This book was released on 1990-03-01 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paper develops and tests a model of a developing economy that incorporates trade and capital restrictions, illegal transactions, a parallel foreign exchange market, currency substitution features, and forward-looking rational expectations. Temporary expansionary demand policies are associated with an increase in output and prices, a fall in the stock of net foreign assets, and a depreciation of the parallel exchange rate. The speed of adjustment is inversely related to the degree of rationing in the official foreign currency market. A once-for–all devaluation of the official exchange rate has no long-term effect on the premium.

Book excerpt: The Decade Of The Eighties And The Early Nineties Of The Last Century Have Witnessed Changes In The World Economy And In International Economic And Financial Relationship. Several Governments In The Developing Countries Have Recently Embarked On A Liberalization Of Their Foreign Trade And Financial Markets; Many Have Also Decontrolled Domestic Prices And Investment Decisions. The Economies Of Eastern Europe And The Commonwealth Of Independent States (Cis) Have Also Begun To Establish New Political Structures And To Liberalise Their Economies. Liberalisation Policy Is Contemplated As A Measure Of Primary Importance And Is Expected To Improve The Allocation Of An Economy S Resources, Lead To A Greater Efficiency, Expand The Economy S Output, And Accelerate Its Growth. Such A Transition From A Less To A More Liberal Economy Raised Issues Of Great Interest To Policy Makers And Economists Alike.Reform Of Economic Policies In Developing Countries Is One Of The Most Frequently, And Least Understood Efforts Of The Last Decade. The Book Systematically Deals And Analyses The Dynamics Of Liberalisation Process And Compares The Countries Response In Considerable Detail. Struck By The Differences In Their Subsequent Economic Performance, A Closer Analysis Reveals That Their Experience Contradicts The Conventional View That The Ability To Absorb Shocks Depends On The Size Of The Shock, A Country S Experience With Inflation, Its Degree Of Outward Economic Orientation, And Its Various Political Attributes. Genuine Reforms Are Necessary If Countries Are To Achieve Sustained Growth In Real Incomes And Increase In Living Standards.Current International Developments Confirm That The Book Is Dealing With A Question Of Some Urgency: What Can A Developing Country Do To Ensure That It Will Adjust Smoothly And Swiftly After A Macro-Economic Shock? To Find Out What Factors Influence Adjustability, The Study Explores The Recent Stabilization Experience Of Some Developing Countries Around The World, Looking For Any Signs Of A Relationship Between Stabilization Policy And Economic Growth. It Examines The Various Components Of Policy Which Must Be Reformed Government Spending And Revenue, Trade And Exchange Rates, Controls On Private Sector Activity, Labour Market Regulations Etc. Finally, There Is An Analysis Of Why Reforms, Once Implemented, Succeed Or Fail, Accompanied By A Description Of Several Reform Efforts And Their Outcomes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book studies the impact of Egypt's Economic Reform and Structural Adjustment Programme (ERSAP), the effects of which have been of great interest to the international community. Organizations such as the World Bank and the IMF uphold the programme as a success story and example for other countries to follow. ERSAP also has its critics, however, who resent its tendency to downsize government and fear possible negative effects on growth and development. The author discusses these concerns along with those regarding the possible negative social effects of ERSAP.

Download or read book Flexible Exchange Rates for a Stable World Economy written by Joseph E. Gagnon and published by Peterson Institute. This book was released on 2011 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volatile exchange rates and how to manage them are a contentious topic whenever economic policymakers gather in international meetings. This book examines the broad parameters of exchange rate policy in light of both high-powered theory and real-world experience. What are the costs and benefits of flexible versus fixed exchange rates? How much of a role should the exchange rate play in monetary policy? Why don't volatile exchange rates destabilize inflation and output? The principal finding of this book is that using monetary policy to fight exchange rate volatility, including through the adoption of a fixed exchange rate regime, leads to greater volatility of employment, output, and inflation. In other words, the "cure" for exchange rate volatility is worse than the disease. This finding is demonstrated in economic models, in historical case studies, and in statistical analysis of the data. The book devotes considerable attention to understanding the reasons why volatile exchange rates do not destabilize inflation and output. The book concludes that many countries would benefit from allowing greater flexibility of their exchange rates in order to target monetary policy at stabilization of their domestic economies. Few, if any, countries would benefit from a move in the opposite direction.

Download or read book Hysteresis and Business Cycles written by Ms.Valerie Cerra and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2020-05-29 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditionally, economic growth and business cycles have been treated independently. However, the dependence of GDP levels on its history of shocks, what economists refer to as “hysteresis,” argues for unifying the analysis of growth and cycles. In this paper, we review the recent empirical and theoretical literature that motivate this paradigm shift. The renewed interest in hysteresis has been sparked by the persistence of the Global Financial Crisis and fears of a slow recovery from the Covid-19 crisis. The findings of the recent literature have far-reaching conceptual and policy implications. In recessions, monetary and fiscal policies need to be more active to avoid the permanent scars of a downturn. And in good times, running a high-pressure economy could have permanent positive effects.

Download or read book Stabilization Policies in Open Economies written by Richard C. Marston and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study analyzes the theory of stabilization policy as it has developed from the trade oriented models of the 1950's to the recent models employing rational expectations. Throughout the study one model is presented with appropriate modifications to take into account international capital mobility, wage flexibility, and rational expectations. The Mundell-Fleming model is presented but with an asset sector based on modern portfolio theory. This same model is analyzed under conditions of full wage and price flexibility, and the propositions associated with the monetary approach to the balance of payments and the exchange rate are discussed. A simplified version of the model is then used to examine the policy ineffectiveness propositions of the new classical economics (as applied to open economies). The study concludes with a brief review of the literature on the choice between exchange rate regimes.

Download or read book Monetary Stability as a Common Concern in International Law written by Lucía Satragno and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2022-02-28 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The open access publication of this book has been published with the support of the Swiss National Science Foundation. In Monetary Stability as a Common Concern in International Law, Lucía Satragno argues that monetary stability is a global public good that must be promoted and protected at all levels of governance. In doing so, the book accomplishes two tasks. On one hand, it provides an up to date analysis of the role of law and institutions in the international monetary field since the collapse of the Bretton Woods system. On the other hand, it applies the methodological approach proposed by the novel doctrine of Common Concern of Humankind to monetary stability as a case study. Accordingly, the book examines not only the status quo of the international monetary system, but also looks at the ‘new and different realism’ that would be envisaged in monetary affairs in the case of a fully-fledged principle of Common Concern.
