Abstract :
This study investigate the Impact of Current Budget Instability and Debt Accumulation on Iran's economic growth using seasonal data during the period 1369:1 to 1397:4 (based on the latest seasonal data published in 1401). Structural Vector Auto Regressive (SVAR) model has been used for this purpose. The results of the impulse response functions show that the instability of the current budget has led to the instability of other research variables along with increasing debt accumulation and decreasing economic growth. According to the results, the debt accumulation variable has a positive effect in the short term and a negative effect in the long term on private sector investment, as well as a significant negative effect on economic growth. The more the current size of the government is reformed, optimized and balanced, the current budget deficit and its financing will be reduced, the design of a favorable policy in this field will be able to eliminate many of the negative effects of the government sector on the national economy. Based on the results, it is suggested that sustainable incomes should be increased in order to improve the operating balance by maintaining tax justice, and the government's current spending policies should be adjusted by maintaining real purchasing power in a way that does not create negative welfare effects.
