Day 3
With official development assistance (ODA) projected to fall in 2025, developing countries will need to raise their own financing to support long-term development. Thirty-four of 54 EITI implementing countries are fiscally dependent on extractive revenues, yet profit shifting, illicit financial flows and limited fiscal options undermine effective taxation. Transparency and global disclosure initiatives - such as the EITI and Opening Extractives - support domestic revenue mobilisation by strengthening accountability and reducing revenue leakages. This panel, moderated by EITI Executive Director Mark Robinson, explores how developing countries can optimise taxation of their extractive industries as demand for critical energy transition minerals rises.
