Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of local government spending, local taxes, and local levies on Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) in 17 districts/cities in Southeast Sulawesi Province during the period 2015–2024 (10 years). The analysis was conducted using panel data regression with the Fixed Effect Model (FEM) through EViews software. The results of the study indicate that simultaneously the three fiscal variables, namely government spending, local taxes, and local levies, have a positive and significant effect on GRDP. Partially, government spending, local taxes, and local levies each have a positive and significant effect. These findings confirm the Keynesian theory and fiscal decentralization that regional fiscal policy plays an important role in driving regional economic growth.
