Multiple regression analysis on fixed effect model is used in analyzing the data. The result shows that simultaneosly, fiscal decentralisation has significant effect on GRDP of districits/cities in South Sumatera. However, in partial test, the district expenditure to provincial expenditure ratio is positive and insignificant. This is related to the district expenditure allocation that has not any direct impact on the district economy thus, it has yet to give results that can support the economic growth.
