SECTOR 05

Local Government

Among the most powerful tools for reducing poverty, and among the most fiscally fragile. The central question is always financing.

THE SECTOR CHALLENGE

Sub-national governments are where services are delivered, and where fiscal systems are weakest. Own-source revenue is under-collected, budgets are not credible, intergovernmental transfers are unpredictable, and data systems are fragmented. Decentralisation outpaces fiscal capacity.

NXA'S EXPERTISE

Sub-national public finance is NXA's home ground. We bring district- and city-level expertise in OSR mobilisation, budget credibility analysis, PER-Lite, and the data systems that local governments need to make sound fiscal decisions.
