Owing to a sharp fall in oil revenues and large development needs, Timor-Leste is facing difficult policy challenges.

Prioritization of government expenditures to facilitate high-return infrastructure investments is key in tandem with structural reforms that catalyze nonoil private sector growth. The 2016 budget outlined a significant scaling up of the public investment in 2017-19, which will strain fiscal sustainability.
