Extractives Revenue Intelligence Framework

A policy and analytics framework for identifying revenue leakage, transfer pricing exposure, and cost recovery risks in resource sectors.

Framework Summary

The framework supports governments seeking better oversight of pricing, profit allocation, and fiscal risk in extractive industries.

Resource-rich economies face distinct fiscal risks around pricing opacity, production sharing mechanisms, and profit allocation.

This framework sets out a structured analytical approach to cost structures, royalty sensitivity, transfer pricing indicators, and policy vulnerability mapping.

It is intended as a practical bridge between technical tax analysis and broader public finance decision-making.
