Book excerpt: This study examines how monetary and fiscal policies are implemented in Caribbean small states, tracing the differences and similarities in tax structure, current expenditure and current revenues. It shows the impact of monetary policy on inflation and the importance of exchange rate regimes to the effectiveness of monetary policy in the region. The authors show that fiscal stabilisation in the region is very low and as such countries within the region would benefit from insurance mechanisms and stabilisation funds.

Book excerpt: The government's fiscal and institutional reform agenda is supported by the Bank through the series of four single-tranche Fiscal and Institutional Adjustment Loans (FIAL). The objectives of this series of loans are two: first, to promote reforms addressing fiscal rigidities necessary to attain the substantial fiscal adjustment underlying sustainable macroeconomic stability; and second, to improve the provision of public services and establish the institutional basis for higher efficiency and accountability in public expenditure. The specific objectives of the FIAL program are to: (i) increase tax revenue and reduce distortions in the tax system; (ii) modernize the tax administration; (iii) promote the development of a sound fiscal responsibility legal framework; (iv) reduce losses and generate revenues through improved asset management; (v) prevent massive losses to the State from judicial claims; (vi) improve budget management with modem tools and legal reforms; (vii) develop incentives for efficiency gains in subnational entities; (viii) strengthen the public sector procurement system; (ix) improve performance through management contracts for agencies; and (x) support a coherent and comprehensive reform implementation process. This Second Programmatic Fiscal and Institutional Structural Adjustment Loan Project focuses on the following elements: (i) issuance of all legislation to regulate the application of the tax reform law; (ii) further improvements in tax administration,

This book was released on 2003 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of the loan is to complete the clean up of the banking system as a result of the 1999-2001 crisis, and to strengthen the government's capacity to manage and mitigate weaknesses in the financial system. A key aspect of the proposed program is the design of a multi pronged effort to first dispose of the financial system's residual loan assets by developing more agile and modern financial instruments and fiduciary arrangements to package, and sell loan assets. The project also aims to strengthen and diversify the participation of the housing mortgage market including improved access to finance for the micro sector, as well as strengthening non bank financial services, and securities institutions in the financial system. The securitization industry will be further developed to support bank asset sales, to provide more liquidity to the mortgage industry, and to help develop the capital markets. A reform of the entire securities legislation will be conducted as part of the program's second phase, to promote a more agile development of the local capital market. This will involve reforming corporate governance and disclosure standards as well as proper criteria for securities industry participants.

This book was released on 2002 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Project, will support and promote the Government's program for sustainable development, primarily, to balance socioeconomic development with environmental protection, and improvement. The project will support the establishment of technical coordination mechanisms with other sectors, mainstreaming environmental issues in sectoral policy, and, by designing fiscal instruments to promote payment of municipal water fees, investments in municipal hydraulic works, and generate revenue from the use of national marine protected areas, including reinvestments related with the environmental management of these areas. Furthermore, the project will support the creation of an enabling environment to decentralize federal environmental management functions to the state level, by way of changes to key legislation; by the preparation of a staged decentralization strategy, specifying the criteria with respect to personnel, and goods; and by establishing the use of third party certification, to ensure the decentralization process. An implementation strategy will be developed to improve public access to information on environmental impact assessment, allowing the application of key legislation on the transparency of information. Risks however include vulnerability to external shocks, lack of stakeholder coordination, political constraints to future reforms, and financial resource constraints to decentralization of environmental functions. Nonetheless, risks have been taken into account in project design, emphasizing on coordination, and consensus building, and, Mexico should benefit from the recovery of the US economy, though timing remains uncertain.

To this end, the project goals focus on seven key areas: a) develop a sound national policy and institutional framework for housing, and urban development; b)design and establish a unified housing subsidy policy that facilitates access of low/moderate-income families, to housing, and leverages household savings, and private credit finance; c) strengthen the housing credit, and savings systems; d) strengthen urban real property registries, and rights; d) increase the supply of urban land and its access by the poor, and improve real estate market functions; e) coordinate and support physical and social investments, to systematically upgrade poor neighborhoods; and, f) improved prevention and management of the impacts of natural disasters.
