The Cambodian government allocates its budget from taxes to various ministries and sectors of the economy. The three main sectors are agriculture, industry such as textiles, and tourism services. In 2001, the largest portions of the budget went to social administration (32%), defense and security (29%), and general administration (19%). While economic growth in Cambodia has increased and poverty reduced by 20% according to ADB, 50% still face poverty risks. The group discussion recommends the government allocate more funds to infrastructure, agriculture through dams and credits, electricity investment, and education and health to further support the key economic sectors and reduce poverty.
This document summarizes key information about central public sector enterprises (CPSEs) in India. It notes that there were 5 CPSEs initially in the first five-year plan, growing to 249 by 2010. CPSEs play major roles in key sectors like energy and mining. In 2008-2009, CPSEs contributed over Rs. 151,000 crore to the government and employed nearly 15 lakh people. The share of CPSEs' gross value added to India's GDP was 6.3% in 2009-2010. The document also outlines the different forms of PSUs and their characteristics, contributions, the role of liberalization and competition, disinvestment policies, and efforts to revive sick PSUs
The Make in India initiative aims to promote manufacturing in India to meet domestic and global demand and increase the manufacturing sector's share of GDP to 25%. It provides both Indian and multinational companies opportunities to invest in sectors like automobiles, railways, infrastructure, defense, space, and food processing. The goal is to improve business regulations and generate jobs and foreign investment to transform India into a manufacturing hub.
This document summarizes proposed reforms to achieve sustainable economic growth in India. It discusses reforms in areas like banking, agriculture, infrastructure, and subsidies to fuel domestic consumption. It also recommends removing structural bottlenecks in banking and restructuring regulatory authorities. Institutional reforms in financial institutions and regulating international financial channels are proposed. The document advocates enforcing an impactful anti-corruption law to restore investor confidence as an immediate step for the Indian economy.
Externalities are spill-over effects from production and consumption that are not compensated for through market transactions. They can be positive or negative and cause market failure if social costs and benefits are not accounted for. Private costs and benefits differ from social costs and benefits due to externalities. For example, with negative externalities, social costs exceed private costs, leading to overproduction. Economists value externalities using methods like shadow pricing and willingness to pay. Governments consider net social benefits when deciding between projects to maximize returns to society.
The document analyzes Zimbabwe's labor market dynamics and prospects for recovery. It discusses:
1) Zimbabwe's labor market has historically been dualistic with a small formal sector and large informal sector. The economy contracted significantly from 1997-2008 which increased unemployment and poverty.
2) To promote recovery, the document recommends policies like rehabilitating national statistics collection, revitalizing education and training, developing infrastructure, managing return of skilled diaspora, and exploiting comparative economic advantages.
3) Implementing comprehensive labor market and economic reforms could help Zimbabwe address high unemployment and underemployment by strengthening linkages between the labor market and other sectors of the economy.
The document discusses India's New Economic Policy introduced in 1991. It liberalized the economy by reducing import tariffs and taxes, deregulating markets, and allowing greater foreign investment. Specific changes included liberalizing the economy, privatizing state-owned enterprises, and globalizing trade and investment. Proponents credit NEP for high growth in the 1990s-2000s, while opponents blame it for increased poverty and inequality.

McKinsey conducted a study of the Indian economy in 2001 to identify barriers to growth. They found that distortions in product markets, land markets, and state ownership of businesses were each holding back GDP growth by 0.7-2.3% per year. McKinsey recommended 13 steps to address these barriers, including eliminating licensing restrictions, reducing import duties, privatizing government businesses and utilities, reforming labor laws, and improving land title records.

The document discusses the challenges facing market towns in England and the Sub National Review's recommendations for addressing economic development at local levels. The Sub National Review aims to strengthen local economic growth by giving local authorities greater control over funding and responsibilities. It also emphasizes the role of local and multi-area agreements in integrating economic, planning and transportation strategies. However, the document questions whether the Sub National Review's recommendations are adequate given current economic conditions and the need for resilient market towns that can withstand future economic shocks.
This document discusses minimum prices in markets. It provides examples of minimum price policies, such as price support schemes for farmers. A minimum price is a form of government intervention that sets a price floor in a market. To be effective, the minimum price must be above the normal free-market equilibrium price. If set too low, it will have no impact on the market. The document also discusses debates around introducing minimum prices for specific goods like alcohol.
The National Government of Ecuador has established an ethical economy policy through regulations that promote entrepreneurial activities while respecting the environment, workers, and society. Key aspects of the new policy include a gradual reduction of the income tax rate, tax exemptions for new companies and investments in priority sectors like agriculture and renewable energy, deductions for productivity improvements, and benefits for special economic development zones to attract investment. The goal is to foster sustainable and inclusive economic growth through innovative tax policies and incentives.
This document discusses innovation and dynamic efficiency. It defines innovation as putting new ideas into action, including product, process, and business model innovations. It also discusses Joseph Schumpeter's concept of "creative destruction" where innovation disrupts existing firms. The document then discusses the economic concept of supernormal profits driving firms to innovate and examples where newer firms use innovation to challenge industry leaders through new technologies and business models.
This document discusses different types of economic efficiency in markets: allocative efficiency, productive efficiency, and social efficiency. It also discusses dynamic efficiency through innovation. Allocative efficiency occurs when resources are allocated optimally to maximize total welfare. Productive efficiency means producers minimize waste. Social efficiency means marginal social costs equal marginal social benefits. Dynamic efficiency refers to innovation through new products, processes, and business models. The document concludes by defining market failure as an inefficient allocation of resources that results in a deadweight loss, which can be caused by externalities, public goods, monopolies, and other factors.
European Commission Seminar Lisbon April 2016, Reforms driving the Recoverymsherlock
This document summarizes Marie Sherlock's presentation on structural reforms driving recovery in Ireland. Some key points:
1) The Irish economy has grown 19% in 7 years since its financial crash, though underlying strength remains challenged by banking issues, private debt, Brexit, and external trade.
2) Structural reforms recommended to Ireland included broadening the tax base, introducing a property tax and water charges, reforming legal/medical professions, increasing competition in utilities, reducing the minimum wage, and reforming unemployment benefits and activation programs.
3) Employment growth has recovered to 91% of pre-crisis levels, driven by high-skilled jobs, though over half of new jobs are not high-
New economic policy 1991 AND Indian economyhegde-rohit
The document discusses India's business environment and its integration into the global economy. It outlines key aspects of India's liberalization beginning in 1991 including privatization and globalization. It describes characteristics of globalization and multi-national companies. It also lists sectors that have developed significantly in India and factors both favoring and posing obstacles to further globalization and economic growth. Foreign direct investment trends and the growth of India's industrial, services and other economic sectors are summarized.
Specialisation & the division of labourmattbentley34
Specialization occurs at different levels of economic activity and can provide several key advantages. It involves concentrating production on specific products or tasks. Within businesses and organizations, specialization allows workers to focus on discrete tasks and gain expertise through repetition, improving productivity. Countries and regions also specialize in goods where they have a comparative advantage. While specialization increases output and profits, it can result in repetitive work that lacks variety and skills, potentially reducing worker satisfaction over time.
This document discusses supply-side policies, which are government and market policies aimed at increasing a country's productive capacity. Supply-side policies work to shift the long-run aggregate supply curve to the right by encouraging productivity and economic growth without inflation. The document outlines different types of supply-side policies, including market-based policies like deregulation, privatization, and tax cuts to incentivize work, as well as government-based policies like investing in infrastructure, education, healthcare, and supporting strategic industries.
Supply-side policies aim to improve the long-term productive capacity of an economy by focusing on factors like incentives, skills, competition and infrastructure. Recent UK supply-side policies include welfare reforms, tax incentives for R&D and shale gas, and investments in infrastructure and apprenticeships. Higher productivity is key to improving competitiveness and living standards, but the UK has lagged peers in productivity growth in recent years due to underinvestment and other factors.
Assessing the Macroeconomic Impact of Structural ReformsAbu Musa Nsamba
Italy has undertaken broad structural reforms aimed at improving its weak economy by addressing bottlenecks in product and labor markets. Product market reforms focus on increasing competition through deregulation, while labor market reforms aim to make the labor market more dynamic and inclusive. Simulations suggest that fully implementing these reforms could increase Italy's GDP by over 10% in the long run by reducing prices, boosting productivity, and increasing labor supply. Combining product and labor market reforms has a greater effect than implementing either set of reforms alone. Further fiscal reforms like shifting taxes from labor to consumption could also promote growth.

SA Lockdown: Risk adjusted strategy for economic activity 2020-04-22.pdfSABC News
The document discusses a risk-adjusted strategy for easing lockdown restrictions and restarting economic activity in South Africa. It proposes implementing an alert level system with clearly defined levels of restriction that can be tightened or relaxed based on epidemiological trends. The levels would range from level 1 with low virus spread and high health system readiness to level 5 with high virus spread and low readiness. It also outlines criteria for prioritizing which sectors can resume operations, focusing on sectors with low transmission risk and severe economic impact or high economic value. The criteria are ranked from transmission risk to economic impact to value.

The document discusses four key functions of public finance: allocation, distribution, stabilization, and growth. It also discusses principles for evaluating a good tax system, including revenue adequacy, stability, simplicity, tax neutrality, economic efficiency, and low administration and compliance costs. The document compares tax systems before and after reforms, noting the need to tailor reforms to a country's existing economic system and administrative capabilities.
The document discusses four key functions of public finance:
1) Allocation - Taxation is used to fund public goods like defense and infrastructure that are unprofitable to produce privately.
2) Redistribution - Redistribution through public expenditures is more effective than the tax system alone at redistributing wealth over time in a way that promotes growth.
3) Stabilization - Tax and spending policies aim to keep the actual income level close to potential to promote full employment and price stability.
4) Growth - The most important objective, policies aim to promote capital accumulation, education, and productivity to boost per capita incomes over time.

A macroeconomic analysis of Indian economy in te late 1990sminiverma1
The document analyzes India's macroeconomic performance and policies between 1995-2000 using the aggregate demand-aggregate supply model. It finds that while GDP growth increased overall during this period, output gaps emerged in some years due to both domestic and international factors. To reduce recessions and boost growth, policies focused on increasing aggregate demand through fiscal expansion and monetary easing, as well as increasing aggregate supply by strengthening institutions, infrastructure, education and technology.
This document provides an overview and analysis of the Indian economy based on GST implementation. It discusses key points:
1) GST unifies India's tax system, reducing compliance costs and boosting competitiveness. Several reforms including GST, bankruptcy code and bank recapitalization aim to spur growth.
2) An analysis of early GST data shows a large increase in taxpayers, especially small businesses. It also indicates India's internal trade and formal non-farm jobs are larger than estimated.
3) Moving forward, fully implementing GST and other reforms could help India achieve its growth potential if global conditions remain supportive and oil prices stabilize.
This document outlines an agenda and objectives for a meeting on fiscal consolidation and policy review. It discusses the need for fiscal consolidation due to declining oil production and prices. The main objective of the fiscal consolidation program is to put the budget on a sustainable path and accelerate economic diversification, with targets to double fees and reduce the budget deficit. A policy review will identify structural, policy, and process reforms through analyzing programs, costs, subsidies and fees. The meeting aims to ensure the policy review and fiscal consolidation program stay on track to meet deadlines and expected results. Ministries are expected to refocus on core activities, reformulate policies, improve efficiency, and identify areas for outsourcing, privatization or cost-cutting.

Singapore underwent three distinct phases of economic development between 1965 and 1998. Each phase brought new challenges as the regional and global economic environment changed. The government implemented remedial measures like attracting foreign investment, improving infrastructure, and shifting to skill-oriented and technology industries. These measures helped Singapore diversify its economy, reduce unemployment, and transition to a knowledge-based economy focused on services, finance, and innovation to ensure long-term competitiveness.
This document summarizes a policy in the UK to abolish employers' national insurance contributions for employees under age 21. It will take effect April 6, 2015. Employers will no longer have to pay secondary national insurance contributions on earnings up to the upper earnings limit for employees under 21. The goal is to encourage youth employment. It is estimated to cost £465 million in 2015-2016 but help nearly 1.5 million young employees and support the economy. Employers will have some one-time costs to update payroll systems but benefit from reduced fiscal burdens.

Public and Private sectors
In the short term Governments have to lead the Private
sector by example and strategic funding
Below I suggest 3 policy areas that will make a
difference in the short term and one that won’t
And one long term strategy that should be re-opened for
debate
State Governments face changed circumstances

Three policies for benefit

Labour market policies - Covid and its aftermath will mean short term
through reduced migration at both the lower and high skill level.
This will require:
Ramped up training
Emphasis on IT competency for all levels of workforce; replacement for reduced migrant intake,
utilise under-subscribed University places, stream line courses to reduce training times and cost
Speed up transition to robotics & automation
Emphasis on robotics - to augment skill mix and create jobs [multifaceted – training, skills shortage,
export growth (e.g. agriculture) and provides focus to reshoring efforts] Synergies/QUT report
predicted
Under conservative assumptions the Queensland Economy after 10 years of the rapid uptake of
automation could benefit by a minimum of A$37.4 Billion in GSP and approximately 492950 Jobs
(Synergies/QUT 2018)
Achieve efficiency in service provision -
Direct Government funds to most efficient use
Avoid crowding out of Private sector and duplication of activities
Current situation overstates power and proper role of the State - focus on local business revival not
displacement!

• Initial impact on traded goods and services sector
• A loss in competitiveness and decline in the terms of trade
• Lower productivity growth
• Increased imports, particularly competing imports
• Reduced growth and job opportunities loss of tax revenue base,
reduced Government services
6. Relying on infrastructure - all states and Commonwealth will look to expanding infrastructure
at the same time - in a skill constrained labour market with reduced migration this will lead to
bottlenecks, inflation and budget over runs
Better approach is to bring forward repairs and upgrades to existing infrastructure - less fixed
costs, more likely to employ local labour, greater involvement with local government
