Assessment of redistribution policies in Singapore by Ang, Xin Rui, Cham, Zhi An, Peh, Earl Hao Kien

“…Specifically, our study makes adjustments to policy expenditure and recipient profiles based on income and annual value (AV) of homes to address the research questions: What is the impact of an increase in consumption tax on inequality such as the recently announced increase in Goods and Services Taxes (GST) from 7% to 9%? Would altering ComCare’s generosity affect redistribution through change in inequality? …”
