    Abstract

    During the economic and financial crisis fiscal positions across OECD countries deteriorated sharply. Many countries have already started fiscal consolidations but additional consolidation will be required. Moreover, additional challenges to the sustainability of fiscal balances are posed by population ageing and additional spending requirements on health and pensions, which by European Commission and the OECD projections will drive up public spending in almost all OECD countries over the horizon 2012-2050.
