Abstract
SOUR VARGAS, Delia Laura. Fiscal efforts of the Mexican states during the period 2004 to 2012. Econ: teor. práct [online]. 2017, n.47, pp.191-216. ISSN 2448-7481. https://doi.org/10.24275/etypuam/ne/462017/sour.
Although municipal governments’ financial dependency on the federal government is a persistent problem, little attention has been paid to fiscal efforts at the state level in Mexico with data from recent years. This study used panel data from Mexico’s 31 states, excluding the Federal District, with a model of Feasible Generalized Least Squares (FGLS), to examine state-level fiscal efforts. The results extend the findings of previous studies and enrich the literature on the impact of recent tax reforms on intergovernmental relations in Mexico.
