A group of experts from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) during a visit identified a number of risks to the Kosovo budget. The experts concluded that the rapid expansion in spending related to various schemes, especially war-related benefits, is putting an increasing pressure on the budget and undermining the authorities’ efforts to maintain fiscal stability while creating space for capital projects and other priority spending. As a result, the Kosovo authorities, in consultation with IMF staff, are preparing a package of measures aimed at ensuring that the 2016 fiscal program targets remain within reach and that the 2017 budget will be in line with the fiscal rule.
