Abstract
The overall objective of the study is to
identify potential causes to the rapid increase in regional
government surpluses. It will be shown that regional
government surpluses have rapidly increased because of a
confluence of three factors: (i) higher than expected
revenue, (ii) lower than expected expenditure, and (iii)
limited investments in financial assets. The study will
identify potential causes for each factor by analyzing
differences in actual and budgeted amounts of revenue. This
report was presented to representatives of the Ministry of
Finance and Decentralization Support Facility (DSF) in a
meeting held on 30 May 2008. Comments and corrections of the
attendants are reflected in this version of the report.
