Konsolidacija javnih financ predstavlja trenutno najbolj pereč problem reševanja posledic krize iz l. 2008. Instrumenti za reševanje gospodarstva so večinoma že vsi podali rezultate javne finance pa so poglavje urejanja sedaj, leto po krizi, ko so ukrepi, namenjeni gospodarstvu, že vpeljani. Pri konsolidaciji javnih financ gre za izvajanje ukrepov, s katerimi se ureja stanje javnih financ države. To pomeni, da organi reševanja krize izberejo po skrbnih preučitvah najboljše instrumente, kateri bodo zmanjšali dovoljeni javnofinančni primanjkljaj na 3% BDP-ja ali manj, hkrati pa je namen ukrepov zmanjšanje kopičenja dolga. Države sprejemajo ukrepe glede na razmere v svojem lastnem okolju ter napram svojim lastnim zmožnostim. Seveda pa državam pomagajo tudi velike svetovne institucije s priporočili in nasveti svojih strokovnjakov. Nekateri so strogo obvezni in njihovo neupoštevanje ima določene sankcije, spet drugi pa so le napotek poznavalcev. Države spretno kljubujejo pastem gospodarske in finančne krize. Škoda je velika, ampak se bo stanje s primernimi ukrepi postopoma spet izboljšalo. Nekaterim bo uspelo prej, drugim kasneje. A posledice se bodo čutile še vrsto let. Public finance consolidation is currently the most pressing issue when dealing with the 2008 crisis. Results from instruments aimed at saving the economy are already visible and now, a year after the crisis, the main focus is on regulating public finance. Public finance consolidation involves implementing measures to improve the financial condition of the state. Authorities responsible for solving the crisis carefully analyse the situation and choose the best instruments for reducing the allowed public deficit to at least 3% of GDP , and at the same time minimising debt accumulation. Each country takes measures according to its own circumstances and capacities. Of course, global institutions assist these countries with expert recommendations and advice. Some of these recommendations are binding and non-compliance is sanctioned, whereas others are merely guidelines from experts. Countries are successfully avoiding the traps of the economic and financial crisis – the damage is significant, but can be gradually improved with appropriate measures. Some countries will succeed sooner than others. The consequences, however, will be visible for many years.
