Title
Does financial inclusion create tax revenue for the government? (a panel study on Asian countries)
Abstract/Description
This research analyses the impact of financial inclusion on the tax revenue. For this purpose, we make a model based on Asian countries in which we use tax revenue as a dependent variable by taking the period from 2004 to 2017, while explanatory variables are Financial Inclusion, FDI, Saving and GDP. For the estimation, we used the cointegration technique. The result concludes that tax revenue and FI is significantly, and positively related to each other. If the index value of financial inclusion increases in an economy, then tax revenue will also increase for the government.
