• Fiscal Reform as a Structural Driver: Assessing Tax Structures and Economic Growth in North Macedonia (2026) · Journal of Applied Economic Sciences (JAES) · doi

  As all the studies also, this study has some limitations. First, although the data are taken from National Bank of North Macedonia there were some complications with the data because they aren’t regularly updated or some of them are partially estimated and we had to take them from other legitimated institutions. Second, North Macedonia is an open economy which is vulnerable to external shocks which can distort the fiscal and growth outcomes, and can have an impact on the reforms and the fiscal system. Third, implementation of the reforms depends also on the political and institutional constraints, which can be faced by resistance from interest groups and realized by some other groups and depend very much on the political will.
