Institute for Fiscal Studies

The Institute for Fiscal Studies (IFS) is an independent research organization in the UK that analyzes government spending, taxation, and public finances. It provides objective, data-driven insights to help policymakers, media, and the public understand economic policies and their impact on society. By studying how public money is allocated and its effects, the IFS promotes transparency and informed debate on fiscal issues, ensuring that decisions are based on rigorous analysis rather than politics or speculation.
