Pages : 128
Book Description
Even as the global economic outlook is stabilizing, fiscal policy continues to struggle with legacies of high debt and deficits, while facing new challenges. Public finances risks are acute this year as over 80 economies and economic areas are holding elections, amid increased support for high government spending. Financing conditions remain challenging, while spending pressures to address structural challenges are becoming more pressing. Countries should boost long-term growth with a well-designed fiscal policy mix to promote innovation more broadly, including fundamental research, and facilitate technology diffusion. Durable fiscal consolidation efforts are needed to safeguard sustainable public finances and rebuild buffers.

ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 104
Book Description
Global public debt is elevated. It is projected to exceed US$100 trillion in 2024 and will rise over the medium term. This chapter shows that risks to the debt outlook are heavily tilted to the upside. In a severely adverse scenario, global debt is estimated to be nearly 20 percentage points of GDP higher three years ahead than the baseline projection, reaching 115 percent of GDP. Much larger fiscal adjustments than currently planned are required to stabilize (or reduce) debt with high probability. Now is an opportune time for rebuilding fiscal buffers and delaying is costly. Rebuilding fiscal buffers in a growth-friendly manner and strengthening fiscal governance is essential to ensure sustainable public finances and financial stability.

Second-Generation Fiscal Rules
Author: Luc Eyraud
Publisher: International Monetary Fund
ISBN: 1484350685
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
Fiscal rule frameworks have evolved significantly in response to the global financial crisis. Many countries have reformed their fiscal rules or introduced new ones with a view to enhancing the credibility of fiscal policy and providing a medium-term anchor. Enforcement and monitoring mechanisms have also been upgraded. However, these innovations have made the systems of rules more complicated to operate, while compliance has not improved. The SDN takes stock of past experiences, reviews recent reforms, and presents new research on the effectiveness of rules. It also proposes guiding principles for future reforms to strike a better balance between simplicity, flexibility, and enforceability. Read the blog

Book Description
The global economy is climbing out from the depths to which it had plummeted during the Great Lockdown in April. But with the COVID-19 pandemic continuing to spread, many countries have slowed reopening and some are reinstating partial lockdowns to protect susceptible populations. While recovery in China has been faster than expected, the global economy’s long ascent back to pre-pandemic levels of activity remains prone to setbacks.

Government and Economic Growth in the 21st Century
Author: Juan E. Castañeda
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1040228488
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 233
Book Description
This book offers an alternative view of the economy – and indeed, society – that does not rely on an ever-expanding government to address the problems which individuals typically face during their lives. The book is a Classical Liberal response to the way leading economies have been (mis)managed in the last three decades and the principles and models that have guided such policies, particularly since the outbreak of the Global Financial Crisis in 2007–09, which has resulted in enlarged government deficits and public debt, as well as more intrusive government regulation and virtually no economic growth. The book does not only criticise the current dominant view which favours ever-growing governments but also puts forward an alternative set of policies and institutions compatible with long-term growth in a free(er) economy. The book is structured around three major themes: (1) what classical liberalism is (or should be) and why it still matters, (2) how state-sponsored capitalism hinders the well-functioning of the market economy as well as being a bad recipe for economic growth and individual freedom, and (3) which are the essential Classical Liberal institutions necessary for a free market economy to flourish. This volume will be accessible not only to specialists in the subject but also to a well-informed audience interested in current economic issues, the role of government in the economy, and how history, traditions, the political system, and economics shape the institutions that help us to explain how markets function and their outcomes.
