Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between public debt and poverty reduction in developing countries, with a specific focus on Central Asian nations. Utilizing panel fixed effects models, the research analyzes the impact of public debt on poverty reduction from 2000 to 2021, taking into account several additional factors including economic growth, population, inflation, human development index, and institutional quality. By examining these interrelated factors, this research aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the complex relationship between public debt and poverty reduction in developing countries. The results of this study have the potential to inform policy decisions and contribute to the ongoing debate surrounding public debt and its implications for poverty alleviation efforts in the developing world.
