revenue and simplifying administration raises concerns about its impact on entrepreneurship and micro-sized firms. Using a 2013 legislative change in Slovenia as a natural experiment, this study examines the effects of GRT on micro-sized firms through a robust methodological approach, including difference-in-differences, fuzzy regression discontinuity, and propensity score matching. The findings indicate a statistically significant positive impact of GRT, but only for sole proprietors, with no effect on LLCs. The most plausible mechanism behind these results is improved tax compliance rather than increased investment or financial relief. By incentivizing firms to enter the simplified tax regime, GRT may encourage previously non-compliant businesses to report their true financial performance, leading to an observed rise in gross receipts. However, limitations in external validity persist due to firms’ self-selection into GRT taxation. These insights offer critical implications for policymakers considering GRT as a tool for revenue collection while balancing economic incentives for small business compliance.
Unconventional Monetary Policy and Corporate Bond Underwriting - Evidence from ECB’s Asset Purchase Program
Kristjan Markovc
University of Naples Federico II, Department of Economics and Satistics, Naples, Italy
This paper investigates the impact of the European Central Bank’s Corporate Sector Purchase Program (CSPP) on underwritten bonds within the Eurozone, employing panel data and a difference-in-differences framework. The analysis reveals that CSPP eligibility substantially reduces underwriting costs for eligible firms, with the most pronounced effects observed among those issuing ‘A’-rated bonds. This cost reduction facilitates access to financing under more favorable conditions, thereby enhancing the competitiveness of these firms in the capital markets. Furthermore, the study finds significant spill-over effects, where even non-targeted bonds experience shifts in underwriting cost structures, suggesting that the CSPP not only meets its targeted objectives but also triggers broader market adjustments. These insights underscore the program’s efficiency in lowering financing costs while highlighting the complex interplay between targeted policy interventions and overall market dynamics.

Public emergencies significantly impact the stability of the financial system. Leveraging the first COVID-19 outbreak in Hubei Province, China, as a case study, this paper employs a difference-in-difference (DID) model to investigate these effects. The analysis demonstrates the impact of public emergencies on bank risk and explores the role of digital transformation in mitigating these risks. The findings indicate that public emergencies increase bank risk; however, digital transformation can mitigate challenges to credit operations, thereby reducing this risk. Furthermore, the study reveals that only banks’ passive risk-taking is affected by public emergencies, while active risk-taking remains unaffected. This paper advocates for commercial banks to accelerate digital transformation initiatives to control and reduce risks during public emergencies.

“[1] De liberalibus studiis quid sentiam scire desideras: nullum suspicio, nullum in bonis numero quod ad aes exit. Meritoria artificia sunt, hactenus utilia si praeparant ingenium, non detinent. Tamdiu enim istis inmorandum est quamdiu nihil animus agere maius potest; rudimenta sunt nostra, non opera. [2] Quare liberalia studia dicta sint vides: quia homine libero digna sunt. Ceterum unum studium vere liberale est quod liberum facit, hoc est sapientiae, sublime, forte, magnanimum: cetera pusilla et puerilia sunt. An tu quicquam in istis esse credis boni quorum professores turpissimos omnium ac flagitiosissimos cernis? Non discere debemus ista, sed didicisse.”
