The research interests all belong to what can be broadly defined as “DSSOLHG ZHOIDUH DQDO\VLV”: assessment of the impact of tax reforms, analyzing changes in inequality and/or poverty, investigating the sensitivity of the assessment to the concepts used. Since the focus is on distributional issues, most research is based on the empirical analysis of microdata: household budget surveys, household income surveys, and administrative data. I applied the methodology of “PDUJLQDOLQGLUHFWWD[UHIRUP” to data of the Belgian budget survey (with E. Schokkaert). In this context I also estimated detailed GHPDQGV\VWHPVfor Belgium (both Rotterdam, AID and QUAID systems, under weakly separable preferences to disaggregate as far as possible). This research has resulted in the construction of a PLFURVLPXODWLRQ PRGHO IRU LQGLUHFW WD[HV $67(5 (started in september 1992, joint work with mainly G. Van Camp and F. Vermeulen). This is a user-friendly program, that was disseminated in 1994. Since then, it has been used by academics, civil service and nonprofit organisations. One of its distinguishing features is the very elaborate evaluation module, which allows to assess the impact of the reforms on different groups in the population by means of the most up-to-date analytical tools of distributional analysis. A second version (ASTER 2.0) was released in May 1995. The program was thoroughly actualised in 2000, through the actualisation of the database, but also through the improvement and fine-tuning of the simulation routines. There is a lot of interest for this ASTER 3.0, not only in academic environments in Belgium and abroad, but also in policy preparing research in Belgium. I plan an update of the model in the fall of 2005 (incorporating the most recently available budegt survey). In 2003 I started the construction of a much EURDGHU WD[ EHQHILW PLFURVLPXODWLRQ PRGHO IRU %HOJLXP 0,026,6 , covering besides indirect taxes also personal income taxes, social transfers, and social security contributions. This is joint work with the university of Antwerp (Bea Cantillon of the

Centre of Social Policy) and the university of Liège (Sergio Perelman) with whom we form a research team of which we in Leuven take the coordination (joint work with Guy Van Camp). Almost in parallel I constructed a first version of a genuine PLFURVLPXODWLRQ PRGHO IRU WKH 5XVVLDQ WD[DQGEHQHILWV\VWHPduring a stay in WIDER , Helsinki (in collaboration with T. Shorrocks). The model is available on line for interested users: http://www.wider.unu.edu/darts_web/splash.php. The experience on the Russian microdata was also exploited in a study of the distributional consequences of the transition to full cost coverage in the KRXVLQJDQGXWLOLWLHVVHFWRULQ5XVVLD (work commissioned by the World Bank). A lot of research effort has been devoted to link different sources of data by means of VWDWLVWLFDO PDWFKLQJtechniques (work with Guy Van Camp and Kris De Swerdt). In order to simulate simultaneous reforms in personal income taxes and indirect taxes, one requires a single data set with expenditure and income figures. Such a data set is not available in Belgium. On the one hand there is a Household Budget Survey, with very detailed expenditure figures, and hence well suited to simulate indirect taxes. On the other hand, there is an administrative fiscal data set with detailed income figures from the annual tax forms, entered by taxpayers. This, evidently, is the obvious candidate to simulate personal income taxes. These data sets cannot be linked in an exact way since there is no exact overlapping information such as a unique identification number. But, both data sets contain overlapping variables that we have exploited in statistical matching techniques to construct an integrated data set for Belgium with both expenditure figures and gross income figures for 1998. The datasets available have been used to assess the distributional impact of a VKLIW RI SHUVRQDO LQFRPH WD[HV WR LQGLUHFW WD[HV, and to measure the contribution to the SURJUHVVLYLW\in the Belgian personal income taxes, of different components (deductions, allowances, tax credits, rate structure). In 2001 we repeated the analysis by matching the budget survey of 2000 with income data in the fiscal forms of 2001. We improved the methodology by using VHPLSDUDPHWULF(QJHO FXUYHV to impute expenditures (work with Kris De Swerdt). In 2003 we made a descriptive analysis of the Belgian KRXVLQJPDUNHWon the basis of the 1997-98 Belgian budget survey (work with B. Capéau). A formula was designed to calculate the XVHU FRVW RI RZQHU RFFXSLHGKRXVHV (about 70% of Belgian households are owners), which embraces the main aspects of the Belgian tax treatment of housing. This formula was used to calculate the impact-effect of a change in the transaction tax tariffs on houses bought, keeping the housing decisions (ownership, timing and size of the investment) constant. This methodology was used to make a first welfare analysis of the recent reduction of registration fees in Flanders. We continued this work in 2004 (work with Bart Capéau and Frederic vermeulen) by estimating an RUGHUHGORJLWPRGHO to explain the timing in the life cycle of the first move to homeownership. The model has been used to simulate the impact of the lowering of the registration fees in Flanders. In 2005 we investigated how to improve upong the existing practice of house price indices by estimating a KHGRQLFSULFHLQGH[IRUKRXVLQJVDOHV sold on the secondary market in Belgium (work with Kris De Swerdt). Finally, recent research includes an investigation of the sensitivity of GLVWULEXWLRQDO PHDVXUHPHQW to different choices of the income unit: household, person, or equivalent persons, application of different methodologies to take into account GLIIHUHQFHV LQ QHHGV (work with E. Ooghe), an assessment of changes in the ZRUOG LQFRPH GLVWULEXWLRQ, and the different views about it (work with Bart Capéau), and an analysis of the distributional consequences of some IODWWD[SURSRVDOV for Belgium.
