One of the types of tax which has important place in tax system is corporate tax. The main objective of this study is to demonstrate the effect of corruption on corporate tax revenues. In this study, the relationship between corruption and corporate tax revenues is analyzed with system GMM method, using 16 OECD countries’ yearly data for the period of 1996-2010.

Özet

Bireysel çıkar amacıyla sahip olunan yetkinin kötü niyetli olarak kullanılması anlamına gelen yolsuzluk, farklı ülkelerde değişik tanımlamalara sahip olsa da tüm ülkelerin kamu gelir ve gider dengelerini, vergi sistemini ve politikalarını etkilemektedir. Vergi politikalarında önemli bir yere sahip olan vergi türlerinden biri de kurumlar vergisidir. Bu çalışmanın temel amacı, yolsuzlukların kurumlar vergisi gelirlerine olan etkisini ortaya koymaktır. Çalışmada, yolsuzluklar ve kurumlar vergisi gelirleri arasındaki ilişki 16 OECD ülkesinin 1996-2010 yılları arasındaki verileri temel alınarak sistem GMM yöntemiyle analiz edilmiştir. Yapılan bu analizde, yolsuzluk azaldıkça kurumlar vergisi gelirlerinin arttığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.
