Structure of the Marshall Islands and Micronesia Sovereign Wealth FundsThis paper looks at the role Sovereign Wealth Funds have played in the Pacific Island Countries in achieving key macro-fiscal policy objectives, namely, protecting the budget from high revenue volatility and strengthening fiscal prospects. Evidence shows that the funds' effectiveness has been hampered by lack of integration with the budget, institutional weaknesses, and inadequate controls. These factors, together with weak asset management, have sometimes led to substantial financial losses and undermined fiscal policy. Funds, if well designed, could be used as a tool to support a sound fiscal framework, but should not be seen as a substitute for fiscal reforms.IMF Working Papers; Working Paper ;No. 2007/297WealthIslands of the PacificManagementFiscal policyIslands of the PacificFinance, PublicIslands of the PacificBudget planning and preparationimfBudget SystemsimfBudgetimfBudgeting & financial managementimfBudgetingimfExtra-budgetary fundsimfFinanceimfFinance, PublicimfFinancial InstrumentsimfFinancial Risk ManagementimfFiscal PolicyimfFiscal policyimfInstitutional InvestorsimfMacroeconomicsimfNational BudgetimfNational Government Expenditures and Related Policies: GeneralimfNon-bank Financial InstitutionsimfPension FundsimfPublic finance & taxationimfPublic FinanceimfPublic financial management (PFM)imfSovereign wealth fundsimfMarshall Islands, Republic of theimfWealthManagement.Fiscal policyFinance, PublicBudget planning and preparationBudget SystemsBudgetBudgeting & financial managementBudgetingExtra-budgetary fundsFinanceFinance, PublicFinancial InstrumentsFinancial Risk ManagementFiscal PolicyFiscal policyInstitutional InvestorsMacroeconomicsNational BudgetNational Government Expenditures and Related Policies: GeneralNon-bank Financial InstitutionsPension FundsPublic finance & taxationPublic FinancePublic financial management (PFM)Sovereign wealth funds336Medas Paulo1815767Le Borgne Eric1815609International Monetary Fund.Fiscal Affairs Dept.DcWaIMFBOOK9910972469703321Sovereign Wealth Funds in the Pacific Island Countries4372900UNINA
