European People’s Party

Agree

No, but increase the tax-free allowance

The EPP has historically supported tax policies that are seen as fair and that stimulate economic activity. Increasing the tax-free allowance on inheritance tax could be viewed as a compromise that aligns with these principles, by reducing the tax burden on smaller estates while maintaining the tax for larger ones.

Agree

Yes, it is double taxation

Arguments against double taxation resonate with the EPP's broader economic and fiscal policies, which emphasize efficiency and fairness in taxation. However, the party's commitment to social cohesion and fiscal responsibility might prevent it from fully endorsing the complete abolition of the inheritance tax on these grounds alone.

Slightly agree

Yes

The European People's Party (EPP) generally supports policies that encourage economic growth and wealth creation, which might align with the idea of abolishing the inheritance tax to some extent. However, the EPP also values social cohesion and fiscal responsibility, which could temper its support for a complete abolition.

Neutral

No, reform so the tax rate is based on the wealth of the recipient rather than the deceased

Reforming the inheritance tax so that the rate is based on the wealth of the recipient rather than the deceased could be seen as a measure to increase fairness and social equity, which aligns with some of the EPP's values. However, the party's emphasis on economic growth and its cautious approach to tax increases might limit its enthusiasm for such reforms.

Slightly disagree

No

While the EPP might not strongly advocate for the abolition of inheritance tax due to its potential fiscal implications and the need for social equity, it is also unlikely to fully support maintaining it without any reforms, reflecting its broader commitment to tax efficiency and economic competitiveness.
