Abstract
This paper studies the relationship between the corporate effective tax rate (ETR) and several institutional factors in the G7 and the BRIC countries (Brazil, Russia, India, and China). We use the panel data methodology with a data sample of 25,878 listed firms in 2010–2018. The results show that all the variables analyzed have an effect on the ETR. Some—such as the statutory tax rate, government effectiveness, regulatory quality, rule of law, and open markets—affect all countries, whereas others, such as corruption control and economic freedom, affect only the BRIC countries, and gross domestic product growth, the deficit, and gross debt only affect the G7 countries.
