Our Expertise
The Indonesia Project of the Australian National University (ANU), in collaboration with The SMERU Research Institute, organized The 4th Indonesian Development Research Network (IDRN) Workshop on 17–18 May 2016 in Bandung, West Java, Indonesia. It was attended by approximately 40 researchers from various institutes in Indonesia and Australia.
We use a large-scale unconditional cash transfer program in Indonesia to investigate the importance of timing in shaping household consumption responses to fiscal interventions. Timely receipt of transfers yields no expenditure change relative to non-recipients. However, delayed receipt reduces expenditures by 7.5 percentage points. Ignoring heterogeneous timing leads to sizable underestimates of expenditure impacts.
Since 2013, The SMERU Research Institute has been invited to participate as a knowledge partner to the OECD Forum.
