by Ashish Kumar Market ResearcherThe government spending sector caters to the total amount of public
sector expenditure at any sort of level, be it central government, local

including: market size (value 2012-16, and forecast to 2021) for overall

The various segments in which government undertakes expenditure are
further bifurcated into many different sectors like the defense segment
includes all military and civil defense spending, foreign military aid,
research and development, and other defense related expenditure while the
education segment includes all expenses made on pre-primary, primary,
secondary, and tertiary education, as well as education not definable by level,
subsidiary services, research and development, and other education related
expenditure. The other segments including social protection is further divided
into all types of spending on sickness and disability, old age, survivors,
family and children, unemployment, housing, social exclusion, research and
development, and other social protection expenditure while the health segments
covers all spending on medical products, appliances, and equipment, as well as
outpatient, hospital, and public health services, research and development, and
other health expenditure.
Government spending across the world has been considered to be a very
sensitive issue in many countries wherein the results of other industries are
accordingly influenced owing to the levels of government expenditure.
Government spending is a large scale process and thereby either directly or
indirectly impacts various industries of any nation. Such spending are also
done on general public services, public order and safety, economic affairs,
environmental protection, housing and community amenities, and recreation,
culture and religion, etc. which accounts for the ‘others’ segment.
According to statistics, the global government spending sector has had
total revenues of about USD 28,354.1 billion in 2016 and showcased a CAGR of
3.8% wherein the social protection segment was the industry’s most lucrative
segment with total revenues equivalent to 31.5% of the overall value. Moreover,
it was noted that Europe had been the largest contributor to this industry,
reckoning for more than a third of spending in 2016. These trends are further
expected to ameliorate in the coming years; leading to a holistic developmental
success for this industry.
Lately, it has been observed that the government has commenced to plunge
in capital into several infrastructure projects and consequently, companies in
the construction sector are currently witnessing an upturn in the overall
investor confidence. Thus, this industry plays a very crucial role in
generating economic progress globally since it happens to be a well connected
factor that aids in stimulating the market demands for various industries.
Even, on proper scrutiny, it has been revealed that the roles and size of
governments around the world have changed drastically over the years and as a
result, it has also managed to augment the global public spending since 20th
century in early-industrialized countries and is further expected to bolster
the cumulative spending as the governments are foreseen to begin spending more
resources on segments involving social protection, education and healthcare as
the years roll by.
Geographically, the government expenditure in countries having high
incomes has obviously been higher when compared to those countries with low
incomes and it has been noticed that nowadays, the spending by government is
influenced to a large extent by the private sector since they are relying much
more on the ability of this sector to come up with innovative goods and
services and at the same time, manage them efficiently. Thus, these
public-private partnerships (PPP), in particular, have managed to become an
increasingly popular mechanism for governments to finance, design, build and
operate infrastructure projects lately and in the long run, these partnerships
are envisioned to engender registration of massive revenues in many global
industries by 2021.
Not only this, even where the growth in government spending is discovered
to be less such that it develops but at a decreasing rate year after year; the
economic scenario in such cases is all set to continue improvements in the
coming years with adequate support from the government.
