About this document

4fiscal Policy Tools and The Problem of Subsidy by suriyasuriya101010 is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Subsidies in sectors like electricity and fertilizers are regressive, benefiting wealthier households more than poorer ones. Issues such as leakages, corruption, and adverse impacts on banking and public finance arise from these subsidies, leading to inefficiencies and increased NPAs. The document suggests that direct benefit transfers, supported by the JAM Number Trinity, could provide targeted assistance to the vulnerable while phasing down subsidies.
