Fiscal policy is the use of government expenditures and taxes which affect economic activity. Determination of fiscal policy in a given year takes into account the time virtually the past (current socio-economic status) and the implications for the future (fiscal sustainability).

An expansionary fiscal policy means a reduction of direct and indirect taxes and increased government expenditures.
