(percentages of respondents indicating that they received support, by type)Source: CES data collected in December 2020.
- Please indicate whether your household has received such support in any of the following forms since January 2020.
- [6] To gauge these perceptions, we asked CES respondents to directly assess the adequacy of fiscal support measures for the financial well-being of their household.
- One finding we obtain is that respondents who received support generally perceive fiscal interventions to be more adequate (Chart 2).
- A key question is whether changes in perceptions about the adequacy of government support policies could have a causal impact on actual spending decisions of consumers.
- This is important, as a rise in expected taxes associated with government support measures could attenuate the stimulatory effects of fiscal policy.
- This points to the powerful role of perceptions, as they operate over and above any immediate effects that government transfers can have on spending.
- This, in turn, can help stimulate consumer spending and enhance the benefits of fiscal policy in terms of stabilising the economy.
- Importantly, such perceptions influence the behaviour of households in general and not just those who actually receive support.
