Institutional Resilience in South Asia: The Role of Governance, Preparedness, and Accountability, Administration & Society
Authors: Dr. Emon Kalyan Chowdhury
Year: 2026
Governments in South Asia remain vulnerable to recurrent shocks, exposing institutional, fiscal, and demographic weaknesses. This study develops an accounting-oriented framework to assess resilience across eight countries using a Composite Resilience Index (CRI) and advanced econometric techniques, including fixed-effects, 2SLS, and Structural Equation Modeling. Results show governance capacity, crisis preparedness, digital government, and performance auditing as the strongest driver of resilience, while health and emergency expenditure also contribute positively. Demographic pressures, however, significantly erode resilience and weaken other investments. Findings underscore the need for stronger accountability, strategic fiscal planning, and institutionalized resilience accounting to enhance adaptive capacity.
Institutional drivers of public sector resilience: Governance capacity, fiscal investment, and demographic pressure in South Asia

Public sector resilience has become a central policy concern in South Asia as governments face overlapping health, fiscal, environmental, and demographic pressures. This study examines how governance capacity, public health expenditure, and demographic pressure shape institutional resilience outcomes across eight South Asian countries from 2010 to 2023. Resilience is measured through a Composite Resilience Index that combines normalized political stability, human development, and environmental performance indicators; the index is treated as an observable institutional-resilience outcome composite rather than as a complete measure of internal administrative capability.
