Back to the future: fiscal responses to lower oil prices (Part 2)
This report is currently unavailable
Report summary
In Part 2 of this analysis we consider the drivers for future fiscal changes. While lower prices may lead some governments to reduce fiscal demands in an attempt to maintain investment, others may want to increase their share of the lower revenue available. Focusing on the 15 most important countries for international companies, we compare their current fiscal terms and circumstances and assess the likely future direction of fiscal policy.
