Abstract
This report documents MOZMOD, the SOUTHMOD model developed for Mozambique. It describes the different tax-benefit policies in place, how the microsimulation model picks up these different provisions, and the database on which the model runs. It concludes with a validation of MOZMOD results against external data sources.This work was carried out by the Ministry of Economy and Finance of Mozambique in collaboration with the project partners of the SOUTHMOD project. The results presented in this report are derived using MOZMOD version 2.9 running on EUROMOD software.
The MOZMOD model and its documentation in this country report has been prepared within the UNU-WIDER project on ‘SOUTHMOD—simulating tax and benefit policies for development’.
