“…Fiscal decentralization is the delegation of economic or monetary functions to the lower level governments from the government at the top (Rauf, Khan, Ali, Qureshi, Ahmad & Anwar, 2017). It is believed that economic devolution encourages accountability and transparency at all levels of government and public administration (Gogoi, 2017) and it is trusted to be a solution to all kinds of economic and political challenges facing developing countries despite its inherent glitches (Jumadi, Ghozali & Khusaini, 2013).…”

The benefits of human capital in a nation are enormous and all encompassing. This study investigates the impact of independent generated revenue of the three tiers of government in Nigeria on human capital formation from 2003 to 2017. The purpose is to determine the effect of internally generated revenue of each level of government on human beings in the country. Revenue powers of three tiers of government in Nigeria are the product of fiscal decentralization being practiced in the country. Thus, Ordinary Least Square technique has been employed to perform the multi-regression analysis using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 20. The findings indicate that federal and local governments’ independent generated funds do not have significant positive impact on human capital development while the state government independent generated revenue exerts significant positive influence on human development index used as proxy for human capital formation in Nigeria. Therefore, the study recommends among others that the three levels of government in the country should strive harder to boost independent revenues for more adequate investment in human capital of the nation.

This research aims to understand the impact of fiscal decentralization on improving the economy, public welfare, and poverty in the province of Papua. The population and sample of this research were 20 districts/cities in the Papua province. The data analysis used a multivariate model analysis based on the structural equation Modeling WarpPLS variant. The results showed that fiscal decentralization positively influenced the economic growth and the improvement in public welfare, but negatively influenced poverty. Meanwhile, economic growth negatively influenced public welfare. On the other hand, the growth positively influenced poverty reduction, and public welfare influenced poverty. In addition, the results of the mediation test showed that economic growth was able to fully mediate between fiscal decentralization and poverty reduction, yet the economic growth became the partial mediation between fiscal decentralization and public welfare.
