  ABSTRACT: The purpose of this research was to review the influence or effect of fiscal policies on Ghana’s development based on a survey of the available literature. This was accomplished by conducting a systematic internet search using an array of keywords—fiscal policy, fiscal policy in Ghana, challenges of fiscal policy in Ghana, challenges of fiscal. We find that there is a large body of empirical research on the impact of fiscal policy on growth in Ghana, with varied results based on cross-sectional, time-series, and panel data. The economy benefited from government investments, transfer payments, and tax income, while government consumption had a negative impact.
