The impulse response showed the significant impact of SIB on revenue gap (RG) reduction. Research limitations – The research has limitations regarding to the short period of observation. The additional variables can be entered into the model. Practical implications – The results serve the policy makers for shaping the measures for recovery policies and maintaining long-term economic stability.
