Mixed Impact: High Inflation on US Public Finance Sectors
- On-demand
- About
High inflation is having a mixed credit impact on US state and local governments and a more negative impact on US hospitals. Wage pressure is a common denominator across sectors, but governments have a partial hedge on the revenue side given nominally rising sales and income taxes. Managing through high inflation and a real economic slowdown will test fiscal discipline.
- High inflation and employment shortage pushing up wage and benefit costs
- Nominally rising tax revenues a partial inflation hedge for governments
- Hospitals' performance curbed by inflation and labor shortages
- Soaring construction costs hit capital budgets, raise disaster recovery expense
- Premium on strong management in event of real economic downturn
