| description |
This paper presents a systematic
analysis of the availability and use of fiscal space in
emerging and developing economies. These economies built
fiscal space in the run-up to the Great Recession of
2008-09, which was then used for stimulus. This reflects a
more general trend over the past three decades, where
availability of fiscal space has been associated with
increasingly countercyclical (or less procyclical) fiscal
policy. However, fiscal space has shrunk since the Great
Recession and has not returned to pre-crisis levels.
Emerging and developing economies face downside risks to
growth and prospects of rising financing costs. In the event
that these cause a sharp cyclical slowdown, policy makers
may need to employ fiscal policy as a possible tool for
stimulus. An important prerequisite for fiscal policy to be
effective is that these economies have the necessary fiscal
space to employ countercyclical policies. Over the
medium-term, credible and well-designed institutional
arrangements, such as fiscal rules, stabilization funds, and
medium-term expenditure frameworks, can help build fiscal
space and strengthen policy outcomes. |
