Primary government expenditures as a proportion of original approved budget (%)

This indicator provides a critical analysis of how actual government spending aligns with the initial fiscal plans laid out in the approved budget. By focusing on the budgetary central government’s expenditures over the last three completed fiscal years, it highlights the government's fiscal discipline and effectiveness in managing resources. A high proportion suggests a successful adherence to budgetary guidelines, indicating careful planning and execution, while a low proportion may reveal potential overspending or budgetary adjustments necessitated by unforeseen circumstances. Furthermore, this metric serves as a valuable tool for stakeholders, enabling them to assess the government's commitment to fiscal responsibility and transparency in financial reporting. Source:
