Intervention (Public) We administer a survey to local bureaucrats in the health sector that seeks to understand their demand for different strategies that facilitate the execution of resources. In the survey, we will introduce exogenous variation in the perception of procurement risk associated with each strategy by randomizing the content of the provided information. In the first round, we randomly assign information on whether the spending plan will be interpreted as compliant with the rules by the control agency. In the second round, the experiment will randomize the complexity of the budget execution strategy. The survey experiment will be implemented in collaboration with CONASEMS, the Brazilian Council of Municipal Health Secretaries. We will administer it in July/2022 during the annual congress of CONASEMS, which brings together local bureaucrats in the health sector from all over Brazil.
