Sanjeev Gupta, Sami Yl�outinen
2014 IMF Working Papers  
This paper presents twelve budget institutions that can support planning and delivery of credible fiscal strategies in the fiscal policy-making process. The resulting framework is applied to seven low-income countries and the status of their budget institutions compared to the G-20 advanced and emerging market economies. The paper then presents recommendations for designing and implementing appropriate fiscal strategy for lowincome countries. Particular attention is paid to prioritization and sequencing of reform efforts.
