dc.description.abstract | In recent years, a large body of empirical literature has explored the influence of fiscal consolidation on the economic growth of nations. In this paper we attempt to explore the growth implications of revenue based fiscal consolidation measures - an area that has been rarely addressed in literature. More specifically, we intend to assess economic growth in response to revenue based fiscal measures (such as taxes, non-tax revenues and grants) and foreign financing of deficits within the context of a medium income country, Sri Lanka. Our results suggest that all revenue based measures and foreign financing have an expansionary effect on economic growth. | |
