Impact of Metropolitan City Area Development on Fiscal Performance of 10 Metropolitan Cities In Indonesia

The Medium-Term Development Plan (RPJMN) 2020-2024 has formulated efforts to optimize the development of the Metropolitan Area so that it is right on target to support inclusive economic growth and equity, which is directed at several indicators. Indicators that are quite important in the development of metropolitan areas are indicators of economic growth and development financing. In this regard, to support the development of the metropolitan area, this study will analyze the financial performance of the metropolitan area and the impact of the development of the metropolitan area on the regional financial performance of each metropolitan area. This research is very important because, in addition to developing metropolitan areas as a development priority in the 2020-2025 RPJMN, this study will analyze the impact of developing metropolitan areas on the fiscal capacity of 10 metropolitan areas using elasticity analysis. It is hoped that the development of the metropolitan area by the government will not only increase the regional economy through GRDP, which in turn can improve the fiscal performance of the metropolitan city area so that it becomes an independent region and does not depend on the central government.

Primary Fiscal Performance, Economic Growth, and Public Debt in Lebanon

Lebanese public debt has been accumulating since 1990, after the end of the civil war. Recently, concerns about the ability of the government to keep servicing its debt have emerged, particularly because the debt-to-GDP ratio reached almost 147% at the end of 2018. This study aims to examine whether a cointegrating relationship exists among primary fiscal performance, real economic growth, and public debt in Lebanon using an autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) model between 2000 and 2018. The ARDL results suggest the non-existence of a cointegrating relationship and hence the unsustainability of the Lebanese public debt. The evidence of the short-run estimation indicates that better primary fiscal performance and a higher economic growth rate reduce Lebanese public debt in the short run. This study proposes that immediate reforms that increase the primary fiscal surplus and attract investors are crucial to prevent a debt crisis in the country.
