Government Capital Spending and Financing and Its Impact on Private Investment In Kenya
Author: Samuel Oyieke
Publisher:
ISBN: 9789966023087
Category : Expenditures, Public
Languages : en
Pages : 34
Book Description
This study examined the relationship between public investment and private investment financing in Kenya from 1964 to 2006, using an error correction framework and data. The study showed that investment in agriculture had a significant positive effect while domestic debt had a significant negative impact. Political risk, real exchange rate, external debt and tax insignificantly had negative impact. Investment in infrastructure had insignificant positive impact. These findings revealed important policy implications that investment in agriculture crowds-in private investment while domestic debt crowds it out significantly.

Kenya--re-investing in Stabilization and Growth Through Public Sector Adjustment
Author: World Bank
Publisher: World Bank Publications
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
This report discusses Kenya's recent growth and stabilization performance, how it was affected by the Central Government and the parastatal sector, and why comprehensive civil service and parastatal reforms are urgently needed. Although economic growth has been close to five percent per year since 1985, it has been insufficient to significantly raise per capita incomes and create enough jobs for Kenya's young and rapidly growing population. In the past, the public sector has absorbed these workers more quickly than the private sector. However, this is unsustainable, partly because it has created destabilizing fiscal imbalances and stifled the private sector's supply response to on-going sectoral reforms. Furthermore, growth has been relatively inefficient depending more on additional resources than increases in productivity. This has been especially true in the parastatal sector where resources are used so inefficiently that if they were transferred to the private sector, the economy could grow faster by about two percentage points a year. To prevent growth from slowing further, the Government needs to stabilize the economy by dealing with the underlying forces which drive Government expenditure. To do so, as well as tackle the slower onset problem of deteriorating public sector efficiency, the Government should streamline its functions and organizational structure to eliminate duplication and redundancies, downsize staff, and reform pay and personnel procedures.
