Interregional redistribution in the Czech Republic
KOLÁŘÍKOVÁ, Veronika
The diploma thesis deals with the interregional redistribution in the Czech Republic. The aim is to describe and evaluate the tools and the extent of the interregional redistribution in the Czech Republic. The data from the websites of the Czech Statistical Office and Monitor of the Ministry of Finance of the Czech Republic are used for this purpose, which are evaluated at the NUTS 3 level, and include data for the relevant regional authority and municipality within the region in the period 2003-2019. Mainly the development of the fiscal capacity of the regions over time is evaluated. Subsequently, the shared taxes are given in millions of CZK for individual regions, including municipalities, and are compared with the fiscal capacity of the region. Furthermore, the shared taxes are recalculated per capita and expressed as the percentage of the average and, together with the regional GDP per capita as the percentage of the average, displayed in a graph. Similarly, the transfer revenues are examined. Finally, the shared taxes and the transfer revenues for individual regions, including municipalities, are added up together and presented in millions of CZK and per capita, and compared with the fiscal capacity of the region. The work does not deal with the fiscal needs of individual territorial self-governing units. It was confirmed that the shared taxes and the transfer revenues are tools for fiscal redistribution in the Czech Republic. The extent of the interregional fiscal redistribution has changed over time.
