The Robin Hood tax commonly refers to a package of financial transaction taxes (FTT) proposed by a campaigning group of civil society NGOs. Campaigners have suggested the tax could be implemented globally regionally or unilaterally by individual nations. Conceptually similar to the Tobin tax it would affect a wider range of asset classes including the purchase and sale of stocks bonds commodities unit trusts mutual funds and derivatives such as futures and options.
