    PRODUCTION AND INCOME: INPUT-OUTPUT AND SOCIAL ACCOUNTING MATRIX APPROACHES

    No full text
    The System of National Accounts (SNA) and the evolution of satellite accounts allowed the development of increasingly realistic and disaggregated macroeconomic models for policy design. The Social Accounting Matrix (SAM), the sophisticated tool within SNA, provides the integration of non-economic and territorial elements into the circular flow of income. As economic policy objectives are often broad and interact with social factors, such as household types and territorial characteristics, the SAM represents a valuable database for the policy maker, being able to capture the complexity of modern economies, both in aggregate and disaggregated terms. Extended multisectoral models based on SAMs offer detailed insights, revealing the interrelationships among industries, primary factors and institutional sectors. These models recently gained renewed attention for analysing policy impacts, especially in contexts like environmental policies, natural disasters, and pandemics

    Regional double dividend from environmental tax reform: an application for Italian economy

    The greenhouse effect forces national Governments to design environmental tax policies for facing not only global warming but also the negative economic consequences resulting from the reduction of emissions such as a negative change of GDP. This paper aims at verifying the impact of an environmental fiscal reform able to attain both the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and the regional double dividend. We have decided to follow the computable general equilibrium approach for modelling the multisectoral income circular flow in the case of a bi-regional economy as described by a Social Accounting Matrix we have built for this purpose. The tools of analysis we chose represent suitable and consistent instruments in order to quantify the effects of an environmental tax reform. They can in fact highlight the possible differences in responses between macro regions in terms of regional GDP changes, regional prices and regional employment rate. In fact, the extended multisectoral framework, on which the model is developed, represents economic activities, imperfect labour market and institutional sectors behaviours in each macro region. The simulations performed concern the introduction of a progressive and proportional green tax on each type of commodity according to the corresponding level of CO2 emissions. Furthermore all simulations introduce a recycling scheme of green tax revenues, whose aim is reducing both the income tax and the regional tax on activities (IRAP). The application is done on a bi-regional Social Accounting Matrix for Italy for the year 2003

    Key sectors for gender pay gap reduction: a multiplier effects analysis for Chilean economy

    Recently, the Chilean government embarked on a phase of redefining fiscal policies with the aim of addressing gender pay equity (Equidad Salarial). In this context, this paper emphasizes the crucial role that a disaggregated and general equilibrium approach can play in supporting the Chilean policymakers, particularly in the formulation of policies for the reduction of gender pay gap in specific sectors and the integration of female employment. The analysis is carried out using a gender Computable General Equilibrium model based on the gender Social Accounting Matrix for Chile. The simulations reproduce an expansion of final demand for investment by commodity under different assumptions on the elasticity of substitution between male and female labour. The results suggest that some productive sectors, more than others, have aptitudes to reduce the gender pay gap and stimulate employment and economic growth, if stimulated by fiscal policies
