World Bank Global Tax Program Trust Fund

The World Bank Global Tax Program (GTP) will deliver support to Australia's developing partner countries to strengthen their tax policies and administration and engagement with the international tax agenda. Australia's policy objectives in this area are driven by the recognition that increasing domestic resource mobilisation is integral to financing public expenditure needs and in many countries in the region, tax to GDP ratios are too low to fund infrastructure and social sector needs. The total value of this investment is $10.0 million over 4 years, starting 2017-18.
