The Arab Monetary Fund publishes an economic study about: “Fiscal sustainability: An empirical analysis for Arab countries”

The fiscal sustainability of Arab countries has been significantly challenged by the COVID-19 pandemic.

A uni-directional causal relationship exists where government revenue leads to expenditure, affirming the revenue–spend hypothesis.

The Arab Monetary Fund published a study on "Fiscal sustainability in Arab countries". The study aims to shed light on the relationship between government revenue and government expenditure. The study analyses fiscal sustainability and the causal link between government revenue and expenditure for the period from 1990 to 2021 in a sample of Arab countries.
