“…The speed and sequence of privatization has been a subject of comparison between nations. For example, during the 1990s, some countries such as Argentina and Chile implemented privatization rapidly (Makholm, 2020;Sigmund, 2019); while others adopted a much gradual approach to privatization such as India and Turkey (Ertugrul & Selguk, 2017;Gupta, Jain, & Yadav, 2020).…”

Bahrain remains the most vulnerable Gulf country due to its limited savings and sharp rise in debt levels, leaving it exposed to high financing risks. The financial crisis has been deepened by the economic double blow of the decline in oil prices and the effects resulting from the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic. Bahrain has decreased subsidies and increased taxes on many products. Those measures seem, however, insufficient to mitigate the negative impacts on the economy. This paper presents a model based on a comparison between fast privatization and gradual privatization strategies undertaken in some Bahraini economic sectors. It shows that the contribution of privatization to economic restructuring is only as effective as the commitment of the government to maintain a high pace of privatization. This condition can provide needed revenues, and can particularly foster private investments and initiatives. Therefore, it may represent an appropriate context to elevate Bahrain out of the present equilibrium characterized by slow privatization and government dominance on the economy.

The fiscal performance of many sub-Saharan African countries has been quite dismal over the past, with a number of them accumulating huge deficits. This paper examines fiscal sustainability in the West African Monetary Zone (WAMZ). It departs from the standard model of fiscal sustainability and adopts the optimal seigniorage and tax smoothing model. Using vector autoregressive model and data from two selected countries, Ghana and Nigeria, the study finds no concrete evidence in support of the optimal seigniorage and tax smoothing in WAMZ. The findings call for important fiscal reforms to reverse the persistent fiscal deficits. Such reforms should include measures to ensure compliance and eliminate fiscal corruptions
