Abstract

AbstractThis paper examines the relationship between fiscal decentralization—the assignment of revenue sources and expenditure functions across government levels—and government size in Moldova. The empirical results—based on data for a cross‐section of Moldovan sub‐national government in 1998—suggest that fiscal decentralization is associated with larger sub‐national governments and that the country's revenue‐sharing system imposes a constraint on sub‐national revenue mobilization capacity.
