This book provides a comprehensive analysis of the challenges of fiscal consolidation and debt reduction in the Caribbean. It examines the problem of high debt in the region and discusses policy options for improving debt sustainability, including fiscal consolidation, robust growth, and structural reforms. The book also examines empirically the factors underlying global large debt reduction episodes to draw important policy lessons for the Caribbean. It also reviews the literature on successful fiscal consolidation experiences and provides an overview of past and current consolidation efforts in the Caribbean. The book concludes that the region needs a broad and sustained package of reforms to reduce debt ratios to more manageable levels and strengthen economic resilience. 410 0$aBooks 606 $aFinance, Public$zCaribbean Area 606 $aDebts, Public$zCaribbean Area 606 $aFiscal policy$zCaribbean Area 606 $aExports and Imports$2imf 606 $aFinancial Risk Management$2imf 606 $aForeign Exchange$2imf 606 $aMacroeconomics$2imf 606 $aPublic Finance$2imf 606 $aDebt$2imf 606 $aDebt Management$2imf 606 $aSovereign Debt$2imf 606 $aFiscal Policy$2imf 606 $aNational Government Expenditures and Related Policies: General$2imf 606 $aInternational Lending and Debt Problems$2imf 606 $aCurrent Account Adjustment$2imf 606 $aShort-term Capital Movements$2imf 606 $aPublic finance & taxation$2imf 606 $aFinance$2imf 606 $aInternational economics$2imf 606 $aCurrency$2imf 606 $aForeign exchange$2imf 606 $aFiscal consolidation$2imf 606 $aPublic debt$2imf 606 $aDebt reduction$2imf 606 $aFiscal rules$2imf 606 $aFiscal stance$2imf 606 $aFiscal policy$2imf 606 $aAsset and liability management$2imf 606 $aExpenditure$2imf 606 $aDebts, External$2imf 606 $aDebts, Public$2imf 606 $aExpenditures, Public$2imf 606 $aBalance of payments$2imf 607 $aJamaica$2imf 615 0$aFinance, Public 615 0$aDebts, Public 615 0$aFiscal policy 615 7$aExports and Imports 615 7$aFinancial Risk Management 615 7$aForeign Exchange 615 7$aMacroeconomics 615 7$aPublic Finance 615 7$aDebt 615 7$aDebt Management 615 7$aSovereign Debt 615 7$aFiscal Policy 615 7$aNational Government Expenditures and Related Policies: General 615 7$aInternational Lending and Debt Problems 615 7$aCurrent Account Adjustment 615 7$aShort-term Capital Movements 615 7$aPublic finance & taxation 615 7$aFinance 615 7$aInternational economics 615 7$aCurrency 615 7$aForeign exchange 615 7$aFiscal consolidation 615 7$aPublic debt 615 7$aDebt reduction 615 7$aFiscal rules 615 7$aFiscal stance 615 7$aFiscal policy 615 7$aAsset and liability management 615 7$aExpenditure 615 7$aDebts, External 615 7$aDebts, Public 615 7$aExpenditures, Public 615 7$aBalance of payments 676 $a336 700 $aYartey$b Charles Amo$01485134 701 $aTurner-Jones$b Therese$01555850 712 02$aInternational Monetary Fund. 801 0$bDcWaIMF 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910791192003321 996 $aCaribbean Renewal$93818095 997 $aUNINA
