Title: Fiscal Space and Increasing Fiscal Resilience
Authors: ADB; Aizenman, Joshua; Jinjarak, Yothin; Nguyen, Hien Thi Kim; Park, Donghyun
Issue Date: May-2019
Description: This paper compares fiscal cyclicality across advanced and developing economies in terms of geography and income levels between 1960 and 2016. It identifies factors that explain government spending and tax-policy cyclicality. On average, a more indebted government spends more in good times and cuts back spending indifferently compared with low-debt economies in bad times. The sovereign wealth funds of economies have a countercyclical effect in our estimation. The analysis depicts a significant economic impact of an interest rate rise on fiscal space: a 10% increase in the public debt–tax base ratio is associated with an upper bound of a 5.6% increase in government-spending procyclicality.
