It shows the impact of characteristics variables of this sector in the process of sustainable growth. The contribution of these indicators in sustainable development, notably public expenditures, debt servicing or public debt and fiscal revenue is determined by using the Stoehastie Frontier Analysis approach (SFA). A significant connection between public expenditures, debt servicing and sustainable growth ratio is established by the model studied. The research results show an encouraging but low level of efficiency in State financial management policy. Thus, in order to avoid a sovereign debt crisis that developed countries of Europe are facing these current days, some efforts must continue to be done not only to control the public debt, but also for a better allowance of public expenditures and a good collection of State revenue.展开更多
文摘This paper studies the efficiency of the public financial management system in a developing country (Cameroon) by using time series data from 2000 to 2012. It shows the impact of characteristics variables of this sector in the process of sustainable growth. The contribution of these indicators in sustainable development, notably public expenditures, debt servicing or public debt and fiscal revenue is determined by using the Stoehastie Frontier Analysis approach (SFA). A significant connection between public expenditures, debt servicing and sustainable growth ratio is established by the model studied. The research results show an encouraging but low level of efficiency in State financial management policy. Thus, in order to avoid a sovereign debt crisis that developed countries of Europe are facing these current days, some efforts must continue to be done not only to control the public debt, but also for a better allowance of public expenditures and a good collection of State revenue.
