| Tiivistelmä: | This paper deals with the effect of fiscal policy on sovereign risk spreads and examines whether the interaction of fiscal variables with political institutions affect financial markets (hereafter as: fin-mkts.) Based on panel data from emerging market countries, revenue-based adjustment (here as: adj.) is found to lower spreads more than spending-based adj. Fin-mkts. also react to the composition of spending. It is shown that debt-financed spending (as: spng.) increases sovereign risk, while tax-financed spng. lowers spreads, suggesting that international investors prefer the latter. Moreover, there is found evidence that fin-mkts.' reaction to fiscal policy depends on political institutions. |
