Governments’ fondness for interventionism and its consequences

Data compiled by three economists tracking 30 European countries listed 1,160 privatizations in Europe compared to only 61 nationalizations in the decade ending in 2016. Productivity gains from previously poorly managed resources are a source of economic growth in Europe and other countries.

A case in point is Romania. In 2005, it established Fondul Proprietatea, a closed-ended fund, to take over 90 state-owned ventures, including its hydroelectricity and coal power plants. In the years since, Fondul, and its private sector asset managers, have been successful at generating a steady stream of returns through dividends and asset sales for the government. The Romanian state's ownership of the fund has dwindled to 6%. Romanian pension funds and portfolio investors are now the fund's largest shareholders.

Dividend and divestment income has funded Romanian public spending and welfare.

Expanding the welfare state without targeting benefits was a major weakness in Sri Lanka’s public finances. Packaging subsidies with commercial operations of state ventures are fraught with conflicts of interest.
States intervening in multiple areas of the economy, monopolistic control, and crowding out funding rarely serves the long-term interest of taxpayers who fund these. Sri Lankan managers of state ventures have demonstrated a general lack of capacity, alignment with objectives and poor governance, which can indeed lead to disaster.

Many states have unravelled the state's interest in the need to run commercial ventures successfully during the last three decades. Romania is just one example. Sri Lanka is not short of examples to follow.
