Central governments in most South Asian countries delegate extremely limited authority to subnational governments to borrow—thus minimizing subnational fiscal risks but also potentially foregoing the benefits of decentralized decision making. A lack of transparency in subnational public debt statistics and guarantees reduces policy makers’ accountability and exposes the country to substantial fiscal risks. India’s experience proves illustrative for the rest of the region, especially for countries such as Pakistan, where provincial borrowing has expanded, and for Maldives and Nepal, which have started to decentralize fiscal policy. Improved transparency and fiscal rules, the disciplining role of markets, and better intergovernmental frameworks could achieve better subnational fiscal outcomes in the region.
