Government expenditures, sectoral and historical data (quarterly)

Requested from DBM by C. Maliwat at 08:09 AM on Oct 04, 2019.
Purpose: Development Research
Date of Coverage: 01/01/1980 - 12/31/2018
Tracking no: #DBM-279713610878

Good day! I am interested in conducting research on the impact of government expenditures on economic growth in the Philippines. I am positive the results of this study will be useful to the DBM.

I am requesting historical quarterly data (from the earliest available time) on government expenditures for the following sectors:

Health
Education
Social Security, Welfare, and Employment
Infrastructure

As I will be running econometric regressions, may I please request actual data, rather than rounded figures? This will help vastly with the accuracy of this intended study.

Thank you.

Good day! Apologies for the inconvenience. I forgot to include total government expenditures (per quarter) for the same time frame in my request, in addition to the sectoral expenditures mentioned earlier. May I please request for that data to be included as well?

Thank you very much.
