Abstract

For quite some time now the Government of Antigua and Barbuda has

been plagued with fiscal imbalances. The characteristic of the country’s

small and open economy makes it vulnerable to adverse exogenous factors.

These exogenous factors include external shocks such as the impact of the

2008 global financial crisis, increases in commodity and fuel prices and

natural disasters which have affected the countries thriving tourism-based

economy.

This research project aims to examine the key issues and applying financial

management principles to address the country’s adverse fiscal position

over the medium and long-term. While finance appears to be the panacea,

there are key elements which hinge on the country’s viability such as the

government’s role in stimulating the economy.
