Approved 12 Apr 2023 by the Nuevas Ideas-led Legislative Assembly, the Ley de Fomento a la Innovación y Manufactura de Tecnologías de la Información y Comunicación establishes a 15-year fiscal-incentive regime for tech-sector investment: full exemption from corporate income tax, municipal taxes on activos, import duties on technology goods, and capital-gains tax on qualifying tech-company shares. Targeted activities include software development, hardware manufacturing, cybersecurity, AI, nano- and biotech, robotics, IoT, and data-centre operation. The law pairs with the Digital Asset Issuance Law 2023, the Bitcoin Office treasury programme, and the broader 2023 tax reform to position El Salvador as a low-tax tech-investment hub.
Per invariant 3, reforms are scored by what they did on each channel-separated axis, not by the party that enacted them. This fingerprint is how the policy-match engine finds historical analogues.
Explicit links are curated by the author. Inferred links are hypotheses in the library that test the same axes this policy moved — the framework's answer to "what does the data say about a policy like this?".
Ranked by axis-fingerprint overlap with this policy. Direction match bolded — those are the closest historical analogues. Shape of the match is what drives policy-outcome comparison, not the country or party label.
