Abstract
During the Great Recession and the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, practitioners and scholars alike looked to fiscal reserves as a means to overcome fiscal pressure on state budgets. This study builds on the literature exploring the association between budget stabilization funds and unassigned and unreserved balances (UUBs) during economic booms and busts and under different institutional settings. We find that BSFs supplement UUBs during economic booms and substitute for them during economic busts. Institutional rules strongly influence the relationship between both saving instruments.
期刊介绍：
Public Budgeting & Finance serves as a forum for the communication of research and experiences on all facets of government finance and provides meaningful exchange between research from universities, private and nonprofit research institutes, practitioners in public financial markets, government agencies, and the experience of those who practice government budgeting and finance. Researchers, practitioners, and teachers of applied government finance turn to Public Budgeting & Finance to find understandable, reliable, and thoughtful analysis of issues important in the field. The content of the journal spans the spectrum of budget process and policy and financial management, is never limited to one level of government or even to one country, and always even-handedly crosses disciplines and approaches in applied government finance.
