We assess the public spending efficiency of 20 Latin American countries over the period of 2000-2019, computing Data … Envelopment Analysis efficiency scores. For the Public Sector Performance composite indicator, we use the annual data of socio …

We compute Public Sector Performance (PSP) and Public Sector Efficiency (PSE) indicators and Data Envelopment Analysis … (DEA) efficiency scores for a sample of twenty-three Latin American and Caribbean Countries (LAC) to measure efficiency of … government, while the efficiency frontier is essentially defined by Chile, Guatemala, and Peru. Moreover, on average, output …

We assess notably how do extreme events affect the public sector efficiency of decentralized governance. Hence, we … empirically link the public sector efficiency scores, to tax revenue and spending decentralization. First, we compute government … spending efficiency scores via data envelopment analysis. Second, relying on panel data and impulse response approaches, we …

This study examines the effects of the tax structure composition for public sector efficiency in a sample of 41 … indicators and use them as outputs to compute data envelopment analysis (DEA) efficiency scores under different orientation … different taxes for public efficiency in a panel regression specification. We find that tax effects are significantly different …

This paper attempts to identify the effect of fiscal decentralization on public sector efficiency (PSE). We employ data …

This paper evaluates the relevance of the taxation for public spending efficiency in a sample of OECD economies in the … measure the change in total factor productivity, the change in efficiency and the change in technology. Second, we explain … these newly computed public efficiency scores with tax structures using a reduced-form panel data regression specification …

We evaluate the effects of structural tax reforms on government spending efficiency in a sample of OECD economies over … the period 2007-2016. After calculating input spending efficiency scores, we assess the relevance for efficiency of … narrative tax changes in a panel setup. We find that: i) input efficiency scores average around 0.6-07; ii) increases in the tax …
