Fiscal Sustainability in Developing Asia
Adams, Charles; Ferrarini, Benno; Park, Donghyun | June 2010
Abstract
Charles Adams, Benno Ferrarini, and Donghyun Park empirically examine the conventional wisdom that developing Asia has been fiscally responsible in the past. Their evidence confirms that the region’s public finances are generally healthy as a result of historical fiscal discipline. Nevertheless, their forward-looking scenario analysis indicates that failure to withdraw the region’s anticrisis fiscal stimulus in a timely manner may jeopardize fiscal sustainability in the future.
