The extra-profit tax narrows the room for maneuver of businesses
At its general meeting on May 27, 2022, the National Trade Association reviewed the expected consequences of the introduction of the extra-profit tax announced by the government a day earlier in trade.
In the current tense economic environment, it is a fundamental common interest to maintain security of supply. The severe situation is due to, among other things, higher-than-expected inflation, significant increases in producer prices, rising energy prices and labor shortages.
Trade’s own operating costs, and in particular the costs of the most costly purchases, have risen at a faster pace than inflation in the recent past.
