Abstract

The objective of this article is to study the effect of multilateral surveillance criteria on the cyclical behavior of fiscal policy in CEMAC. Using a linear regression model and estimated by fixed-effect ordinary double least squares on panel data from 1992 to 2012, we find that the surveillance criteria adopted in 2001 increased the pro-cyclicality of fiscal policy.
