The economy of Auresia is among the world's largest. With a strong focus on trade and business, the nation has evolved into an attractive hub for investment and opportunities. It maintains connections with numerous nations and engages extensively in buying, selling, and trading in global markets.
Overview
Auresia's economy benefits from mixed government oversight and regulation while allowing substantial flexibility for corporate operations. However, stringent standards are in place to penalize any attempt to exploit the system. The government remains neutral towards business as much as possible unless required to address grievances or criminal activities.
Taxation
Taxation in the nation is structured through a series of rates:
- Personal income is taxed on a progressive scale. It can be as low as 0% or as high as 30%.
- Corporate gains are taxed at 15% without a cap.
- Investment gains are taxed at 5% without a cap.
Rules
Domestic firms are prohibited from relocating operations outside the nation for the purposes of tax reduction or avoidance. Foreign firms are disallowed from routing gains earned within the nation to foreign entities to reduce tax liability, leading to an increased taxation levy as a penalty. For overdue taxes exceeding one year, property or assets equivalent to the debt value can be seized by the state for liquidation. This applies to both individuals and firms. Appeals against asset seizure for debt payment are not permitted.
Special Situations
- Newly-established firms receive a 20% tax reduction in their first year.
- Religious institutions and corporations gain no exemptions.
- There are no gift, estate, or death taxes.
Loans
Auresia's regulations on loans prevent predatory practices and toxic debt expansion. Secured loans, often used for housing purchases, require collateral assets worth at least one-fifth of the loan value. Monthly payments cannot exceed one-quarter of the borrower's income. Lenders cannot foreclose on defaulted loans before three months past the default date.
Bonds
Bonds in the empire are issued through underwriting or auction. Government bonds, known as Imperial Lion Bonds, are issued in four investment levels. The rate of return depends on bond terms and market price. Private placement bonds avoid underwriting costs but may not be tradeable in the bond market.
Currency and Central Bank
The valuation of the empire's currency, the florin, is regulated by the Ministry of Finance. The Imperial Treasury manages money flow and collateral.
Finance
The Auresian finance sector covers savings, debit and credit accounts, stock investments, bonds, and loans.
Health Care
The health care sector maintains medical services for the empire's citizens.
Agriculture and Industry
Agriculture, light and heavy industries, energy, and transportation contribute to Auresia's economy.
International Trade
The empire engages in international trade with strict oversight.
