The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) has recently issued the Revenue and Statistics 1965-2015 report which highlighted tax revenues, or gross domestic product (GDP) of OECD member-states during this period.
The report showed that from 2014 to 2015 Greece’s GDP increased one percentage point as the country saw some 66 billion euros in tax revenues in 2015, which accounted for 36.8 percent of the GDP, meaning Greece is above the OECD member-states average of 34.3 percent.
In specific categories such as income tax revenues, Greece is still considerably behind the OECD average, accounting for only 8.7 percent of GDP in 2015 compared to the rest of the member-states average of 11.6 percent.
