This disaster risk financing country
note for Serbia provides an overview of the way its
government currently finances the costs imposed by natural
disasters. Meanwhile, poverty deepened after the financial
crisis and during the recessions of 2012 and 2014, mainly
because of losses in employment and labor income. In an
effort to overcome its fiscal challenges, the government of
Serbia adopted an ambitious fiscal consolidation and
structural reform program to halt the rise in public debt
and send it on a downward trajectory by 2017. This program
is supported by a three-year stand-by arrangement from the
International Monetary Fund (IMF). Because of the growing
frequency and severity of disasters, the government has
faced the rising costs of responding to disasters as well as
the challenges of financing emergency response and
reconstruction costs. Having sufficient access to financial
instruments and resources in order to respond to disasters
is crucial for building the financial resilience of the
country and minimizing the negative impact of natural
disasters on Serbia’s economic growth. In this report,
chapter one gives introduction. Chapter two provides the
background and country context, including the recent
economic impacts of disasters. Chapter three reviews the
current institutional and legal framework for disaster risk
management and financing. Chapter four is a review of the
public financial management of disasters in Serbia,
including ex ante and ex post disaster risk financing and
insurance (DRFI) instruments currently in use for budget
mobilization, and it looks at the 2014 floods in more
detail. The chapter concludes with a summary of financial
resources available and a look at the potential resource gaps. |
