Introduction The government has a responsibility for delivering public goods optimally for the collective development of all individuals. In the quest to achieve this noble course, supply-side policies, which form part of macroeconomic strategies, are developed to ensure that markets and industries function in an efficient way to increase the rate of economic growth as reflected in the real national yield. Many governments support the assertion that they can achieve a sustained economic growth by improving supply-side operations without causing an increase in inflation. However, reforms on the supply-side policies do not facilitate the achievement of adequate growth. This paper defines and explains the concept of a balanced economic growth and supply-side policies. The second section discusses how supply-side policies bring about an objective financial growth. The last section discusses the effectiveness of these policies in ensuring a balanced economic growth. Definition and Explanation of a Balanced Economic Growth Although the growth rate does not reflect people’s living standards entirely, economic growth has been one of the critical areas of consideration for every nation that is in the process of developing its economic policies. Indeed, economic growth is the most common approach to measuring the level of prosperity (Łukasz 2014). Considering the drawbacks of economic growth as a measure of performance for economies such as failing to record productivity in the black markets, Keith (2010) asserts that all nations endeavour to ensure a balanced economic growth. In business, an objective fiscal development is realized where investment supplies and yield grow at corresponding rates. Consistent with this assertion, for overall economic growth to occur, ‘…the capital-output ratio, the real interest rate, and the labour share of income have to remain broadly constant over time’ (Harutaka 2008, p. 32). The field of development economics considers a balanced economic growth an instantaneous and synchronised expansion process of various industrial sectors within a nation. This claim presents a balanced economic growth as a maintainable financial development. A balanced economic growth is characterised by low inflation. Consistent with the development economics point of view, a balanced economic growth occurs in different sectors of an economic. Such sectors grow simultaneously. For example, a balanced economic growth may be witnessed when exportation and domestic consumption rates rise simultaneously. It also requires a balanced growth in a nation’s markets in different regions. For instance, China’s fast expansion is mainly concentrated on the country’s southern region. Nations that experience a balanced economic growth have no one area of the economy growing at the expense of the other. Consequently, it is necessary for investments to develop as the consumption capacity increases. This situation ensures that the witnessed increased productivity from higher investments can lead to a greater absorption of products in the local markets. For instance, the US and the UK financial intensification agenda, which centres on the increased customer expenditure, has not only resulted in a reduced funds ratio but also amplified current bank arrears.
