The Political Budget Cycle in OECD Countries
Original language description
Examination of so called political business cycle, that is, the possibility of a macroeconomic cycle induced by the political cycle, provides little evidence in empirical studies. The empirical evidence of statistically significant increase in economic activity before election is especially a matter of less developed countries. There is a shift in focus to political budget cycle in the developed economies. This paper examines the presence of political budget cycles (PBCs) in the OECD countries using data from all 34 member states over the period 1995- 2012. The dynamic panel linear regression model is used in this article. Three important results emerge: First, there is PBC in the OECD countries. Second, there is a cycle in the fiscal expenditures. Third, there is not cycle in the fiscal revenues.
