Slovakia has introduced a unique tax to easily fleece companies and citizens
In its recent announcement of a consolidation package, the Slovak government took inspiration from Hungary in one of its measures and wants to introduce a tax on banking transactions that targets companies. Roklen’s chief economist Pavel Peterka described the introduction of the tax as a bad solution to a bad idea, which is associated with a number of problems and will be paid for not only by companies but also by citizens themselves. The tax is also viewed similarly in Slovakia, where employers’ representatives say that each Slovak could lose almost EUR 300 a year.
