About Us
The Revenue Development Foundation (RDF) is a non-profit consultancy supporting governments to efficiently manage and increase their domestic revenues. The Foundation provides advisory services and technical solutions to governments in developing countries focused on improving revenues from sources such as natural resources and property taxes.
The Foundation firmly believes that governments able to manage and mobilize revenue will be able to lead their own development agendas in a sustainable manner, strengthen democratic pressures on government accountability and reduce foreign aid dependency.
The goal of the Foundation was to support governments in low-income countries to mobilize US $2 Billion in domestic revenues by 2020, which was achieved in early 2021.
RDF is incorporated in Norway as organisation no. 993 907 197 (Stiftelsen Revenue Development)
