Download or read book Public Sector Wage Bill in Mali written by Mr. Youssouf Kiendrebeogo and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2023-07-19 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mali’s wage bill has soared to levels not seen since the early 1990s. This may cause considerable opportunity costs—limiting fiscal space and potentially adding to inflationary pressures—as well as adversely affect medium-term debt sustainability as it weighs heavily on the primary deficit. This SIP investigates the extent and drivers of the recent wage increases and their fiscal and economic consequences. It concludes that across-the board salary freezes may help wage growth moderation in the short term but are politically difficult to implement. Structural reforms to strengthen wage bill management are critical to preserving medium-term fiscal sustainability.

Download or read book Mali written by International Monetary Fund and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1994-03-15 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper reviews economic developments in Mali during 1990–94. In the tertiary sector, trade continued to be the leading source of value added; its share in GDP increased continuously, from 17 percent in 1989 to 18.5 percent in 1993. This was compensated by a marked decline of the share of public administration, reflecting the containment of the wage bill and the streamlining of the civil service. The consumption share in GDP averaged a little less than 95 percent during 1989–93.

Fiscal Affairs Dept. and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2016-08-04 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Government compensation and employment policies are important for the efficient delivery of public services which are crucial for the functioning of economies and the general prosperity of societies. On average, spending on the wage bill absorbs around one-fifth of total spending. Cross-country variation in wage spending reflects, in part, national choices about the government’s role in priority sectors, as well as variations in the level of economic development and resource constraints.
Download or read book Case Studies on Managing Government Compensation and Employment Institutions Policies and Reform Challenges written by International Monetary Fund and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2016-12-04 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This supplement presents country case studies reviewing country experiences with managing wage bill pressures, which are the basis for the compensation and employment reform lessons identified in the main paper. The selection of countries for the case studies reflects past studies carried out by either the IMF or the World Bank in the context of technical assistance or bilateral surveillance (Table 1). These studies provide important insights into the different sources of wage bill pressures as well as the reform challenges governments have faced when addressing these pressures over the short and medium term. The studies cover 20 countries, including five advanced economies, six countries from sub-Saharan Africa, two countries in developing Asia, one country in the Middle East and North Africa, three countries in Latin America and the Caribbean, and three countries in Central and Eastern Europe and the CIS. The structure of each case study is similar, with each study starting with a presentation of the institutional coverage and framework for setting and managing the wage bill; a description of employment and compensation levels, including their comparison with the private sector; and a discussion of the challenges that motivated the need for reforms and, when applicable, the reforms implemented and lessons derived from these.

Mali’s economic situation improved in 2003, in spite of a difficult regional environment. The IMF staff considers that the government’s medium-term program, which is aligned to the Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper (PRSP) policy agenda, offers a strong framework for Mali to implement its poverty reduction strategy, pursue fiscal consolidation, and continue the reform process. The IMF staff also notes the progress made in implementing the PRSP, as indicated in the first annual progress report.

Download or read book Government Wage Bill Management and Civil Service Reform in the Eastern Caribbean Currency Union written by Mr.A. E. Wayne Mitchell and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2019-05-17 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study, we assess the size of the government wage bill and employment in the member countries of the Eastern Caribbean Currency Union and their implications for fiscal sustainability and the adequacy of public service delivery. Over the period 2005 to 2015 their wage bill (as a percentage of GDP, government revenues and expenditures) is higher than in other small states notwithstanding recent efforts by governments to make it more manageable. The composition and distribution of employment is sub-optimal and is reflected in skills mismatches contributing to inefficiencies in public service delivery. Using a dynamic fixed-effects panel, we find that wage bill growth reflects the expansion of government activities to speed up economic and social development and that wage bill spending is procyclical in good times but is rigid during downturns. Finally, we identify the main institutional and legal reforms needed to improve wage bill management and public service efficiency.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Against the background of the pandemic shock, a coup d’état on August 18, 2020 led to a period of international disengagement with Mali and an economic blockade by ECOWAS until the appointment of a transitional government in October. Fund engagement was also put on hold during this period, delaying the resumption of discussions under the 2nd and 3rd reviews of the ECF. The transitional government, which will be in place for 18 months until general elections, announced its full adherence to the international obligations and commitments of the previous government, including the reform agenda under the ECF.
