N1 - 53 N2 - The main purpose of this note is to question the relevance of trying to strengthen a fiscal framework which has been ineffective over the years; doing so, we compare the SGP with a possible alternative, a golden rule of public finance. We take the classification proposed by Kopits and Symansky (1998) as a benchmark. Our assessment shows that a golden rule would be superior to the actual EU fiscal framework. A counterfactual experiment does not contradict this outcome.JEL codes: E61, H30, H60, H70 UR - https://shs.cairn.info/revue-journal-of-innovation-economics-2010-2-page-95?lang=en&redirect-ssocas=7080 ER -
