“…So why would it not simply give locals a larger share of their region's petroleum revenues, to forestall a rebellion? In fact, many governments follow this strategy, allocating to local governments a disproportionate share of their region's mineral revenues (Ahmad and Mottu, 2003;Brosio, 2003). But these arrangements are not always sufficient.…”

During the last decade, the Latin American and Caribbean region has experienced unprecedented natural resources abundance. This book highlights how transparency can help realize the benefits and reduce negative externalities associated with the extractive industries in the region. A central message is that high-quality and well-managed information is critical to ensure the transparent and effective governance of the sector. The insights from experiences in the region can help policymakers design and implement effective regulatory reforms and adopt international standards that contribute to this goal. This is particularly important at a time when the recent boom experienced by extractives in the region may be coming to an end.

“…Further, if resource-developing enterprises are privatized, resource extraction must be strictly regulated. Ahmad and Mottu (2002) emphasize the necessity of centralizing resource revenue control and supplementing it with predictable and transparent transfers from the center. Decentralized resource management reduces the capacity of the central government to run countercyclical fiscal policies and to arrange equalization transfers among regions.…”

This Working Paper should not be reported as representing the views of the IMF.The views expressed in this Working Paper are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily represent those of the IMF or IMF policy. Working Papers describe research in progress by the author(s) and are published to elicit comments and to further debate.Botswana is typical of the countries that are endowed with abundant natural resources. Although it is commonly accepted that resource-rich economies tend to fail in accelerating growth, Botswana has experienced the most remarkable economic performance in the region. Using the latest cross-country data, this study empirically readdresses the question of whether resource abundance can contribute to growth. It finds that governance determines the extent to which the growth effects of resource wealth can materialize. In developing countries in particular, the quality of regulation, such as the predictability of changes of regulations, and anticorruption policies, such as transparency and accountability in the public sector, are most important for effective natural resource management and growth.

“…Not only the central government but also the local government (Pemda) enjoys the outcome of natural resource exploration through the arrangement of natural resource revenuesharing funds. The redistribution of revenue sharing from natural resource management among different levels of government is complicated by political elements, problems of macroeconomic stabilization, and efficiency [2]. This is marked by a decline in investment and low economic growth in natural resource-rich regions.…”
