The Centre for Economic Research and Policy Analysis (CERPA) has emphasised the need for the government to adopt strategic policy interventions to address pressing economic challenges and ensure long-term stability.
In a statement released on Monday, March 24, CERPA proposed that the government enhance revenue collection mechanisms while ensuring that businesses and households are not unduly burdened.
This approach, CERPA noted, would create a balanced and equitable fiscal environment.
It also stressed the importance of improving public financial management systems to promote transparency and accountability.
This, they argued, would build public trust and ensure efficient use of resources.
The statement highlighted the need for targeted investments in agriculture, industrialisation, and digital transformation. CERPA believes these sectors hold significant potential for driving economic growth and creating employment opportunities.
CERPA urged the government to implement sound macroeconomic policies to tackle inflation and stabilize the currency. These measures, they argued, are critical for maintaining economic confidence and protecting the purchasing power of citizens.
