At the final meeting of the Financial Committee this year, members agreed that Slovenia faces a high tax burden, while the rights and incentive mechanisms available to taxpayers remain limited. Together with the re-elected Co-Chairs, Žiga Vižintin (Pokojninska družba A) and Luka Gabrovšek (Mastercard), they outlined the key directions of the Committee’s work and identified priority areas for the year ahead.

Particular attention was given to the predictability and stability of the tax and financial environment, which are crucial for the long-term competitiveness of the economy. Members highlighted that current government measures largely result in additional taxation of labor, which may lead to significant negative consequences. As a result, regional functions and higher-paid jobs are increasingly being relocated to neighboring or more tax-favorable countries.

The Financial Committee will therefore continue to actively monitor tax and financial policies and strive for dialogue with decision-makers, with the aim of shaping a more competitive and predictable business environment in Slovenia.
