This paper aims to provide an introduction to the current state of the art of EUROMOD, the European Union tax …-benefit microsimulation model. It explains the original motivations for building a multi-country EU-wide model and summarises its current … organisation. It provides an overview of EUROMOD components, covering its policy scope, the input data, the validation process and …

Using EUROMOD, we cross-validate two types of micro-data presently available in the Grand-Duchy of Luxembourg …

This paper sets out in detail a microsimulation model of the Slovak tax and transfer system that builds on the existing … EUROMOD platform. The objective is to give an overview of the development process, and to discuss differences relative to … EUROMOD. In a validation exercise, we demonstrate that refinements to the current version of the EUROMOD can improve the match …
