Abstract

This article analyses the public spending performance and efficiency of South East European (SSE) countries for the period 2010–2019, ranking Slovenia as the best performer and Greece as the worst. The article provides evidence-based policy recommendations for countries to improve their performance with the same inputs, as well as to decrease inputs to achieve same performance. The authors used data envelopment analysis to provide an insight into how the effectiveness and efficiency of the education and public infrastructure sectors might be improved.
