OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Using administrative data on the universe of UK taxpayers we study the responsiveness of top earners to tax rates. We leverage two large tax reforms affecting top earners – one in the UK and one in France – to determine the scale of both emigration and immigration responses. Our setting allows us to examine heterogeneity in response by income level and by ex ante probability of migration, for both natives and migrants. We develop a model that rationalises these results, and structurally estimate model parameters to infer the long run stock and migration elasticities.
