Economies in the Western Balkans region have a small income base that hampers governments&#8217; capacity to promote inclusive growth.<\/p>\n<p>Even though COVID-19 is bringing a new wave of digitization to the region, there seems to be a need for capacity mobilization to encourage the development of new ways of collecting revenue, especially small business taxes. EU countries have a larger revenue base, which has allowed them to expand services to the population and implement relevant governance reforms over the years but face the challenge of increasing their collection at the same pace as spending. Theirs.<\/p>\n<p>Economic growth combined with fiscal discipline and good public debt management seems to have affected Serbia, Albania and Bosnia and Herzegovina, respectively. However, high levels of public debt remain a present risk in most of the countries of the region.<\/p>\n<p><em>Budget revenues<\/em> in WB6 in 2022 show a decrease of -0.9% of GDP. In 2021, budget revenues reached the level of 35.6% of GDP and in 2022 at a lower level (34.8% of GDP). Budget revenues are lower than in the period before the pandemic (35.4% of GDP).<\/p>\n<p>We see the highest increase in budget revenues only in Albania (as much as 0.6% of GDP). Kosovo has an unchanged indicator of budget revenues in relation to GDP.<\/p>\n<div style=\"white-space: pre; overflow: auto; width: 100%;\">\n<table width=\"538\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td colspan=\"3\" width=\"444\">Tab.1\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Budget revenues in WB6, 2021 &#8211; 2022<\/td>\n<td width=\"94\">% of GDP<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>COUNTRIES<\/td>\n<td>2021<\/td>\n<td>2022<\/td>\n<td>Differences<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Montenegro<\/td>\n<td>43.0<\/td>\n<td>38.8<\/td>\n<td>-4.2<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Serbia<\/td>\n<td>43.3<\/td>\n<td>43.0<\/td>\n<td>-0.3<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Kosovo<\/td>\n<td>27.8<\/td>\n<td>27.8<\/td>\n<td>0.0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Bosnia-Herzegovina<\/td>\n<td>42.4<\/td>\n<td>41.5<\/td>\n<td>-0.9<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>North Macedonia<\/td>\n<td>30.2<\/td>\n<td>29.9<\/td>\n<td>-0.3<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Albania<\/td>\n<td>27.0<\/td>\n<td>27.6<\/td>\n<td>0.6<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>WESTERN BALKANS<\/td>\n<td>35.6<\/td>\n<td>34.8<\/td>\n<td>-0.9<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Source: IMF, MoF<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<p>Serbia has a decrease in budget revenues by -0.3% of GDP.

The main reason in the case of Montenegro is exposure to the dependence of tourism, with a major impact on the administration of tax revenues.<\/p>\n<p>In 2022, <em>tax revenues<\/em> account for 93% of total budget revenues.
