Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2012 in the subject Economics - Macro-economics, general, , language: English, abstract: The new world order is one where the flow of external resources especially to emerging economies such as Kenya is shrinking. Indeed, the recent recession in developed countries was a wakeup call to many that the expected resources could one day dry up. This is happening when the need for support is increasing, hence, the need to become self sustainable and to increase the level of resources that can be raised domestically. Domestic resource mobilization (DRM) refers to the savings and investment generated by households, domestic firms, and government. The need for African countries to mobilize domestic resources as a medium-to long-term goal is now widely accepted. In the past, Africa has been rated poorly as relates to saving and investment. A sustained increase in growth rates require higher level of savings and investment, as well as increased investment productivity. Developing countries and those in transition are at present confronting unsustainable fiscal deficits; unabated debt service charges and declining external assistance, seriously affecting their development process. Domestic tax revenues are the most sustainable source of financing for public expenditures in developing countries. The experience with domestic resource mobilization of developing countries over the last 25 years has been mixed. In countries such as Botswana, Israel, Kuwait and Seychelles, the central government revenue’s share in GDP has been more than 40 percent on average. The issue of tax compliance is extremely important both to those concerned with the key role increased tax yields can play in restoring macroeconomic balance and to those concerned with tax policy and its effects on the economy in general. However, the ability of developing countries’ governments to raise direct tax revenues is constrained by a number of external and internal factors. [...]

Africa welcomes business investment and offers some of the world's highest returns and impacts Africa has tremendous economic potential and offers rewarding opportunities for global businesses looking for new markets and long-term investments with favorable returns. Africa has been one of the world's fastest-growing regions over the past decade, and by 2030 will be home to nearly 1.7 billion people and an estimated $6.7 trillion worth of consumer and business spending. Increased political stability in recent years and improving regional integration are making market access easier, and business expansion will generate jobs for women and youth, who represent the vast majority of the population. Current economic growth and poverty-alleviation efforts mean that more than 43 percent of the continent's people will reach middle- or upper-class status by 2030. Unlocking Africa's Business Potential examines business opportunities in the eight sectors with the highest potential returns on private investment—the same sectors that will foster economic growth and diversification, job creation, and improved general welfare. These sectors include: consumer markets, agriculture and agriprocessing, information and communication technology, manufacturing, oil and gas, tourism, banking, and infrastructure and construction. The book's analysis of these sectors is based on case studies that identify specific opportunities for investment and growth, along with long-term market projections to inform decision-making. The book identifies potential risks to business and offers mitigation strategies. It also provides policymakers with solutions to attract new business investments, including how to remove barriers to business and accelerate development of the private sector.

After 3 years of historic reforms, Myanmar has entered a pivotal stage in its socioeconomic development. Natural, cultural, and demographic advantages are positioning the country for long-term success, but many challenges and potential pitfalls lie ahead. This publication examines how to leverage the opportunities and offers solutions to the challenges. For Myanmar to achieve its economic transition, considerable investments will have to be made in infrastructure and developing human capital, and progress made on building institutional capacity, a regulatory environment for the private sector to flourish, and a modern finance sector. In all reform efforts, the government should embrace good governance, and strive for inclusive, environmentally sustainable, and regionally connected growth. Ensuring that the benefits of growth are shared broadly and regionally balanced stands out in a crowded development agenda.

The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) is a political and economic union of Arab states, namely Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the Unites Arab Emirates. The GCC was formed in 1981 to strengthen the members’ economic, social and political ties by harmonizing regulations in various fields including economy, finance, trade and customs. The region extends over a territory of 2 673 108 km2 and is home to about 50 million people. The common denominators of the GCC countries are limited natural fertile land, scarce water resources and harsh climate. Depending on the country, the agriculture sector may use as much as 75 percent of the national available water resources. This has enormous environmental costs and significantly affects the sustainability of overall development in the Arabian Peninsula.According to Al-Rashed and Sherif (2000), the lack of renewable water resources is one of the critical constraints to sustainable development in the GCC countries. Rainfall in the Arabian Peninsula is scarce and infrequent. Over-exploitation of fossil groundwater resources, mostly to meet irrigation demands and create greenery lands, has already affected the productivity of aquifers, both quantitatively and qualitatively, despite the fact that much of the freshwater demand in the GCC countries is already covered using desalinated water. Reducing water consumption and increasing water efficiency are essential to enhancing agriculture and moving towards increased self-sufficiency with the production of high-quality, safe and diversified foods in the GCC countries. Exploiting the full potential of protected agriculture should save significant amounts of water, which can be used not only for agriculture but for other needs as well.

The conditions of globalization, including economic integration, fiscal discipline, introduction of information communications technologies and democratic governance, have increasingly forced states to redefine their role in public management and to reform the public administration system. However, there is growing realization among decision makers that policy and institutional reform per se will not be sufficient to revitalize the public sector. Major strengthening of the knowledge, skills, values, attitudes and leadership abilities of human capital is also needed to transform the public sector, particularly in developing countries and countries with economies in transition. This year's report is expected to contribute to global and national debates on this topic.--Publisher's description.

This paper discusses Kenya’s First Review Under the Twelve-Month Stand-by Arrangement and the Arrangement Under the Standby Credit Facility, Request for Waivers for Nonobservance of Performance Criterion (PC), and Request for Modification of PC. All quantitative PCs for end-March 2015 were met, but the continuous performance criterion on external arrears was not observed owing to the emergence of temporary technical arrears on external debt. The IMF staff recommends completion of the first review and supports the authorities’ request for a modification of PCs for end-September 2015, and for waivers for nonobservance of the PCs on external arrears.

Geothermal energy represents one of the key options for Indonesia to achieve a comprehensive approach to national energy development. The rapid increase in fossil-fuel based energy consumption, which is subject to volatility in the world oil market, is the main challenge facing the country's energy supply. This study documents key issues that have constrained the development of geothermal power in Indonesia, including tariffs, tendering processes, financial considerations, permitting, and interagency coordination. It also makes recommendations to unlock the potential of the sector, including a new tariff regime, improvements to the tendering process, renegotiation of power purchase agreements, and innovative modes of financing.

The specific objectives of this study are; to identify the effect of monthly rental income on rental revenue collection, to determine the effects of withholding rental income on rental revenue collection, to find out the effect of tax amnesty on rental revenue collection and to investigate the effect of block management systems sector on rental revenue collection The study is guided by the dynamic theory of public spending, taxation, and debt and the technological advancement theory. An empirical review is also undertaken to link the independent variables to revenue collection and the research gaps arising. The study shall adopt a descriptive research design and a case of KRA shall be carried out. The target population is 500 employees and a sample size of 81 has been obtained for this matter.
