<p>With increasing frequency, the IMF has assisted middle-income countries, especially emerging economies, in adopting the types of budget reforms that have been introduced in many Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) countries - reforms that emphasize performance and results achieved from the use of public resources. This paper examines the experience of OECD countries in introducing such reforms and assesses whether the same reform strategy be applied to non-OECD countries. It examines how emerging economies should begin such reforms, and how they should be sequenced thereafter. Based on a thorough review of the technical assistance provided by the IMF's Fiscal Affairs Department (FAD) to middle-income countries, this paper will be useful to policymakers and administrators in emerging economies who are contemplating such reforms.</p>

Los procesos de integración económica regional están siendo, una vez más, uno de los grandes protagonistas de la política económica en la mayoría de los países de América Latina y el Caribe. Las Américas sin barreras documenta de forma detallada y rigurosa los procesos de negociación de los acuerdos más importantes firmados durante los años noventa. El análisis está centrado en lo que sigue siendo el núcleo principal de toda negociación comercial, esto es, el acceso a mercados a través del desmantelamiento de barreras arancelarias y no arancelarias.

Las Américas sin barreras

Robert, Carolyn

The restoration and maintenance of ambient water quality in the estuaries, lakes, rivers and streams of Latin America and the Caribbean are an enormous and costly undertaking that has only just begun to reverse decades of neglect. Deciding on water quality targets, how fast to achieve them and how much to invest is not easy in developing countries, where ambient water quality improvement competes for scarce financial resources. Investing in Water Quality explores the methods and analytical tools available for making better investment decisions when our knowledge of the costs and benefits of water quality improvement is imprecise and the future is uncertain. The study demonstrates how water quality and economic analysis models can be integrated to measure the net benefits of improvement in ambient water quality, quantify the degree of project risk introduced by imperfect knowledge, and reach informed investment decisions that reflect local preferences. This is an indispensable guide for anyone working to reduce urban water pollution in developing countries.
