Summary
This TA report summarizes the context, mission findings, and way forward for CARTAC’s provision of TA support to Suriname’s Economic Affairs Department (within the Ministry of Finance and Planning). A new medium-term macro-fiscal forecasting framework (MTFF) will be developed via several TA missions, and will focus on linking high-level revenue and expenditure projections to projections of macroeconomic determinants. In addition, a clear and transparent method of entering the effect of policy changes on these projections, and the contribution of any ‘one-off’ factors to projected revenues or expenditures, will be a key feature of the tool. Finally, training, through hands-on exercises using Surinamese data, will play an important role in supporting the development and ultimate adoption of the MTFF.
