Effect of
Austerity on
Economy
Presented by:
Abhishek Sao (PGDIM-22)
1502008
AUSTERITY
Definition:
• Set of economic
policies
implemented
with the aim of
reducing
government
budget deficits
Objective
• Reduce
government
spending and
increase taxes
• Hopes to ‘restore
confidence’,
improve
countries fiscal
position and
enable long-term
recovery
Negative
Impact
• Often leads to fall
in aggregate
demand, higher
unemployment
& low economic
growth
• Can lead to fall in
real GDP and
higher Debt to
GDP ratio
Positive
Impact
• Can reduce
budget deficits
without any
negative impact
DETERMINANTS
Labor Market Flexibility
• Easier to implement and benefit from austerity when the flexibility is high
Spending
• If govt increases retirement age, it can increase labour supply and productivity
• If govt cuts spending on infrastructure, it can lower demand and growth
Monetary policy
• Lowering of interest rates and increasing money supply can balance the deflationary effect of austerity
Exchange rate
• Negative effects can be assuaged by devaluing of currency (Euro countries suffered because they do not
have direct control on currency)
Global growth
• Austerity will negatively effect if the global market is going down (Exports affected)
IMPACT
• Cut in govt spending and increased tax rate  Lower Aggregate Demand & Output growth 
Higher unemployment
• Media coverage of ‘austerity measures’ reduces business confidence
• Fear of job losses  More savings & less spending  Low output growth
Lower Demand
• Fall in aggregate demand  Lower inflationary pressure
• Fall in wages  Low inflation
Lower Inflation
• Austerity can lead business to reduce costs hence promoting competitiveness
• Can prove beneficial for exports (Ireland moved from trade deficit to surplus due to increased
competitiveness after austerity)
Competitiveness
IMPACT
SUMMARY
• Higher taxes and lower spending will lead to an improvement in the
government's budget deficit
• If austerity measures cause lower economic growth, the government will
also see a fall in cyclical tax revenues
• If austerity measures cause unemployment, it will require higher
government spending on benefits
Effects observed
• Debt to GDP in UK increased after
austerity measures
• Growth declined further in Eurozone
countries after austerity
THANK YOU

Impact of Austerity on Economy

  • 1. Effect of Austerity on Economy Presented by: Abhishek Sao (PGDIM-22) 1502008
  • 2. AUSTERITY Definition: • Set of economic policies implemented with the aim of reducing government budget deficits Objective • Reduce government spending and increase taxes • Hopes to ‘restore confidence’, improve countries fiscal position and enable long-term recovery Negative Impact • Often leads to fall in aggregate demand, higher unemployment & low economic growth • Can lead to fall in real GDP and higher Debt to GDP ratio Positive Impact • Can reduce budget deficits without any negative impact
  • 3. DETERMINANTS Labor Market Flexibility • Easier to implement and benefit from austerity when the flexibility is high Spending • If govt increases retirement age, it can increase labour supply and productivity • If govt cuts spending on infrastructure, it can lower demand and growth Monetary policy • Lowering of interest rates and increasing money supply can balance the deflationary effect of austerity Exchange rate • Negative effects can be assuaged by devaluing of currency (Euro countries suffered because they do not have direct control on currency) Global growth • Austerity will negatively effect if the global market is going down (Exports affected)
  • 4. IMPACT • Cut in govt spending and increased tax rate  Lower Aggregate Demand & Output growth  Higher unemployment • Media coverage of ‘austerity measures’ reduces business confidence • Fear of job losses  More savings & less spending  Low output growth Lower Demand • Fall in aggregate demand  Lower inflationary pressure • Fall in wages  Low inflation Lower Inflation • Austerity can lead business to reduce costs hence promoting competitiveness • Can prove beneficial for exports (Ireland moved from trade deficit to surplus due to increased competitiveness after austerity) Competitiveness
  • 5. IMPACT SUMMARY • Higher taxes and lower spending will lead to an improvement in the government's budget deficit • If austerity measures cause lower economic growth, the government will also see a fall in cyclical tax revenues • If austerity measures cause unemployment, it will require higher government spending on benefits
  • 6. Effects observed • Debt to GDP in UK increased after austerity measures • Growth declined further in Eurozone countries after austerity
