description |
Argentina's government has resorted
to fiscal policy as a countercyclical tool to mitigate the
negative impact of the current economic downturn on
aggregate demand. Empirical results based on a vector error
correction model suggest, however, that the fiscal
multiplier is relatively small and short-lived. This could
reflect a number of factors, including the higher propensity
of households to save during the economic downturn, the
implementation lag of public expenditures, particularly of
capital expenditures, and the narrow tax base that limits
the impact of countercyclical revenue measures on domestic demand. |
