The Institute for Fiscal Studies (IFS) is an independent[1][2][3] economic research institute based in London, United Kingdom, which specialises in UK taxation and public policy.[4] It produces both academic and policy-related findings.[5]

The institute's stated aim is to advance education for the benefit of the public by promoting on a "non-political" basis the study and discussion of and the exchange and dissemination of information and knowledge concerning national economic and social effects and influences of existing taxes and proposed changes in fiscal systems.[6]

Its offices are in the Bloomsbury area of Central London close to the British Museum and University College London.
