Abstract: Abstract The main objectives of public-sector reforms, including the restructuring of public expenditures and reforming the framework for public enterprise management, ownership and operation, are: to increase the efficiency of the productive sector and raise economic growth; to reduce government budgetary costs and increase revenue, thereby improving the fiscal balance; to broaden direct private ownership and control of productive assets; and to reduce and reorient the role of government to that of providing social and economic infrastructure and implementation of economic policy, rather than to being involved in direct production.
