Project Description
Summary:
View help for Summary
We analyze the effects of top tax rates on international migration of
football players in 14 European countries since 1985. Both country
case studies and multinomial regressions show evidence of strong
mobility responses to tax rates, with an elasticity of the number of
foreign (domestic) players to the net-of-tax rate around one (around
0.15). We also find evidence of sorting effects (low taxes attract highability
players who displace low-ability players) and displacement
effects (low taxes on foreigners displace domestic players). Those
results can be rationalized in a simple model of migration and taxation
with rigid labor demand.
