Fiscal adjustment in Pakistan : Some simulation results

Nadeem U. Haque and Peter J. Montiel

This paper compares the likely macroeconomic consequences of achieving fiscal adjustment alternatively through reductions in public consumption or public investment or through increasing tax receipts. The most favorable medium-term growth and inflation outcome are associated with reduced public consumption; the least favorable correspond to reduced public investment. Revenue increases occupy an intermediate position. (DSE)
