dc.description.abstractThe purpose of this document is to provide a comprehensive overview of public expenditure in Latin American and Caribbean countries, through the functional classification and social expenditure on the basis of the Social Expenditure Database (SOCX) methodology of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). The detailed and comparable statistical information on public spending by purpose and function, as well as by social programme, makes it possible to analyse, formulate and implement public policies that are more efficient and effective. It also allows for greater transparency on the use of public resources. This paper also seeks to examine the key elements of a strategy for strengthening statistics on public expenditure by function and on social expenditure in the region to guide the standardization and comparability of public expenditure statistics.

Public social expenditure, measured by the SOCX approach, represents 12.1% of GDP in the countries of Latin America and the Caribbean, rising to 13.7% of GDP if private social expenditure is included .-- IV. Lessons learned in the process of compiling functional public expenditure and social expenditure statistics .-- V. Conclusions, key messages and considerations for strengthening public spending statistics.
