The research question presented in this analysis focuses on national fiscal rules applicable in the Visegrad Group (also called V4) expressed in the European standardised fiscal rules index and on their impact on the socio-economic policy. The use of fiscal rules as an instrument of fiscal sustainability is manifested by imposing requirements as regards borrowing and the costs of public debt service. A high level of debt can cause social development expenditure to be crowded out, contributing to growing development disparities in social and economic terms. (original abstract)

W artykule przedstawiono wyniki prowadzonych badań w zakresie wpływu stosowanych reguł fiskalnych na stabilny rozwój na przykładzie krajów Grupy Wyszehradzkiej. Zdecydowano się dokonać badania zależności tych dwóch zmiennych, ponieważ ich wykorzystanie jako instrumentu stabilności fiskalnej objawia się nałożeniem różnego rodzaju ograniczeń związanych ze skalą wydatków, deficytu czy długu publicznego. W przeprowadzonej analizie polityka fiskalna oraz stabilny rozwój są rozpatrywane za pomocą wskaźników dotyczących stanu finansów publicznych, wyników ekonomicznych i wskaźników finansowania zrównoważonego rozwoju.
