For the sixth year in a row, ATOZ Tax Advisers have commissioned and made public a survey. Each year’s survey has a different theme but always focuses on Luxembourg trends – as industry thought leaders, we’re always looking to gain a deeper understanding of our local environment.
In the past, we have wanted to find out what Luxembourg professionals and individuals think about taxes (2015), how the surrounding population in the Greater Region views Luxembourg (2016), how Luxembourg residents feel about money and wealth (2017), how the so-called “millennial generation” perceives private business and entrepreneurship (2018) and most recently, our 2019 survey focused on the different viewpoints of the Luxembourg population regarding climate change. We don’t drive opinion or push an agenda; we simply hope that the results of these surveys contribute to a larger discussion between different stakeholders of our country and give new insights into our local landscape.
This year’s survey subject relates to new challenges and struggles that we all had to face – and are still facing. Our government had to address the health crisis and introduce drastic measures to limit the spread of the virus, which forced us to adapt to the situation and review some of our plans and ways of living. Globally, the role of government increased massively in many fields, including health, the economy and education.
In this respect, our latest investigation focuses on the perception of government by the Luxembourg population. We wanted to see what residents think about the role of government and how, in the future, could such challenges be better tackled. This survey aims to highlight where the priorities of Luxembourg residents lie, and to draw on trends that are emerging within the population with regards to government and its influence on various aspects of their lives.
This report is a summary of the results but also should be read as our interpretation of the results, with an inevitable element of subjectivity. The results of the survey are made freely available to interested parties, so others are free to draw their own conclusions, thus contributing to a healthy debate on this topic
