15 Recommendations for Fiscal Policy The first priority of the new government is to approve the 2010 budget. For 2009, the government should make minor necessary adjustments to the 2008 budget. Given the present uncertainties the government should not cut taxes and/or increase expenditure. The government should allow the rise in the deficit, due to the reduction in tax collection. The fiscal deficit is expected to rise to 5% of GDP. It is crucial that the 2010 budget signals a long term, credible, deficit reduction path and a return to a trend of reduction in public debt.
16 Recommendations for Fiscal Policy 2 Up to 3% of the budget deficit, relative to GDP, should be financed by internal borrowing the rest should be financed abroad using the US loan guaranties if necessary. The government should give priorities to: Research and Development Labor retraining and education Unemployment compensations The government should initiate large infrastructure projects in collaboration with the private sector
17 Recommendations for Monetary Policy Monetary policy should continue to be expansionary The Bank of Israel should set the lowest possible interest rate The Bank of Israel should support the financial system and the banking system acting as Lender of Last Resort The Bank of Israel should continue to support the Shekel The Bank of Israel should take measures to restore proper functioning of the credit system
