Windfall tax

A windfall tax is a higher tax rate on profits that ensue from a sudden windfall gain to a particular company or industry.

There have been windfall taxes in various countries across the world, including Australia,[1] Italy,[2][3][nb 1] and Mongolia (2006–2009).[5][6] During the 2021–2023 global energy crisis, policy specialists at the International Monetary Fund recommended that governments institute permanent windfall profits taxes targeted at economic rents in the energy sector, excluding renewable energy to prevent hindering its further development.[7]
