Today, the role of government spending which is considered as the main instrument in the promotion of economic development is seen in the public investment budget (PIB). This study analyzes the role of the public investment spending in the economic growth of Cameroon. Specifically, it brings out the effect of Public and Private Investment on GDP growth in Cameroon. The role of the PIB as an instigator of economic growth should be clarified in order to justify government investment expenditure. Many studies have analysed the relationship between government spending and economic growth but the analysis of the composition of government spending and induced economic growth is an aspect of economic analysis which deserves more interest. This study analysis the effect of government investment spending on economic growth in Cameroon going from the components of the GDP5 and using VAR (Vector Auto Regressive) model. Our results show the intervals in which the various components of government spending have an effect on economic growth in Cameroon. We find that the lagged GDP and government investments have a positive effect on growth whereas private investments affect it negatively.

Abstract This paper provides new evidence to contribute to the current debate on the relative impact of public and private investment on economic growth and the crowding effect between the two components of investment in South Africa. Using annual data from 1970 to 2017, the study applies the recently developed Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL)-bounds testing approach to cointegration. The study finds that private investment has a positive impact on economic growth both in the long run and short run, while public investment has a negative effect on economic growth in the long run. Further, in the long run, gross public investment is found to crowd out private investment, while its infrastructural component is found to crowd in private investment. The results of the study also reveal that both gross public investment and non-infrastructural public investment crowd out private investment in the short run. Overall, the study finds private investment to be more important than public investment in the South African economic growth process and that the importance of infrastructural public investment in stimulating private investment in the long run cannot be over-emphasized.

The purpose of this paper is to explore the association between government size and economic growth in the United States using time-series data over the period 1950–2007. In particular, this paper examines the effects of two key components of government expenditure, namely, government consumption and government investment, on US economic growth. A simultaneous-equation model is used to deal with the problem of bi-directional relationship between government size and economic growth. The results suggest that an increase in government consumption slows economic growth, while a rise in government investment enhances economic growth. Furthermore, the results also show that government investment crowds out private investment. Therefore, the overall effect of total government expenditure on economic growth is ambiguous.

Economic growth is an important indicator of the success of development. The ability of resources is a determining factor driving economic growth. Belu Regency is a regency in East Nusa Tenggara Province, located on the Indonesia-Timor Leste border, has economic and political strategic value. Human resources, natural resources and the budget are the real sector of the economy in driving economic growth. The research objective was to analyze the effect of resources on the economic growth of Belu district. The study was conducted using secondary data and SmartPLS was the analysis tool. The results of the study, the relationship of natural resources directly with welfare is negative and will be positive when the indirect relationship through the budget. The direct and indirect relationship of human resources with welfare through the budget is positive, but the direct value relationship is smaller when compared to the indirect relationship. This shows that the budget that is formed from the wealth of natural resources and human resources is an important factor in creating public welfare as measured through economic growth. Budgets sourced from local and central government are increasing every year. The creation of the government and elements of society make the most of resources. The attention of the central government through balancing funds is very high. This is because Belu district located on the Indonesia-Timor Leste border is a macroeconomic picture of the border country

This study aims to analyze the direct and indirect effects of foreign investment (PMA), domestic investment (PMDN), and government investment on poverty levels through economic growth in Central Sulawesi Province. Research explanations (explanatory research) will prove a causal relationship between the independent variable (independent variable) foreign direct investment (FDI), investment in the country (domestic), and government investment, with poverty as the dependent variable (dependent variable) with a variable economic growth as a variable intervening. The type of data used in this study is panel data (pooled data). The sampling method used purposive sampling technique. Using SEM (Structural Equation Modeling) analysis tools with the PLS (Partial Least Square) approach. The results of the first hypothesis show that there is a direct influence between foreign investment (PMA) and government investment on poverty levels in Central Sulawesi, but there is no direct influence between domestic investment (PMDN) on poverty levels in Central Sulawesi. The second hypothesis testing shows that there is an indirect effect between foreign investment, domestic investment, and government investment on poverty levels through economic growth in Central Sulawesi. Efforts to increase economic growth and reduce poverty in Central Sulawesi can be carried out through the creation of a conducive social, political, legal, and bureaucratic system, the realization of investment that is directly correlated with economic programs to alleviate poverty, and maximize the use of Corporate Social Responsibility funds. (CSR) by local governments through the body of the APBD.   Int.

This study investigates the relationship between infrastructure investment and economic growth at the aggregate and sectoral levels, namely, the industrial, agriculture, and services sectors for Pakistan over the period from 1972 to 2015. In contrast to earlier literature, we make a comparative analysis of the different composition of infrastructure investments, including public versus private investment and infrastructure investment in sub-sectors such as in power, roads, and telecommunication sectors. The long-run relationship is estimated using fully modified ordinary least squares (FMOLS) to address the problem of reverse causality. The main conclusion of this study is that both public and private infrastructure investments have positive but different effects on economic growth. In other words, the marginal productivities of private and public infrastructure investments differ across the different sectors of the economy. In most of the cases, public infrastructure investment has a larger impact on economic growth than private infrastructure investment. Two important policy implications emerge from this study, as follows: (1) The different elasticity estimates can be used by policy makers to quantify the impact of policies targeted at the specific sector and (2) the government should develop an enabled policy environment to attract private investment, with the consideration of structural characteristics of the various sectors. The involvement of the private sector in the provision of infrastructure would help to control the tight budgetary situation.
