Download or read book Exchange Rate Liberalization in Selected Sub Saharan African Countries Successes Failures and Lessons written by Mr.Nils Øyvind Mæhle and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2013-01-31 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many sub-Saharan African (SSA) countries liberalized their economies in the 1980s and early 1990s. This paper reviews the foreign exchange regime reforms in selected SSA, and their associated macroeconomic policies and economic performance during and after these reforms were undertaken. Before liberalization, most of the reviewed countries were characterized by extensive foreign exchange rationing, sizeable black market premiums, and declining per capita real income. Today, the countries that successfully reformed look markedly different. Rationing and parallel market spreads are a distant memory, and per capita income has increased sharply.

Book Evolving Monetary Policy Frameworks in Low Income and Other Developing Countries

Download or read book Evolving Monetary Policy Frameworks in Low Income and Other Developing Countries written by International Monetary Fund and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2015-10-23 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past two decades, many low- and lower-middle income countries (LLMICs) have improved control over fiscal policy, liberalized and deepened financial markets, and stabilized inflation at moderate levels. Monetary policy frameworks that have helped achieve these ends are being challenged by continued financial development and increased exposure to global capital markets. Many policymakers aspire to move beyond the basics of stability to implement monetary policy frameworks that better anchor inflation and promote macroeconomic stability and growth. Many of these LLMICs are thus considering and implementing improvements to their monetary policy frameworks. The recent successes of some LLMICs and the experiences of emerging and advanced economies, both early in their policy modernization process and following the global financial crisis, are valuable in identifying desirable features of such frameworks. This paper draws on those lessons to provide guidance on key elements of effective monetary policy frameworks for LLMICs.

This book was released on 1999-02-24 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many African countries liberalized in the belief that international competition would stimulate efficiency, growth and technological dynamism.

Its findings, aimed at practitioners and researchers, explain why the assumptions underlying liberalisation are often flawed, why capabilities differ, and why they lag behind other regions.
