Mestrado em Ciências EmpresariaisO presente trabalho tem como objectivo ensaiar uma análise da crise de 2008 na economia de Angola. Com esse objectivo, procedeu-se à análise da economia de Angola no período de 2002 à 2008, a partir dos principais indicadores macroeconómicos para se perceber como era a situação da economia de Angola no período pré-crise. Foi igualmente analisado a partir dos principais indicadores macroeconómicos a situação da economia de Angola no período de 2009 à 2011 para se perceber como foi o desempenho da economia no período da crise. Os resultados confirmam que a crise afectou, de forma negativa, o excelente desempenho que a economia teve no período de 2002 à 2008.
This study aims to test an analysis of the 2008 crisis on the economy of Angola. With this aim, we proceeded by analyzing the period from 2002 to 2008, using the main macroeconomic indicators to see what the pre-crisis economic situation was in Angola during this time. We also analyzed the period from 2009 to 2011, using the main macroeconomic indicators of the economy to see how the economy was performing during the crisis. The results confirm that the crisis negatively affected the excellent performance of the economy during the period from 2002 to 2008.

Mestrado em Ciências EmpresariaisA queda do preço petróleo, em finais de 2014, trouxe consequências políticas, sociais e económicas graves, sobretudo para a economia angolana. O país tem atravessado um período muito turbulento, passando por uma crise política com repercussão internacional e, sobretudo, por uma crise económica causada pela redução das receitas do petróleo exportado, que se refletiu em menos disponibilidade financeira do Governo, deixando o país perante uma inflação galopante e uma forte desvalorização do kwanza. Assim sendo, o principal objetivo desta dissertação é analisar a perceção dos empresários angolanos sobre a importância de alguns fatores de constrangimento à sua atividade no seguimento da queda do preço do petróleo. Para tal, foi recolhida, através de um questionário, informação de 70 empresários angolanos, de várias províncias do país e de diversas áreas de atividade. Os resultados obtidos permitiram concluir que, na perspetiva destes agentes económicos, os principais fatores que agravaram a crise económica em Angola naquele contexto foram: a pouca diversidade do setor económico, a corrupção, a crise cambial/disponibilidade de divisas e desvalorização do kwanza.
A drop in oil prices, by the end of 2014, has brought serious political, social and economical consequences, especially for the Angolan economy. The country has suffered a very turbulent period, going through a political crisis with an international repercussion and, particularly, through an economical crisis caused by the reduction of exported oil (petroleum). This reduction resulted in less financial availability of the government, which left the country in a rampant inflation and a strong devaluation of Kwanza. Therefore, the main objective of this dissertation is to analyze the perception of Angolan businessmen about the importance of some constraining factors to their activity following the drop in oil prices. To do so, it was collected, through a questionnaire, information of 70 Angolan businessmen, from various provinces of the country and from diverse areas of activity. The results obtained allowed to conclude that, in the perspective of these economical agents, the main factors for the aggravation of the economical crisis in Angola in that context were: the little diversity of the economical sector, corruption, foreign exchange/ currency availability and devaluation of Kwanza.

Mestrado em Desenvolvimento e Cooperação InternacionalO principal objetivo desta dissertação é identificar e compreender a imagem que a imprensa portuguesa constrói sobre Angola, os angolanos e as relações com Portugal. Foi feita uma análise documental às notícias de quatro jornais publicadas entre 2008 e 2015. Os principais temas identificados foram: cooperação, economia e migrações. Portugal foi sempre um dos principais parceiros da cooperação para o desenvolvimento das suas ex-colónias mas com o crescimento económico de algumas, neste caso Angola, começou-se a assistir a mudanças nessa relação, as notícias recolhidas mostram que Portugal e Angola aumentaram as suas dinâmicas comerciais. Entre 2008 e 2015 a relação de Portugal e Angola caracterizou-se pelas intensivas trocas comerciais e os investimentos angolanos em Portugal. A imprensa portuguesa começou a aumentar o número de notícias que publicava sobre Angola a partir de 2007/2008 o que permitiu a construção de uma imagem sobre Angola, os angolanos e as relações com Portugal. Sobre Angola a imagem construída pela imprensa divide-se em dois blocos, entre 2008 e 2013, foi vista como um país que beneficiou Portugal, um parceiro comercial, um investidor. Entre 2013 e 2015, Angola começa a ter problemas económicos devido à quebra das receitas petrolíferas e a imagem construída modifica-se, a crise financeira e económica associam-se ao país africano. Sobre as relações de Portugal e Angola as notícias mostram que as principais características são uma balança comercial muito ativa e os investimentos angolanos em Portugal. A imagem construída sobre os angolanos está ligada à riqueza e ao poder económico.
The main objective of this dissertation is to identify and understand the image that the Portuguese press builds on Angola, Angolans and relations with Portugal. A documentary analysis was made of the news from four newspapers published between 2008 and 2015. The main themes identified were: cooperation, economy and migration. Portugal has always been one of the main partners of cooperation for the development of their former colonies but with the economic growth of some, in this case Angola, we began to watch changes in this relationship, the news collected show that Portugal and Angola have intensified their commercial dynamics. Between 2008 and 2015 the relationship between Portugal and Angola was characterized by intensive trade and Angolan investment in Portugal. Portuguese press began to increase the number of news published on Angola in 2007/2008 which allowed the construction of an image of Angola, Angolan and relations with Portugal. About Angola, the image constructed by the press is divided into two blocks, between 2008 and 2013, was seen as a country that benefited Portugal, a commercial partner, an investor. Between 2013 and 2015, Angola begins to have economic problems due to the fall in oil revenues and the built image changes, the financial and economic crisis are associated with the African country. On the relations between Portugal and Angola the news shows that the main characteristics are a very active trade balance and the Angolan investments in Portugal. The image built on the Angolans is linked to richness and economic power.

Magister Legum - LLMThis thesis focuses on Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in Angola and on constraints encountered by investors. It discusses the new Investment Law, resulting from a comprehensive law reform in 2003, as well as investment incentives destined to attract FDI into the territory, furthermore: the legal definitions of FDI and of “Investor”; the Angolan private international law; the main constraints (investment barriers) encountered by investors, after and before entering the Angolan territory; the legal protection afforded to investors, and some examples of FDI and their implications in Angola. The author also analyses investment and intra-trade within the Sub-Saharan region, Angola under modes 3 and 4 of GATS, and other aspects of foreign (as well as private) investment, including on what has been done and what should still be achieved under the SADC Trade, Finance and Investment Protocol from 2005 onwards. This analysis, it is hoped, will contribute to the better understanding of the implications and benefits of FDI in Angola, considering the recent increase of inflows of FDI, as well, as to what extent and how the Government should continue to control and direct, as well as encourage FDI. To conclude, the impact (positive -negative) of FDI in the Angolan society, economy and for the environment will be discussed. Together with the chapters describing the legal framework for FDI, these parts are intended to provide a better insight into the legal, economic and social background for investing and for doing business in Angola, and what type of protection investors can expect from the country, whilst information and academic materials on this subject matter continue to be scarce and difficult to access.

O presente trabalho, cujo tema reflecte uma pesquisa sobre a percepção do crescimento económico de Angola Pós-Independência, teve como objectivo geral identificar e avaliar os factores considerados explicativos desse crescimento económico, nomeadamente, o contributo do petróleo e dos diamantes. Para a sua realização foi adoptada uma metodologia de investigação de tipo qualitativo, com recurso pesquisa documental e à entrevista a especialistas como técnica de recolha de dados primários. A análise da informação foi realizada em função do objectivo de estudo por meio de análise dos conteúdos. Os resultados demonstram que embora os sectores petrolífero e diamantífero sejam de capital importância para o crescimento económico, há que ter em conta o modelo e qualidade de governação do estado e das instituições e as políticas adoptadas para garantir a provisão de serviços públicos para os mais carenciados e para orientar o processo de desenvolvimento económico e social, garantindo a observância das normas e princípios fundamentais e a melhoria dos indicadores. Apesar das dificuldades e limitações da pesquisa, seja pela qualidade da informação estatística e documental recolhida, muitas vezes contraditória em função da fonte considerada, seja pela falta de experiência de investigação e falta de disponibilidade dos entrevistados, os resultados encontrados permitem retirar algumas conclusões assim como sugerir orientações e pistas de pesquisa futura; ABSTRACT: This study, exploring the perception of the economic growth in Angola, post-independency, aimed identifying and assessing the factors considered to explain such economic growth, in particular, the contribution of oil and diamonds. For it’s, a qualitative research methodology was adopted, using documentary research and interviews with experts to collecting primary data. The data analysis was performed according to the purpose of the study by analyzing the contents. Results show that although the oil and diamond sectors are of crucial importance for economic growth. But it must take into account the style and quality of state governance and public institutions governance and the policies adopted to ensure the provision of public services to the poorest and to guide the process of economic and social development, ensuring compliance with standards and fundamental principles and indicators improved. Despite the difficulties and limitations of the research, related with the statistical information quality and the documentation accessed and collected, the results allow some conclusions as suggest guidelines for future research and clues.

A tese do Prof. Solival Menezes ocupa-se de analisar alguns aspectos da economia e da sociedade de Angola que, sob uma perspectiva lógica e histórica, permitem compreender a dinâmica que caracterizou a trajetória recente desse novo Estado nacional desde que, tornando-se liberto do colonialismo tardio português (em 1975), transformou-se em uma economia centralmente planejada até ser conduzido, posteriormente (pelos motivos examinados na tese), ao reencontro da economia de mercado e da democracia (em 1992). São examinadas algumas especificidades do longo colonialismo praticado em seu território visando a compreender de que modo a condição de economia dependente da metrópole se transferiu como legado ao novo país, condicionando os anos iniciais de sua fase soberana.This thesis analyzes some aspects of the economy and society of Angola that, from a logical and historic perspective, can help understand the dynamics that characterized the recent trajectory of this new state, since, becoming free of the \"late Portuguese colonialism\" (in 1975), became a \"centrally planned economy\" until to be conducted later (for the reasons discussed in the thesis) to a market economy with democracy (in 1992). There are examined some characteristics of the Portuguese colonialism practiced throughout Angolas history in order to understand how the condition of the metropolis dependent economy was transferred as a legacy to the new country, thereby affecting the early years of its sovereign stage.

Abstract:
In this thesis we analyze five possible monetary anchors for the Angolan economy in its transition to a scenario of complete monetary union in the context of the Sothern African Development Community (SADC): the American dollar, the euro, the sterling pound, the Japanese yen and South African rand. The empirical analysis follows the methodology proposed by Bayoumi and Eichengreen (1997), which operationalized the theory of optimum currency areas by creating an index that allows comparing the probability of success of alternative monetary integration projects. The study uses data for the period 1999-2012 and the results suggest that the current choice of connecting the Angola currency to the US dollar is the most appropriate. The second best option would be the currency of South Africa, a country that also participates in this project of economic and monetary integration and for which there has been real convergence with the Angolan economy.

Mestrado em Métodos Quantitativos para a Decisão Económica e EmpresarialO presente estudo contribui para o conhecimento da relação existente entre o petróleo e o desempenho económico de Angola. A componente teórica desta dissertação faz uma revisão da literatura sobre estudos acerca da relação entre o petróleo e o desempenho económico de países específicos ou grupos de países. É também feito um estudo da evolução económica de Angola, bem como as alterações verificadas nos indicadores económicos do país, face às alterações registadas na atividade petrolífera. Foram utilizadas observações anuais para o período [1990-2015]. Estimou-se um modelo de regressão linear que relacionou a variável dependente Produto Interno Bruto (PIB), com as duas variáveis independentes principais, nomeadamente, o preço e a producão de petróleo, e algumas variáveis de controlo, tais como a taxa de câmbio, exportações e inflação. De forma a garantir a validade deste modelo, foram testadas as hipóteses clássicas e assintóticas do Ordinary Least Squares (OLS). Foi ainda testada a cointegração Engle-Granger entre as variáveis de interesse. Conclui-se através do modelo inicial, da sua significância estatística e coeficientes, que existe uma relação positiva e significativa entre o preço e produção do petróleo e o PIB de Angola. Após realizados todos os testes, verifica-se que o modelo estimado é dinamicamente completo e que a sua inferência estatística é válida, entretanto não pode ser usado para interpretações mais detalhadas, uma vez que, após serem aplicadas as transformações necessárias, o modelo perde capacidade preditiva.
This study contributes for the knowledge of the relationship between oil prices and Angolan economic growth. The theoretical section of the present dissertation does a literature review regarding previous studies about specific countries or groups of countries. Furthermore, a study about the Angolan economic evolution, as well as the changes in the country's macroeconomic indicators towards the changes in oil activity, was also conducted. The study relies on annual data for the period between 1990 and 2015. A linear regression model was estimated to make a connection between the dependent variable Gross Domestic Product (GDP), the main variables oil price and production and the control variables, such as real exchange rate, export and inflation. To assure the quality of the model the Classical and Asymptotic OLS properties were tested. Engle-Granger cointegration was also tested between the dependent and the main variables. The thesis concludes that the initial model itself and its statistics, shows a long-term relationship between the variables. The findings show that the estimated model is dynamically complete and its statistics inferences are valid, even though the model cannot be used for further conclusions, because of the loss of the variables information during the tests.

Full textAbstract:
This work analyses the main lines of the attempts of the post-colonial state to ensure the implementation of a project of social change to respond to the expectations Angolans had of independence. Focusing on the functions and limits of the state and law, it aims to inquire about the barriers to social change generated by state intervention and the role of law in the shaping of social relations. After references to the colonial society and the social groups and responses it generated, the conditions in which Angola attained independence are summarised. Chapter 3 describes the project of change as in 1975 (the so-called socialist option) and the different changes in the constitutional framework up to 1989 as a result of political struggles, emphasising the progressive centralisation of decision-making within the state and related loss of participation of grassroots organisation. Part II deals with the central command economy. It describes the project of change in the period 1976-1988, as well as the different national and international factors leading to the failure of part of the avowed goals it aimed. Chapter 4 analyses the legal regimes of public enterprise and the planning system, from the standpoint of resource allocation and shortage, approaches of state bureaucracies to the system, problems of co-ordination and information, and struggles for the control of allocative apparatuses. Chapter 5 approaches the central command economy from the standpoint of control of wages and prices, statisation of trade and welfare provisions. It demonstrates that in the area of distribution the central command economy was not capable of satisfying the needs for consumer goods and lost the control of this economic area for the informal economy. Chapter 6 refers to specific problems of change in peasant societies and the policies of the post-colonial state to deal with them. Chapter 7 describes different aspects of post-colonial legislation dealing with international economic relations, emphasising the progressive fragmentation of state property rights under international contracting as one of the conditions for the failure of the attempts to implement a central command economy. The third part deals with the main lines of the 1988-1992 economic and political reforms, analysing their background and outcomes, within the (analytical) boundaries of the short time-span of these changes so far. The conclusions focus on the economic and social, national and international, boundaries of projects of radical change implemented from above in an underdeveloped country, on the role of the peripheral 'soft state' and on the functions performed by postcolonial economic law in promoting change and enabling social groups access to resources.

Dissertação de Mestrado em Relações InternacionaisA dissertação procura compreender como a descarbonização da economia mundial e a consequente descida dos preços do petróleo tem impactado nos países produtores de petróleo e as formas como os mesmos estão a lidar com a situação. A nossa investigação debruça-se sobre três economias, Angola, Arábia Saudita e Noruega, entre as quais se desenvolverá um estudo comparado quanto aos modelos de desenvolvimento adotados em cada um destes países. No presente trabalho procurámos fundamentar a nossa abordagem numa base teórica e empírica, assente no recurso a documentação pública dos estados, das organizações e agências internacionais, entre outros. No campo de investigação optámos por investigar junto de destacados agentes na cena energética e diplomática internacional e nacional dos países que servem de amostra ao nosso trabalho. Concluímos pela verificação de casos mais avançados de sucesso no desenvolvimento económico não exclusivamente assente nos recursos fósseis, mas também pela necessidade de adoção de estratégias e planos de alteração de paradigma mais assertivos em alguns dos domínios económicos analisados.
This dissertation seeks to understand how decarbonization of the global economy and the consequent drop in oil prices have impacted on oil producing countries and the ways in which they are addressing the situation. The research focuses on the economies of Angola, Saudi Arabia and Norway and discusses the comparative study conducted in terms of the development models adopted in each of these countries. This work has attempted both a theoretical and empirical approach based on a review of government documentation from the respective countries as well as documentation from a number of international organizations and agencies. Within the field of research, we have chosen to examine prominent actors in the energy sector and international diplomacy and in the domestic energy sectors of each of the countries serving as samples in this work. The research concludes by evaluating the more striking successes in economic development based not solely on fossil resources, but also on the need to adopt more assertive paradigm shifts in the strategies and plans of the three national economies studied.

Dissertação de Mestrado em FinançasTendo a sua origem antes do século XIX, ao longo dos anos, os bancos já existiam, mas as suas atividades eram simplesmente restritas aos proprietários das riquezas em forma de ouro ou prata em barras. Por segurança, estas riquezas eram deixadas sob tutela dos ouvires local, sendo este o único indivíduo que tinha a caixa-forte nessas áreas. Como este processo era muito lento e consumia muito tempo, tornou-se na prática que as pessoas passassem a trocar os recibos dos ouvires quando conduziam transações financeiras. Com o andar do tempo, os ouvires como recibos tornaram-se as primeiras notas bancárias. Este trabalho analisa até que ponto os bancos evoluíram, sob o ponto de vista de expansão ou distribuição, quais foram os indicadores quer sejam , económicos, políticos, sociais, tecnológicos que, direta ou indiretamente influenciaram e continuam a influenciar na evolução do sistema bancário internacional em geral e, em particular" nacional" no Caso de Angola.

As this process was very slow and time consuming, it became the practice that people pass the swap receipts listen when conducting financial transactions. With the passage of time, receipts became the first bank notes. This paper examines the extent to which banks have evolved, what were the economic factors and indicators and the development of major technologies and not only that directly or indirectly influenced and continue to influence the evolution of the international banking system and national, particularly in Angola, the every day the world surprises us

Full textAbstract:
Nos tempos passados era claramente notório a existência de maior dúvida sobre que estratégia deveria de fato a ser adotada pelos países, pois estes não tinham uma resposta clara em relação a possibilidade de haver ganhos em termos de comércio entre si, mas a ciência vem nos revelando nos dias de hoje de que é quase consensual que o comércio é importante para desenvolvimento ou crescimento das nações. Deste modo, a necessidade de manter relações comerciais passa a ser uma realidade quase que indiscutível nos dias de hoje para qualquer país que deseja prosperar.
Porém, sem deixar de reconhecer a importância do comércio internacional, é igualmente real que as relações comerciais entre países podem tanto possibilitar o alcance de certos benefícios, como perdas, razão pela qual se deve estudar de forma cautelosa sobre que impacto a liberalização do comércio externo pode provocar num país do ponto de vista das relações comerciais entre países .
Para o caso de Angola, um País que vem nos últimos anos procurando oportunidades de crescimento, analisar o impacto permite-nos avaliar, entre outros, que potencial o comércio externo na vertente liberalização pode representar para economia Angolana do ponto de vista de crescimento, pois do ponto de vista positivo a liberalização efetivamente pode contribuir para o crescimento, e representará um ganho para o País.
Foi escolhido analisar que impacto a liberalização do comércio pode provocar na economia de Angola? Assim, definimos como objectivo deste trabalho proporcionar uma visão geral sobre que impacto a liberalização do comércio pode provocar no crescimento de Angola, usando como referência o modelo VAR e análise de Cointegração com base em variáveis importantes, tais como (1) Taxa de crescimento anual do Produto Interno Bruto de Angola (em %), (2) Entrada líquida de Investimento Direto Estrangeiro anual em Angola ( em % anual do PIB), (3) Taxa de Inflação anual (em % anual), (4) Gau de Abertura Comercial anual de Angola e (5) Taxa de crescimento do Câmbio anual de Angola face ao dólar, sendo que de uma ou outra forma estas variáveis estabelecem uma ligação entre a liberalização do comércio e o crescimento de Angola; ABSTRACT:
In the past, it was clearly that there was more doubt about what strategy countries were supposed to adopt, because there was no a clear answer regarding the possibility of gains in terms of trade between nations, but science has been revealing that it is almost consensual that trade is important for development or growth of nations. In this way, the need to maintain commercial relations with other countries becomes nowadays a reality for any country that wishes to prosper.
However, while recognizing the importance of international trade, it is equally real and it should be noted that trade relations between countries can both make it possible to achieve certain benefits as well as losses, which is why to address the impact of trade liberalization can provoke in a country should be studied cautiously.
Angola, a country that has been looking for growth opportunities in recent years, such type of studies makes it possible to evaluate, among others, what potential external trade in the liberalization dimension may represent for Angolan economy in terms of growth, an option that if it effectively contributes to the growth will represent a gain for the country.
This study analyzes the impact trade liberalization may have on the Angolan economy in terms of trade. Thus, the objective of this work is to provide an overview of the impact of trade liberalization on Angola's growth, using as reference the VAR model and cointegration analysis based on important variables, such as (1) Annual Gross Domestic Product growth rate of Angola( annual %), (2) Foreign Direct Investment of Angola, net Inflow (annual % of GDP), (3) Inflation Rate of Angola (annual %), (4) Trade openness (annual ), (5) Growth rate of exchange rate of Angola's (annual %) against the dollar, and in one way or another these variables create condition to establish a link between trade liberalization and Angola's growth.

No entanto, o eficiente funcionamento do mercado de capitais angolano dependerá da qualidade e autenticidade da informação difundida, pois, não será possível promover e desenvolver adequadamente o mercado de capitais angolano sem ter em conta estes aspectos de extrema importância.
The present study aims to raise awareness about the process of institutionalization of capital markets in Angola, the light of the restructuring and modernization process of the National Financial System (SFN), thus allowing to identify the main factors and the great axles at will affect the evolution and development of the Angolan financial system; it is, undoubtedly, a significant step towards the regular and efficient operation of the capital markets in Angola. However, the efficient operation of the Angolan capital market will depend on the quality and authenticity of the information disseminated, as it won?t be possible to adequately promote and develop the Angolan capital market without taking into account these aspects of the utmost importance.

Doutoramento em EconomiaEste trabalho estuda o sistema financeiro angolano, pela investigação de como a organização deste e os diversos planos económicos elaborados desde 1987 até 1999, constituíram um entrave para a existência de um empresariado nacional capaz de assegurar o desenvolvimento económico sustentado. Angola constitui um "case-study" notável a vários títulos. Em particular, o País experimentou diversas reformas monetárias e financeiras nos últimos anos, e as regras de funcionamento são bastante peculiares quer nestes domínios quer noutros, com especial relevância para a recuperação da dinâmica e da solvabilidade económica e financeira das suas empresas. As reformas realizadas não tiveram em conta um estudo detalhado e objectivo da situação económica então prevalecente, tendo em conta a necessidade de estabilização da economia num contexto de conflito armado e uma conjuntura internacional caracterizada por grandes mutações. A grande vontade política de criar um ambiente macro-económico sadio para as empresas em Angola, chocou quase sempre com a falta de um sistema financeiro adequado. Esta situação foi agravada com a falta de segurança em quase todo o território nacional, que durou várias décadas. Foram feitas neste trabalho, propostas para melhorar o desempenho das empresas a partir da organização adequada do sistema financeiro e, deste modo, com as vantagens comparativas de Angola em relação aos outros países da África Austral, estas possam alcançar vantagens competitivas, no quadro internacional de apoio ao crescimento sustentado dos países em desenvolvimento.
This work studies the Angolan financial system, with investigations of how the organisation and the diverse economical elaborators, since 1987 through to 1999, constituted a hindrance for the existence of national businessman capable of assuring a sustaining economical development. Angola has constituted an intense case study, notable in various titles. Particularly, the country tried different monetary and financial ways over the last years, and the operating rules are particular within this system, with special reference to recuperating the dynamic and economic solvability as well as financial of enterprises. The realised reform didn't have in position a detailed study and objective of the economical situation so prevailing, taking into context the necessity of an established economy in context with conflict armed in an international categorised opportunity from change. The real political want and need was to create a macro-economic environment for the enterprises but they arrive at one thing the financial inadequacy. This situation was aggravated with the lack of security in all national territory, which lasted many decades. In this, proposals for better organisation of enterprises and adequate financial systems, like this, with comparative advantages of Angola, in relation with other Austral African countries, this may launch competitive advantages and International support, resulting in a substantial growth in underdeveloped countries.

Tese de Doutoramento em Ciência PolíticaEsta tese de doutoramento aborda a relação estabelecida entre duas corporações transnacionais brasileiras atuantes em Angola e Moçambique – a Odebrecht e a Vale – e os respectivos governos desses países entre os anos de 2002 e 2014. Busca-se identificar e compreender que tipo de interação entre público e privado molda tal relação no contexto da economia política local. Este estudo de caso comparativo emprega uma abordagem metodológica mista com predomínio da análise dados qualitativos coletados mediante entrevistas semiestruturadas e não estruturadas, além da observação participante e não participante. A quantificação utilizada é de caráter estatístico-demonstrativo e integra o mecanismo da triangulação metodológica juntamente aos dados qualitativos. A estrutura teórica desenvolvida na presente tese é sustentada por dois conceitos chave: condomínio estado-mercado (Underhill, 2000; 2001; 2003) e neopatrimonialismo (Erdmann & Engel, 2006; 2007). Ademais, a tese utiliza uma panóplia de concepções coadjuvantes de modo a melhor apreender o objeto de estudo, com destaque para: autoridade política e estruturas de poder (Strange, 1988), big business-national governments compact (Vernon, 2001) neoliberalismo disciplinar (Gill, 1995), políticas do ventre (Bayart, 2009) e gatekeeper state (Cooper, 2002). A interação estado-empresa observada no compact Odebrecht-governo angolano e no compact Vale-governo moçambicano apresenta-se enquanto simbiótica, condicionada por uma dinâmica co-constitutiva entre estado-mercado – ou público-privado – e pela rationale neopatrimonialista que caracteriza as conjunturas governativas de Angola e Moçambique. O mercado apresenta-se como lócus de autoridade política capaz de, junto aos respectivos governos, integrar o jogo político local pela manutenção do status quo político-partidário. Verificou-se, ademais, que no primeiro compact, há uma tendência ao equilíbrio no que se refere à distribuição da autoridade política entre empresa e governo. Já no caso da interação Vale governo moçambicano, observou-se uma tendência à concentração dessa autoridade sob os auspícios da mineradora, potencializando as tensões e os conflitos intracompact
The present thesis approaches the relationship established between two Brazilian transnational companies present in Angola and Mozambique – Odebrecht and Vale – and the local governments of these countries from 2002 to 2014. This work aims to identify and to understand which kind of interaction between public and private spheres shapes such relationship according to the local political economy of each country. This comparative case study is based upon a mixed methodology approach. There is, however, a prevalence of qualitative analysis and data gathered through semistructured and non structured interviews, besides participant and non participant observation. Quantification is employed as demonstrative statistics along with qualitative analysis following a methodological triangulation approach. The theoretical framework developed for this thesis is underpinned by two key concepts: state-market condominium (Underhill, 2000; 2002; 2003) and neopatrimonialism (Erdmann & Engel, 2006; 2007). In addition, the research employs a set of complementary notions with a view to a better understanding regarding the subject of study, such as: political authority and power structures (Strange, 1988), big business-national governments compact (Vernon, 2001), disciplinary neoliberalism (Gill, 1995), politcs of the belly (Bayart, 2009) and gatekeeper state (Cooper, 2002). The state-company interaction observed in the Odebrecht-Angolan government compact and in the Vale-Mozambican government compact presents itself as a symbiotic relationship, bounded by a co-constitutive dynamic between state and market – or public and private – and by the neopatrimonalist rationale which caracterizes both governative conjunctures. The market constitutes a political authority lócus – alongside the governments – capable of intgerating local political struggles for political-partisan status quo preservation. The study verified a tendency towards equilibrium regarding the political authority distribution between government and company in the first compact. As for Vale Mozambican government compact, this work pointed for a political authority highly centralized under Vale’s control, creating a potential environment for intracompact conflicts

Mestrado em Desenvolvimento e Cooperação InternacionalEste trabalho tem por objetivo compreender a dinâmica do sistema financeiro angolano desde 2002 até à atualidade, mais concretamente a dinâmica do sistema bancário, no sentido de poder tirar ilações sobre a influência que ele pode ter tido no crescimento económico de Angola. Procedeu-se a uma análise documental e tratamento estatístico de dados sobre o sistema bancário angolano e sobre o crescimento económico em Angola, ainda que com ferramentas muito simples, para além do conhecimento do autor, enquanto quadro do Departamento de Estudos Económicos do Banco Nacional de Angola. Concluiu-se que, apesar de existirem vinte e oito instituições bancárias em funcionamento em Angola, apenas cinco são imprescindíveis para o processo de intermediação financeira, ao deterem entre si, em média, mais de 75% de toda a quota de captação de depósitos e de concessão de crédito. Assim, pese embora o facto do sistema bancário angolano ter efectivamente contribuído para o crescimento económico do país, no período em análise, o aumento do número de bancos significou muito pouco na alavancagem do crescimento económico, por via do crédito bancário à economia, se excluídos os feitos e efeitos dos cinco maiores bancos.
This paper aims to understand the dynamics of the Angolan financial system from 2002 to the present, more specifically the dynamics of the banking system, in order to draw conclusions about the influence it may have had on Angola 's economic growth. A documentary analysis and statistical treatment of data on the Angolan banking system and on economic growth in Angola was carried out, although with very simple tools, besides the author's knowledge as a member of Department of Economic Research of the National Bank of Angola. It was concluded that, although there are twenty-eight banking institutions operating in Angola, only five are essential for the financial intermediation process, with an average of more than 75% of the total deposit and granting of credit. Thus, despite the fact that the Angolan banking system actually contributed to the country's economic growth in the period under review, the increase in the number of banks meant very little in the leverage of economic growth, through bank credit to the economy, if excluded the achievements and effects of the five largest banks.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis aims to investigate the reasons for the variation in China’s oil diplomacy performance in Africa and South America in the period 2000-2010. Lacking sound experience in pursuing oil security overseas and enjoying strong financial muscle, China’s oil diplomacy is largely rooted in the extension of soft loans for infrastructure to oil-rich countries in exchange for steady oil supply and favoured access to oil acreage. Taking Angola and Brazil as case studies this thesis argues that differences in the institutional structure of the oil industry in each country, determined different outcomes regarding Beijing’s oil security goals. This thesis has found that although this template fitted well with the more centralised institutional environment in Angola, it was highly unsuitable for the more liberal and regulated Brazil setting. Furthermore, the advent of the recent global economic crisis (2008-2009) caused China to adjust its approach to the institutional particulars of Brazil becoming more efficient in that country regarding its oil security goals. Building on foreign policy analysis tools and concepts, an empirical analysis of the interplay between Chinese infrastructure-for-oil loans (hereby regarded as positive economic statecraft) and the institutional structure it met in each country, is presented. Through the case studies, this thesis aims to uncover to what extent the institutional context constrained Chinese oil diplomacy efficiency in Brazil for most of the past decade, and how innovation has surfaced in the context of the global financial crisis. This analysis thus gives interesting insights not only into the dynamics of China’s oil diplomacy in Africa and South America, but also into Chinese economic statecraft in general and how constraints that surface at the implementation level feedback into foreign policy formulation.

The study shows the existence of a native political geo-economy based on "afro-centric" values in opposition to what is emicly called "eurocentrism".

Full textAbstract:
Le passé colonial a longtemps servi comme guide pour le gouvernement angolais et sa vision de réimaginer les espaces futurs dans la périphérie. Cependant, une confluence d’influences historiques et d’intérêts politiques a entravé la revitalisation du secteur au détriment de la production agricole et des angolais ruraux. Avec le secteur agricole comme toile de fond, nous essayons de montrer comment le modèle illibéral de la reconstruction de l’état a profité de sa présence ‘socialiste’ prolongée dans l’économie rurale pour retarder le développement des initiatives économiques indépendantes, a privé la paysannerie des ressources publiques, et a investi significativement dans des parties segmentées où le contrôle des ressources reste dans les flux d’influence des élites. Cette stratégie a effectivement abandonné une grande partie des populations rurales, bien que le monopole sur le pouvoir de la distribution des ressources se soit affaibli avec l’arrivée des acteurs non-étatiques dans la campagne. Ce nouvel élément a permis le renforcement de la capacité de pouvoir d’agir (agency) endogène rural, exemplifié par la formation de Rede Terra et sa campagne nationale pour influencer la dernière loi de la terre. La domination via l’abandon s’avère une stratégie efficace pour imposer son autorité où elle est la plus faible. Cependant, une intention véritable de diversification économique exigerait une approche plus populaire. Il reste à savoir si le gouvernement est disposé à renoncer à sa stratégie de dominationAngola’s colonial past has served as a symbolic lodestar for the government’s plans reimagining the future spaces of the countryside. However, a confluence of historical influences and partisan political aims has weighed heavy on the plans behind revitalizing the sector to the detriment of agricultural production and rural Angolans alike. With the agricultural sector as its backdrop, we attempt to expose how the government’s illiberal peacebuilding model has intentionally used its prolonged ‘socialist’ presence in the rural economy to stunt private economic initiatives, deprived its peripheral populations of public resources, and only significantly invested in segmented areas where resource control remained within elite channels of influence. This strategy effectively abandoned large swathes of rural communities, though the monopoly hold on the power of resource distribution was broken down with the arrival of Non-State Actors in the countryside. The entrance of this new element allowed for the strengthening of the capacity of endogenous rural agency, exemplified by the formation of Rede Terra and its national campaign to influence the latest land law. Domination through abandon has proven an effective strategy of imposing its authority where it remains the weakest, though any real attempt at economic diversification would require a more popular approach. It remains to be seen whether the government is willing to renounce its strategy of domination
O passado colonial angolano tem servido como uma estrela guiada pelo governo em sua reimaginação de espaços futuros na periferia. Entretanto, uma confluência de influências históricas e de alvos políticos pesou nos planos da revitalização do sector económico em detrimento da produção agrícola e das populações rurais. Tendo o sector agrícola como pano de fundo, tentamos, na nossa pesquisa, explicar como o modelo iliberal de reconstrução do país se tem aproveitado da presença ‘socialista’ estendida pelo governo na economia rural, a fim de tolher as iniciativas econômicas particulares, privando as populações de recursos públicos, investindo significativamente só em áreas segmentadas onde o controlo dos recursos permaneceram dentro de canais de influência das elites. Essa estratégia, efetivamente, abandonou grandes partes das comunidades rurais. Embora, o monopólio sobre o poder da distribuição de recursos se tenha fragilizado com a chegada dos atores não-estatais nas periferias. A presença desse novo elemento permitiu o fortalecimento da capacidade endógena da ação (agency) rural, exemplificado na formação da Rede Terra e sua campanha nacional mobilizada em torno da nova lei de terras. A dominação pelo abandono se revelou uma estratégia eficaz na imposição de sua autoridade onde ela permaneceu a mais fraca, porém qualquer tentativa genuína de diversificação económica requereria uma abordagem mais popular. A questão que fica é se o governo está preparado à renunciar sua estratégia de dominação

Esta dissertação propõe-se a analisar os impactos e os determinantes do investimento directo estrangeiro (IDE) na República de Angola entre os anos 2000 a 2006. O IDE possui uma importância fundamental nos países em via de desenvolvimento (PVDs), em particular; é tido como uma medida eficaz e eficiente na solução dos constrangimentos financeiros e de capacidades enfrentados pelos países dos PVDs, particularmente Angola.
O objectivo desse estudo é investigar e caracterizar o contexto histórico dos investimentos directo estrangeiro em Angola. Em seguida, identificar quais os factores que contribuem para a atração e quais os impactos do mesmo.
Através dos ganhos que advém das transferências de capitais e tecnologias, acesso a mercados internacionais, ganhos em moedas externas, efeitos no emprego, crescimento e aumento da capacidade de poupança interna o IDE impulsiona ainda o processo de desenvolvimento económico, contudo, existem várias escolas de pensamento económico, nomeadamente a visão neoclássica, marxista e estruturalista que possuem posições antagónicas relativamente ao IDE.
O presente trabalho tem a pretensão de servir como base de partida para futuras pesquisas sobre o assunto aqui analisando de forma a produzir novas conclusões para uma perfeita compreensão do fenómeno dos investimentos directos estrangeiros em Angola, portanto, não é nosso objectivo esgotar o assunto do tema proposto.
As principais conclusões da nossa pesquisa prendem-se na relevância do IDE que durante o período em análise (2000-2006) esteve confinado ao processo de reconstrução nacional.
O investimento directo estrangeiro se tem mostrado pouco sensível as medidas tradicionais de incentivos em Angola, por via disso, o pacote de incentivo tem revelando-se ineficaz para aquelas zonas definidas pelo governo angolano daí a sua concentração na capital (Luanda).
E por fim, embora o IDE tenha aumentado significativamente o volume das exportações, o impacto no crescimento e na balança de pagamentos é limitado, face a livre possibilidade de repatriamento dos lucros e alto grau de concentração e especialização, o que limita o escopo de substituição de importações e aumenta a volatilidade dos ganhos de exportações; ABSTRACT: This thesis proposes to analyze the impacts and the determinants of foreign direct investment (FDI) in Angola during the years 2000 to 2006. (FDI) has a fundamental importance in the developing countries (DVC) in particular, is regarded as an effective and efficient in solving the financial constraints and capabilities of DVC faced by countries, particularly Angola.
The aim of this study is to investigate and characterize the historical context of foreign direct investment in Angola. Then identify wich factors contribute to the attraction and the impacts thereof. Through the gains that comes from transfers of capital and TECHNOLOGICAL, access to international markets, gains in external currencies, impact on employment, growth and increase domestic savings capacity FDI drives even the process of economic development, however, hesitate to various schools economic thought, including neoclassical, Marxist and structuralist positions that have ant agonic respect to FDI. This work is still claiming to serve as a source of research for future research on the subject here looking for ways that new findings emerge for a full understanding of the phenomenon of foreign direct investment in Angola, so it is not our aim to exhaust the subject of proposed topic. FDI has proved to be less sensitive traditional measures of incentives in Angola, hence, the stimulus package has proven to be ineffective in those areas defined by the Angolan government and hence their concentration in the capital (Luanda). From 2000 to 2006 FDI is concentrated in the national reconstruction process with key sectors such as the "construction" related to property management which in turn covers only a small fraction of families with financial power in Angola, creating a weak link with society in general and there is no evidence that the IDE is generating domestic investment. Although significantly increased the volume of exports, the impact on growth and balance of payments is limited, given the possibility of free repatriation of profits and high degree of concentration and specialization, which limits the scope for import substitution and increased volatility earnings from exports.

Thesis (MBA (Business Management))--University of Stellenbosch, 2007.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The increasing global demand for and dependency on oil provides tremendous opportunities for oil-producing countries. Supported by the unprecedented economic growth in developing countries such as China and India, the global demand for oil is estimated to increase by 50% from the present 83 million barrels a day to 120 million barrels a day by 2025. This increased demand for oil provides the African oil industry with vast possibilities. Countries such as Angola, Cameroon and Nigeria are already experiencing a large increase in direct foreign investment, a higher Gross National Product en more favourable balance of trade. The logical conclusion from the abovementioned advantages of oil-rich countries would seem to imply a sharp rise in the standard of living for the citizens of these countries in the recent past. The purpose of this report is to determine if Angola, as the world’s fastest growing oil-producer in terms of increased production of barrels per day, offers its citizens an economically prosperous future. Points highlighted by the report include the inevitable problems caused by Angola’s colonial history and the recent twenty seven year long civil war. Angola faces internal and external problems caused by • “Dutch Disease” • Fluctuating oil prices • Poor governance • Institutional capacity China now plays an important if somewhat controversial role in Angola’s prosperity by providing finance and aid with less stringent conditions than Angola’s traditional sources. With Chinese aid Angola is now undertaking the rebuilding of its infrastructure which is essential to counteract the negative aspects of the country’s dependency on oil resource exploitation. There is still significant corruption within the oil industry and it seems clear that any attempts by international companies and non-governmental organisations to counteract the problem will have limited success unless the governments and all concerned parties take note of and accept new ethical and socially responsible codes of behaviour. Africa however is entering a new phase of accepting responsibility for its own internal problems. The democratisation of the continent is setting new standards for the fight against corruption. Finally the report indicates that there are lessons to be learned from other countries about using income from natural resources to benefit future generations. Countries such as Botswana (diamonds) and Norway (oil) use investment funds to limit their dependence on the resources and to counteract the effect of fluctuating prices of the commodities. Bearing in mind the above considerations, Angola cannot be expected to achieve success overnight, but the country has all that is required to eventually assume its rightful position on the continent and become another African economic success story.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die wêreld se toenemende vraag na- en afhanklikheid van olie bied tans geweldige geleenthede vir olie-produserende lande. Daar word beraam dat die wêreldwye vraag na olie, gesteun deur ongekende ekonomiese groei in ontwikkelende lande soos China en Indië, met meer as 50% van die huidige vlak van 83 miljoen vate per dag teen 2025 tot 120 miljoen vate per dag sal toeneem. Die moontlikhede wat hierdie verhoogde vraag vir die oliebedryf in Afrika bied, is legio. Lande soos Angola, Kameroen en Nigerië ondervind reeds ʼn groot toename in direkte buitelandse investering, ’n verhoging in bruto binnelandse produk en gunstiger handelsbalanse. In die lig van bogenoemde voordele vir lande wat ryk is aan oliehulpbronne, sou die logiese afleiding wees dat die lewenstandaard van die burgers van hierdie lande die afgelope paar jaar drasties moes verhoog het. Hierdie verslag het dit ten doel om te sien of Angola, wat die wêreld se vinnigs groeiende olieprodusent in terme van verhoogde produksie in vate per dag is, werklik sy burgers ekonomiese voorspoed vir die toekoms bied. Belangrike punte wat in die verslag na vore kom, is die onvermydelike probleme waarmee Angola te kampe het weens die land se historiese agtergrond en die onlangse burgeroorlog van sewe-en-twintig jaar. Interne en eksterne probleme wat Angola teister is die gevolge van • “Dutch Disease” • Skommelende oliepryse • Swak staatsbestuur • Institusionele kapasiteit China is ’n nuwe, hoewel ietwat kontroversiële, faktor in Angola se vooruitgang en stel minder beperkende voorwaardes as Angola se tradisionele bronne vir finansiering en hulpverlening. Met Chinese hulp is Angola nou besig met die heropbou van sy infrastruktuur, wat noodsaaklik is as hy die negatiewe aspekte van die land se afhanlikheid van olie-ontginning wil afskud. Korrupsie binne die oliebedryf is egter nog beduidend en dit is duidelik dat die pogings van internasionale maatskappye en nie-regeringsorganisasies om die probleem die hoof te bied, beperk sal bly tensy die regerings en alle belanghebbende partye kennis neem van nuwe etiese en sosiaal verantwoordelike optredes en dit aanvaar. Afrika gaan deur ’n nuwe fase waar die vasteland self verantwoordelikheid aanvaar vir sy interne probleme. Die demokratisering van die vasteland behels die aanvaarding van nuwe standaarde ten opsigte van die bekamping van korrupsie. Ten slotte noem die verslag dat daar lesse te leer is van ander lande wat hul inkomste uit hulpbron-ontginning tot voordeel van toekomstige geslagte aanwend. Lande soos Botswana (diamante) en Noorweë (olie) maak gebruik van beleggingsfondse om die land se afhanklikheid van die hulpbron te beperk en om die uitwerking van prysskommelings van die kommoditeit teen te werk. Met inagneming van bogenoemde oorwegings kan nie verwag word dat Angola oornag ekonomiese sukses sal behaal nie, maar die land het alles wat nodig is om mettertyd sy regmatige plek op die vasteland in te neem en na vore te tree as nog ’n ekonomiese suksesverhaal uit Afrika.

Dissertação apresentada para cumprimento dos requisitos necessários à obtenção do grau de Mestre em História Moderna e dos DescobrimentosThis dissertation explores Commerce, politics, and colonization in Angola at the turn of the eighteenth century. The work will discuss these topics through three main chapters that are spatially divided into the Angolan hinterland, the coastal region, and the Atlantic through the Angolan perspective. Separating the work into distinct geographical and conceptual boundaries makes it possible to discern the interconnectivity as well as the interdependency of Angola as an aggregate of the three geographical areas and Portuguese colonial forces. Making these important connections provides the means through which the way that these colonial processes transformed can be identified. The first chapter focuses on politics and colonization in the Angolan hinterland. It discusses methods of colonization and introduces political and commercial actors that are relevant in following chapters. The second chapter discusses the Angolan commercial structure on the coast, and its inherent connection to the hinterland and politics in the territory. The first two chapters set the stage through introducing major themes and characters that permit the disquisition to reach the Atlantic sphere in the final chapter. Here, the Angolan slave trade will serve to evince the manner in which events that occurred in Angola and in Brazil mutually impacted each other, and as a result, the hinterland and coastal merchants. This will be done through discussing the ideologies of slavery and Atlantic History that allow a deeper understanding of the parameters through which the slave trade can be studied as well as how Angola was deeply affected by isolated events that produced processes of change. The overarching thesis that this dissertation intends to prove is that politics, commerce, and colonization in Angola were intrinsically connected through economic motives that incited a period of transformation at the turn of the eighteenth century.

Full textAbstract:
This research discusses and analyses the role of construction in economic development in Sub-Saharan Africa, with a special emphasis on Angola and Mozambique. This study follows research undertaken by previous writers who have investigated the relationship between the construction sector and economic development and found a direct relationship between the share of construction in gross domestic product (GDP) and GDP per capita in an increasing form of per capita income level. Data on construction and economic related sectors spanning generally 22 years are used to model the development pattern of the construction industry in Sub-Saharan African countries for the near future. The statistical sources used in this analysis are drawn from World Bank and United Nations publications. Additionally, field study data, including collection of secondary data, from Angola and Mozambique are used in detail to complement data provided by international sources. The construction sector operating environment including policy changes in the area of general economic policy of these countries are also addressed in this study. Studies on construction in developing countries have tended to approach the construction industry in the context of the process of industrialisation, towards a long-term economic growth. It is argued that the new approach should focus the construction industry in the general framework of the determinants of growth. This thesis puts forward evidence that a long-term decreasing growth in GDP per capita corresponds directly to a relative decrease in construction volume. The converse does not appear to be true. Some implications for public policy for the concerned countries are discussed.

Thesis (MA)--Stellenbosch University, 2002.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Free trade is said to maximize welfare in a world organized by nation-states. To participate in the global economy more effectively most nation-states have implemented economic policies with the objective of freeing international trade. This movement has been facilitated by the process of globalization which has had unparalleled effects on the economic policies of countries worldwide. However, countries-have found it increasingly difficult to manage their economies at the multilateral level since the benefits of global free trade are not equally shared. This has led to an increase in Regional Integration Agreements (RIAs), which are seen as a tool for strategic growth and development while promoting free trade on a more restricted basis. In the last decades of the 20th century, the world has seen an increase in the number of RIAs particularly in Sub-Saharan Africa, However, empirical evidence has shown, contrary to what happened in Europe, that in Africa most attempts at economic integration have failed to promote meaningful economic growth and development. Notwithstanding that, the Southern African Development Community (SADC) has embraced economic integration as a strategy for growth in the region. Focusing on SADC and the Angolan economy as the main units of analysis, this study looks at the theory of economic integration to evaluate its validity for the African context and to find out how useful integration is in promoting economic growth and development in less developed countries. The study concludes that economic integration theory, which was developed within the context of European economies, is not relevant for African economies, which are different in character. Evidence indicates for instance, that in Africa the most important gains from economic integration are dynamic and not static, as the theory seems to suggest. Additionally, contrary to what happened in former attempts at forming RlAs in Africa, SADC has implemented a development integration approach aiming at industrialization. This is important, because according to the "Krugman-Venables model of regional relocation" the least developed countries can benefit from trade and investment from the most developed ones. The SADe Free Trade Protocol may be harmful for the Angolan economy in the short to medium term because of structural problems. However, it was found that if properly implemented it could playa major role in promoting growth and development in the longer term.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Vrye handel, so word beweer, vermeerder welvaart in 'n wêreld wat deur nasie-state georganiseer word. Die ekonomiese beleid van nasie-state is daarop gemik om internasionale handel te dereguleer, ten einde hulle in staat te stelom meer effektief binne die globale ekonomie deel te neem. Hierdie proses is gefasiliteer deur die verskynsel van globalisering wat ongeëwenaarde gevolge vir alle state in die wêreld meegebring het. Nietemin, vind state dit in toenemende mate moeilik om hierdie proses op multilaterale vlak te bestuur, aangesien die voordele van internasionale handel nie in gelyke mate gedeel word nie. Dit het gely tot 'n toename in Streeksintegrasie-Ooreenkornste (SIO's ). Hierdie ooreenkomste word beskou as 'n ekonomiese groei en ontwikkeling-strategie, terwyl internasionale handelop 'n meer beperkte grondslag bevorder word. Tydens die laatse dekades van die twintigste eeu, het die aantal SIO's (veral in Sub-Sahara Afrika) toegeneem. In teenstelling met die ervaring van die Europese Unie, dui die feite aan dat pogings tot ekonomiese integrasie in Afrika nie daarin geslaag het om betekenisvolle ontwikkeling en ekonomiese groei te bevorder nie. Nietemin, het die Suider-Afrikaanse Ontwikkelingsgemeenskap (SAOG) handels-integrasie aanvaar as 'n strategie vir ekonomiese groei in die streek (met as instrument die SAOG Vryehandel-protokol). Met fokus op die SAOG en Angola as eenhede van analise, evalueer die studie die liberale teorie van ekonomiese integrasie, ten einde uitspraak te lewer oor die geldigheid daarvan binne die konteks van Afrika, Tweedens, word daar ook aandag geskenk aan die vraag of ekonomiese integrasie 'n optimale strategie is vir die bevordering van ekonomiese groei en ontwikkeling in minder-ontwikkelde lande. Die gevolgtrekking wat gemaak word is dat ekonomiese integrasie (soos ontwikkel binne die Wes-Europese konteks) nie relevant is vir die eiesoortige omstandighede van Afrikastate nie. Daar is, onder andere, bevind dat die belangrikste voordele van integrasie in Afrika dinamies is, en nie staties nie (soos die teorie van ekonomiese integrasie dit in die vooruitsig stel). Daarby, en teenstrydig met vorige pogings tot die vorming van SIO's in Afrika, het die SAOG 'n ontwikkelings integrasie benadering aanvaar. Hierdie benadering is gemik op eweredige industrialisering in die streek. Dit is 'n belangrike punt, want volgens die "Krugman-Venables model van streekshervestiging" kan die minder ontwikkelde state voordeel trek van handel met, en beleggings uit die meer ontwikkelde state in die streek. Laatstens, is daar bevind dat die SAOG Vryehandel-protokol in die kort tot medium termyn nadelige gevolge vir Angola sal meebring. Dit is as gevolg van strukturele probleme in die Angolese ekonomie. Nietemin, indien behoorlik geïmplementeer, kan dit 'n betekenisvolle rol speel in die bevordering van ekonomiese groei en ontwikkeling oor die lang termyn.

Thesis (MTech (Business Administration))--Cape Peninsula University of Technology, 2015.The necessary skills and knowledge on how to open and manage a business can be mastered but the uncertainties during decision-making, as well as the risks, obstacles and barriers present in the business environment can change established ways of conducting a business. However, identifying the causes of such uncertainties, risks and obstacles is essential as it may reduce the probability of failure in the future, and supports effective policy-making. The purpose of this thesis was to examine the factors contributing to the failure of small enterprises in the Luanda province in Angola, with three specific objectives: to assess the critical management and financial factors; to examine the effect of market competition; and to assess the factors in the economic conditions associated with the causes of small business failures. Recommendations made to government could mitigate the high number of business failures. Similar studies were conducted in countries other than Angola. As alarmingly high rates of business failure exist in Angola, this study sought to examine the factors associated with such failures. This research was conducted under a positivism theoretical perspective and a quantitative research method was adopted. A questionnaire was the primary data collection instrument and the snowball sampling technique was employed. Questionnaires were distributed to 130 small business owners and managers who had experienced business failures and 108 questionnaires were collected. Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software was used to analyse the quantitative data which was collected. Results were statistically descriptive in nature and presented in tables, pie charts, and bar charts. The results indicated that critical factors which influenced the failure of small enterprises in Angola were: small business owners and managers lacked knowledge of business systems; small business owners and managers lacked financial accounting skills; and negligence by small business owners and managers in planning and controlling business resources. This indicates that institutions do not actively promote entrepreneurship knowledge and skills development and there is an absence of successful entrepreneur role models and business mentors or coaches for entrepreneurial capacity-building. Among others factors influencing business failure in Viana, this study identified a lack of economic support and availability of fundamental business resources such as raw material, skilled people and finance, rigid policy-making regulations, and a high level of corruption and theft in the country, to the extent that the small business may lack money and is unable to continue operations.The study recommends that since most small businesses operate on a basis of sole decision-making, it is important that the entrepreneur/manager should make a concerted effort to acquire the necessary knowledge and skills in management and finance systems, primarily to start a business or as needed, so that risk and probability of failure can be reduced. Policy-making should consider support structures for entrepreneurial capacity building, increase the production of primary products and raw material, provide entrepreneurial training and skills development (higher education), and develop mechanisms to allow easy access to information, reduce trading restrictions and reduce crime.

Tese de Mestrado em EstratégiaO objetivo deste estudo consiste em fazer a avaliação do potencial estratégico de Angola. Sendo Angola um país com elevado potencial em termos de recursos naturais, importa fazer uma avaliação detalhada, assente na aplicação do modelo de estudo apresentado pelo General Cabral Couto, para percebermos o nível de potencial que o país possui e concluirmos qual é a posição estratégica de Angola no contexto regional e mundial. Trata-se de um estudo exploratório, assente num levantamento documental, entrevistas e pesquisas bibliográficas, com a finalidade de apurar as potencialidades e vulnerabilidades existentes no Estado angolano. As fontes a que recorremos para a investigação do objeto de estudo são documentos e monografias localizadas nos vários Ministérios e algumas instituições do país, jornais locais, canais de televisão angolanos e livros referentes ao assunto. Ao longo do trabalho fazemos a avaliação dos principais fatores latentes, concluindo acerca das suas potencialidades e vulnerabilidades. Os fatores analisados são físico, humano, recursos naturais e comunicações, histórico, económico, sociocultural, científico-tecnológico, político-administrativo e militar. Apesar de Angola possuir potencial que lhe permite se transformar numa potência regional, (recursos naturais, território vasto, organização militar, crescimento da sua economia, coesão social), a deficiência no seu capital humano, o atraso tecnológico, a falta de inovação e a debilidade das suas instituições são obstáculos para a sua ascensão e grandes vulnerabilidades que o país precisa de ultrapassar.
The objective of this study consists in evaluating the strategic potential of Angola. Angola is a country with high potential in terms of natural resources. This study makes a Angolan detailed assessment based on the model presented by General Cabral Couto, in order to identify its strategic position, in the regional and in the global context. This is an exploratory study, based on a documentary survey, interviews and literature searches, in order to ascertain the potential and vulnerabilities of the Angolan State. The sources used to achieve the object of study are documents and papers located in various Ministries and institutions of the country, local newspapers, TV programs and books about the Angolan issue. Throughout the study we evaluate the main latent factors, concluding its strengths and vulnerabilities. Factors to be analyzed are particularly physical, human, natural resources and communications, historical, economic, socio-cultural, scientific-technological, political and administrative, military. Although Angola has a potential to become a regional power (natural resources, vast territory, military organization, growth in the economy, social cohesion), deficiency in its human capital, technological backwardness, lack of innovation and weak institutions are a barrier to its rise and major vulnerabilities that the country needs to overcome.

- La recopilación y ordenación del material referente a los sistemas financieros de los tres países estudiados con la finalidad de contribuir a enriquecer la muy escasa base bibliográfica de Angola, sobre los intermediarios financieros, los mercados y los medios, referidos estos últimos tanto a los activos financieros como a las medidas de política monetaria y financiera de las autoridades, dirigidas a hacer posible alcanzar los grandes objetivos de la política económica nacional y a la consecución de los fines específicos de cada uno de los sistemas financieros;
- Contrastar el sistema financiero actual de Angola con los sistemas financieros de España y Cabo Verde, destacando las características comunes y diferenciadoras de los tres sistemas, sus analogías y diferencias, sus interrelaciones, sus mayores o menores niveles de desarrollo, sus puntos fuertes y débiles, sus oportunidades y amenazas, etc.;
- Proponer recomendaciones, políticas o reformas para la mejora y desarrollo del Sistema Financiero de Angola.
La presente tesis está dividida en cuatro partes.
La primera, compuesta por seis capítulos, estudia las generalidades de un Sistema Financiero.
La segunda presenta el Sistema Financiero de Angola y está constituida por doce capítulos.
Iniciaremos el estudio con la exposición de la evolución, características generales y estructura del sistema financiero, haciendo referencia a los rasgos fundamentales de la economía de Angola; profundizaremos en el estudio de las autoridades monetarias y financieras, con énfasis en la de carácter ejecutivo más relevante, el banco central de Angola y su aplicación de la política monetaria nacional; a continuación analizaremos las principales medidas de control y supervisión en vigor, que afectan a las entidades de crédito, pasando después al estudio de dichas instituciones, comenzando por las bancarias, terminando con las instituciones no bancarias y, en general, con todos los intermediarios financieros: compañías de seguros, casas de cambio, fondos de pensiones, etc., procurando siempre alguna información estadística sobre ellos.
La tercera parte está compuesta por dos capítulos: el referente al sistema financiero de España, su evolución hasta los años ochenta y el capítulo que estudia el sistema financiero de Cabo Verde, su evolución hasta la actualidad.
Para el análisis de los tres sistemas financieros de Angola, Cabo Verde y España hemos intentado seguir una línea argumental común, lo que nos facilitará el estudio, la comprensión y la comparación de los mismos.
Por eso, para el caso de España y Cabo Verde, vamos seguir la ordenación que utilizamos para Angola.
La cuarta parte está formada por dos capítulos: el capítulo vigésimo primero que refleja el estudio comparativo de los sistemas financieros estudiados, especialmente desde la perspectiva del sistema financiero angoleño y a modo de conclusiones generales, comparándose también los tres países estudiados con otros países a la escala de África y mundial. En segundo lugar, presentamos un análisis interno y externo del entorno competitivo de cada uno de los sistemas financieros estudiados aplicando la Matriz DAFO o SWOT. Por último, el capítulo vigésimo segundo, que contiene las posibles propuestas para el Sistema Financiero Angoleño frente al futuro.
Presentamos las conclusiones y recomendaciones del trabajo y, para finalizar, indicamos la bibliografía consultada y un Anexo que contiene los cuestionarios realizados y la explicación de los resultados de algunos cuadros elaborados en la comparación de los tres sistemas financieros estudiados.
This paper aims to provide an overview of the current financial system in Angola, with the aim of presenting policy alternatives and improvement. Moreover, conducting a comparative study with the financial systems in Spain in the eighties and the current of Cape Verde.
The present study has for aims:
- The summary and arrangement (ordination) of the material relating to the financial systems of three countries studied with the purpose of helping to enrich the very scanty bibliographical base of Angola, on the financial intermediaries, the markets and the means (ways), recounted the above mentioned both to the financial assets and to the measures of monetary and financial politics (policy) of the authorities, directed to making possible to reach the big aims of the economic national politics(policy) and to the attainment of the specific ends (purposes) of each one of the financial systems;
- To confirm the financial current system of Angola with the financial systems of Spain and Cape Verde, emphasizing the common and not common characteristics of three systems;
- To propose recommendations, policies or reforms for the improvement and development of the Financial System of Angola.
The present thesis is divided in four parts (reports).
The first one composed by six chapters, studies the generalities of a Financial System.
The second one presents the Financial System of Angola.
The third part (report) is composed by two chapters: the modal to the financial system of Spain and the chapter that studies the financial system of Cape Verde.
For the analysis of three financial systems we have tried to follow (continue) a plot common line, which will facilitate to us the study, the comprehension and the comparison of the same ones.
The fourth part (report) is formed(trained) by two chapters: the first that reflects the comparative study of the financial studied systems and an internal and external analysis of the competitive environment of each one of the financial studied systems applying the Matrix DAFO or SWOT; the second Angolan presents the possible offers of future for the Financial System.

Dissertação de Mestrado em Gestão e Políticas PúblicasAngola é um dos maiores países de África e com maior riqueza em recursos naturais. Durante quase três décadas viveu tempos difíceis de guerra civil, mas com o fim da mesma, em 2002, o país começou a dar passos significativos rumo ao desenvolvimento. Em apenas cerca de dez anos Angola atingiu a primeira meta dos objetivos do milénio, reduzindo para metade o número de cidadãos que viviam no limiar da pobreza. Sendo um país com um enorme potencial económico, o seu nível de crescimento, na última década, tem despertado atenções por parte da comunidade internacional. Atualmente a economia angolana, fortemente assente na indústria petrolífera, tem vindo a enfrentar novos desafios nomeadamente a necessidade de promover a diversificação da economia. O presente estudo tem como objetivo identificar e estudar os fatores que mais contribuíram para o crescimento económico em Angola no período entre 2007 e 2013, recorrendo a um tipo de pesquisa de cariz simultaneamente qualitativo e quantitativo. Optou-se por métodos de investigação de caráter exploratório e explicativo, dando-se preferência à pesquisa bibliográfica e à análise documental. Assim, para a realização deste estudo recorreu-se a pesquisa e revisão bibliográfica sobre o tema bem como a análise documental do material recolhido, junto de entidades públicas em Angola. Recorreu-se também a uma análise exploratória quantitativa que consistiu na recolha de dados quantitativos de diferentes fontes e na sua análise e interpretação. Conclui-se, com base no estudo efetuado, que, no período entre 2007 e 2013, os parâmetros do crescimento económico em Angola mais relevantes são o PIB per capita, o consumo público, as importações e exportações, a taxa de juro e a taxa de câmbio. Os dados económicos analisados permitiram confirmar um crescimento desde a crise de 2009 até 2013. No entanto é de salientar uma desaceleração do crescimento da economia em 2015 e o impacto da queda do preço do petróleo.
Angola is one of the largest countries in Africa and greater wealth in natural resources. For nearly three decades he lived difficult times of civil war, but the end of it, in 2002, the country began to take significant steps towards development. In just about ten years Angola reached the first goal of the objectives of the millennium, halving the number of citizens living below the poverty line. Being a country with huge economic potential, the level of growth in the last decade, has attracted attention from the international community. Currently the Angolan economy, heavily reliant on the oil industry, has been facing new challenges including the need to promote diversification of the economy. This study aimed to identify and study the factors that contributed to economic growth in Angola between 2007 and 2013, using a kind of both qualitative and quantitative-oriented research. We chose to exploratory and explanatory character research methods, giving preference to literature and document analysis. So for this study we resorted to research and literature review on the subject and the documentary analysis of material collected from public entities in Angola. It also appealed to a quantitative exploratory analysis consisting of the collection of quantitative data from different sources and their analysis and interpretation. It can be concluded, based on the collection of data carried out that in the period between 2007 and 2013, the parameters of economic growth in Angola, most relevant are the GDP per capita, public consumption, imports and exports, the interest rate and the exchange rate. Economic data analyzed possible to confirm growth since the crisis of 2009 to 2013. However it should be noted a slowdown in economic growth in 2015 and the impact of the oil price fall.

Thesis (MA)--University of Stellenbosch, 2003.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This report seeks to investigate the extent and success of multilateral foreign aid aimed at poverty alleviation in two countries, Angola and Zambia. Links between aid, economic growth, and poverty alleviation are also investigated. It is found that aid alone cannot create economic growth in order to alleviate poverty, and growth from aid alone is not sustainable - as the case study of Zambia shows. In Zambia, aid did not have enough impact to change the legacy of unsound economic polices, as the institutions that led these processes lacked the capacity to design sound policies to manage the aid projects. In the case of Angola, the whole process of using aid for poverty alleviation was seriously retarded by the civil war. The war is clearly one of the major causes of the poverty that exists in Angola - unlike in the case of Zambia where poverty is a chronic situation. As poverty alleviation is critical to both these countries, they should concentrate on empowering the poor with capacity-building skills, and multilateral aid should promote this. In terms of aid agreements with multilateral institutions, conditions must be in place before aid is granted to promote the interests of the poor. Well-designed aid can be successfully implemented, and can be sustainable. However, this will work only if all stakeholders from the bottom to the top are actively involved in the planning through to the implementing stages. Apart from empowering the poor, government and multilateral agencies also need to encourage the growth of the private sector in these two countries.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie verslag stelondersoek in na die omvang en sukses van multilaterale hulpverlening aan Zambië en Angola wat gemik is op die verligting van armoede. Die verband tussen hulpverlening, ekonomiese groei en armoedeverligting word ook ondersoek. Daar word bevind dat hulpverlening nie outomaties aanleiding gee tot groei -plus-armoedeverligting nie, en dat ekonomiese groei wat op hulpverlening gebaseer is, onvolhoubaar is, soos Zambië illustreer. In Zambië kon hulpverlening nie daarin slaag om swak ekonomiese beleid reg te ruk nie, vanweë die gebrek aan institusionele kapasiteit. In die geval van Angola was pogings om hulp te benut vir armoedeverligting ernstig in die wiele gery deur die burgeroorlog, een van die hoofoorsake van armoede in Angola. Aaangesien armoedeverligting "n kritiese uitdaging vir albei state is, moet die armes bemagtig word deur kapasiteitsbou, en multilaterale hulp moet daarvoor geoormerk word. Dit impliseer dat hulpverleningsooreenkomste aan voorwaardes wat die armes bevoordeel, onderworpe moet wees. Goed-ontwerpte hulp kan suksesvol toegepas word, en kan volhoubaar wees. Dit voorveronderstel egter dat alle belangegroepe aktief betrek word. Naas die bevordering van die belange van die armes, moet die privaatsektor in albei state ook verder uitgebou word.

Full textAbstract:
Angola is currently the fifth-largest diamond producer in the world. Yet neither the politics nor the history of Angola's diamond trade receives much attention either in the Angolan scholarship or the thematic literature on the mining sector more generally. The gap in the literature is significant, for diamond companies produce far more than revenue and profits: for some one hundred years, the diamond sector has governed, policed, defended, and controlled the strategic, diamond-rich provinces of Lunda Sul and Lunda Norte. This thesis explores the historical trajectory of the diamond sector in the Lundas. It concentrates on the powerfully symbiotic relationship between the diamond sector and the state from the colonial period to the present time. Drawing on a wide range of untapped official documents as well as interviews, it argues that the diamond sector has functioned historically as the conduit through which the state projects its power and secures its interests in a strategic but hostile territory. The thesis further shows how the politics of resource control both define the state’s strategies towards the diamond sector and perpetuate the entrenched system of privatised governance that has existed in the Lundas for more than a century. The thesis builds upon both the historical and contemporary literature on the mining sector and the literature on state formation. It challenges the conventional notion that the persistent power of private companies in Africa is the result of state weakness or state absence, underlining instead how state leaders instrumentalise and empower companies according to their changing priorities. It also considers the implications of this case study more broadly through a cross-case analysis of mining politics elsewhere in Africa. In the process, this study provides an original approach to state–mining sector relations that is of relevance to scholars working on the politics and political economy of state-making and of resources extraction in Africa.

This study investigated the survival strategies adopted by the San in Cunene Province in Southern Angola. The study intended first to gain understanding of the economic activities that the San in Cuanhama municipality districts of Kafima Centre and Etale La Mulovi employ to sustain their livelihoods. Secondly, the study explored how accessible the basic social services of education and health were to the San in these communities. Utilising qualitative research methods, face-to-face interviews and focus group research were conducted. From the data collected on education the study findings show that none of the children from both communities were enrolled at any school. To this end, at Kafima Centre the main hindering factors that contributed inter alia included hunger at school, stigmatization by the neighbouring community and poverty among San communities. At Etale La Mulavi San community there was lack of educational facilities near the San habitations, constituting a key hindering factor to accessing education. On health, the closer the public health centre was to the San community the more the San utilised the health services for treatment and management of common diseases like Malaria and cough as well as other diseases. On survival strategies both San communities “okunhanga” ‘go.. and look for..’ (fending for food) was the primary survival strategy the San were involved in for the sustenance of their livelihoods. The findings informed the recommendations in chapter five of this study.

Mestrado em Ciências EmpresariaisO estudo aponta que com o surgimento da crise global que assola o mercado financeiro angolano, em particular, os bancos, que são as principais fontes de financiamento externo das PME, tornaram-se mais exigentes na avaliação de crédito criando assim dificuldades às PME - o que condiciona o surgimento de novas (PME) e o crescimento das existentes. Os resultados desta investigação terão interesse no setor das PME, na banca, bem como no seio das entidades governamentais e académicas, numa altura em que se debate sobre as políticas de relançamento e/ou diversificação da economia angolana, onde as PME se constituem na maior alavanca para a sua concretização. Ficou provado através do inquérito cujos dados foram analisados por software Statistical Package for the Social Sciences, dentre outras situações, que: a maior parte dos bancos em Angola estabelece vínculo relacional com as PME como estratégia de negócio para conceder empréstimos e aumentar a sua quota de mercado. As garantias e o tipo de negócio que as PME realizam são caraterísticas principais dos bancos na avaliação de créditos. A falta de demonstrações financeiras, a apresentação de projetos de negócios pouco sólidos, a falta de garantias, o incumprimento dos prazos de reembolso, a opacidade informacional, a discordância nas taxas de juros oferecidas, as fragilidades contabilísticas apresentadas, o tipo de negócios que realizam e as caraterísticas dos colaterais se constituem na base das dificuldades das PME no acesso ao financiamento. Os empréstimos de médio/longo prazo são os mais solicitados.
The study points out that with the onset of the global crisis plaguing the Angolan financial market, banks in particular, which are the main sources of external financing for SMEs, have become more demanding in credit assessment, thus creating difficulties for SMEs - which conditions the emergence of new (SMEs) and the growth of existing ones. The results of this research will be of interest in the SME sector, in the banking sector, as well as in governmental and academic entities, at a time when there is debate about policies to relaunch and / or diversify the Angolan economy, where SMEs are the largest lever for its realization. It was proved through the survey, whose data were analyzed by software Statistical Package for the Social Sciences, among other situations, that: most banks in Angola establishes a relational link with SMEs as business strategy to grant loans and increase their share of Marketplace. The guarantees and the type of business SMEs carry out are the main characteristics of the banks in the evaluation of credits. The lack of financial statements, the presentation of weak business projects, lack of guarantees, non-compliance with repayment terms, information opacity, disagreement in interest rates offered, accounting weaknesses presented, the type of business they carry out and the characteristics of collateral are the basis of SMEs' difficulties in accessing finance. Medium / long term loans are the most sought after.

Mestrado em FinançasEsta dissertação tem por objectivo analisar empiricamente a relação entre o desenvolvimento do sistema financeiro e o crescimento económico de Angola no período de 1999 a 2007. Para este trabalho construiu-se um painel de dados que se utilizou para estimar uma regressão linear que procurou analisar a relação entre o crescimento económico (o PIB real per capita) e quatro variáveis explicativas: duas representativas da evolução do sistema financeiro e duas variáveis de controlo. Os resultados sugerem que a variável crédito privado embora apresente um coeficiente com sinal positivo não é estatisticamente significativa. A variável M2 revela-se estatisticamente significativa, apresentando um efeito positivo no crescimento económico. Quanto às variáveis de controlo, o IPC e o grau de abertura ao exterior, também apresentam um impacto significativo no crescimento económico de Angola, contudo, enquanto que a primeira tem uma relação negativa a segunda tem uma relação positiva.
This thesis aims to analyze empirically the relationship between the development of the financial system and economic growth in Angola from 1999 to 2007. For this study we constructed a panel data that was used to estimate a linear regression sought to analyze the relationship between economic growth (real GDP per capita) and four explanatory variables: two representing the evolution of the financial system and two variables control. The results suggest that the private credit variable although it has a coefficient with positive sign is not statistically significant. The variable M2 turns out to be statistically significant, showing a positive effect on economic growth. Regarding the control variables, the CPI and the degree of external openness, also have a significant impact on economic growth in Angola, however, while the former has a negative relationship the second has a positive relationship.

Full textAbstract:
This dissertation explores the experiences and economic performance of the two established petroleum producers in sub-Saharan Africa, and identifies what lessons can be learned and adopted or avoided by emerging hydrocarbon producers in the continent. Over 30 countries in sub-Saharan Africa are at varied stages of petroleum exploration and oilfield development, with increasing success, particularly along the western coast from Mauritania in the north to Namibia in the south. It is important for this new-found wealth to be properly managed in order to improve the lives of millions of Africans living in abject poverty. Chapter 1 presents an overview of the Sierra Leone economy and demonstrates the unfortunate link between natural resource endowment, violent conflict, political instability, and economic deterioration. Chapter 2 explores the relevant literature on the economic performance of resource-rich countries, particularly petroleum producers, with regard to the Resource Curse Hypothesis and Resource-Based Industrialization (RBI). Chapters 3 and 4 provide a comparative study on the experiences and economic outcomes in Nigeria and Angola, which have production levels at around 2.5 and 1.4 million barrels per day respectively. Both chapters investigate whether the economic success or failure in each country can be attributed to historical socio-political factors such as the slave trade, colonization, ethnic-religious differences, and civil wars, or to recent management-related factors such as the improper management of their oil industries, poor political leadership and decision-making, inefficient resource allocation, and the lack of a viable long-term economic diversification strategy. Chapter 5 provides an insight into how emerging oil-producing countries like Sierra Leone can better approach the problem of managing their future petroleum industries and successfully diversify into sustainable industries.

Dissertação de Mestrado em EstratégiaA proposta do presente trabalho de Mestrado em Estratégia, do Instituto Superior de Ciências Sociais e Políticas, consiste em estudar as Estratégias e Políticas de Desenvolvimento para a Diversificação da Economia Angolana: A Promoção do Investimento Privado. Neste quadro, pretendemos analisar o Investimento Direto Estrangeiro e os desafios que este apresenta para o desenvolvimento económico nacional do Estado angolano. Nesta dinâmica e de acordo com diversos autores, o IDE tem tido um papel cada vez mais importante, impulsionando o desenvolvimento económico e social de diversos países. O presente estudo procurou averiguar a evolução das estruturas produtivas angolanas, compreender as estratégias de negócio do interesse dos agentes em operação no mercado, a tipologia da intervenção do Estado na economia e a necessidade de se passar de um modelo de especialização primária para um modelo alternativo de desenvolvimento económico. Este estudo visou ainda responder a seguinte questão de partida: Qual a estratégia de desenvolvimento económico a implementar pelo Estado angolano, tendo em vista o adequado aproveitamento dos recursos existentes e a satisfação das necessidades da população em geral? Concluímos que a diversificação é uma preocupação das economias e a economia angolana não constitui exceção. As transformações para que tal aconteça exigem infraestruturas de recursos humanos e de capital e políticas consistentes e, na verdade, Angola continua, ainda, muito dependente da receita petrolífera, o que dificulta tal processo. Por fim concluímos que Angola tem sido o destino de uma boa parte do IDE orientado para África, sendo o setor petrolífero o que mais tem beneficiado desta evolução, pelo que entendemos que o país precisa de fazer mais para diversificar a atividade económica, melhorando o ambiente de negócios a fim de atrair mais investimentos para os diversos setores, implementando-se, um modelo de substituição de importações, o qual é para alguns autores, o mais adequado para economias em transição.
The purpose of this Master's work Strategy, presented in the Institute of Social and Political Sciences, is to study the strategies and development policies for the diversification of the Angolan Economy: Promotion of Private Investment. In this context, we intend to analyze the Foreign Direct Investment and the challenges it poses to the national economic development of the Angolan State. In this dynamic, according to several authors, FDI has played an increasingly important role in boosting economic and social development of many countries. This study aimed to investigate the evolution of the Angolan production structures, understand the business strategies in the interest of agents operating in the market, the type of state intervention in the economy and the need to move from a primary specialization model to an alternative economic development model. This study aimed to further answer the question of departure: What is the economic development strategy to be implemented by the Angolan State, in view of the proper use of existing resources and meeting the needs of the general population? We conclude that diversification is a concern of economies and the Angolan economy is no exception. The changes for this to happen require infrastructure of human resources and capital and consistent policies and, in fact, Angola has been the target of much-oriented FDI to Africa, with the oil sector that has benefited most from this trend, so we understand that the country needs to do more to diversify economic activity, improving the environment business in order to attract more investment to the various sectors, by implementing a replacement model imports, which is for some authors the most appropriate for economies in transition.

Thesis (MA)--University of Stellenbosch, 2011.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: African affairs have traditionally not occupied a central place in Norway’s official foreign policy, and relations with countries in West Africa have been limited. However, in recent years, resource-rich countries such as Angola – Africa’s largest oil producer – have become the focus of Norwegian strategic interests. Private and public investments are increasing rapidly, paralleling a larger focus on aid. Today, Angola is a core country within Norway’s most prominent petroleum-related assistant programme, Oil for Development (OfD). This thesis will aim to contribute, by means of a critical political economy analysis, to a better understanding of Norway’s role in Angola through OfD. Specifically, this study aims to question who and what structures Norway really is aiding in Angola. Such an objective will be achieved by firstly using critical theory to demonstrate Norway’s role as a traditional middle power – through which Norway seeks to export an altruistic perception of a ‘do-good- image’ – is underpinned by a deeper national self-interest. Secondly, the thesis questions the theoretical foundation of OfD, and, thirdly, it attempts to identify whom the OfD programme is aiding. Ultimately, the thesis questions whether Norway is promoting sustainable development in Angola, or whether, instead, it is contributing to maintaining a status quo, from which Norway as a middle power continues to benefit. The study illustrates that Norway, as a middle power, has neither the capacity nor the national self-interest to achieve fundamental change in Angola. Norway’s commitment to the good governance agenda, and the belief in solutions offered by the resource curse thesis, is tackling the symptoms of Angola’s underdevelopment, rather than its root causes. OfD adopts a state-centric approach, which accepts the political economy structures in Angola, and gives limited attention to global structures and civil society. The thesis offers an alternative analysis, which illustrates how OfD is masking a neo-liberal development approach by incorporating Norwegian business interests and development goals in the same programme.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Afrika sake het tradisioneel nie 'n sentrale plek in Noorweë se amptelike buitelandse beleid beklee nie, en verhoudings met die westelike deel van die Afrika-kontinent is beperk. Tydens die afgelope jare het olie-ryk lande, soos Angola, egter die fokus van Noorweegse strategiese belange geword. Angola is vandag 'n kern land binne Noorweë se mees prominente petroleum-verwante hulpverleningsprogram, Oil for Development (OfD). Hierdie tesis het ten doel om, deur middel van 'n kritiese politieke ekonomie ontleding, by te dra tot ’n beter begrip van Noorweë se rol in Angola deur die OfD. Spesifiek bevraagteken hierdie studie aan wie en watter strukture in Angola Noorweë hulp verleen. Dit sal gedoen word deur eerstens gebruik te maak van kritiese teorie om te demonstreer dat Noorweë se rol as 'n tradisionele middelmoondheid – waardeur Noorweë poog om 'n altruïstiese persepsie van die staat uit te dra – onderskryf word deur 'n dieper nasionale selfbelang. Tweedens sal hierdie studie die teoretiese begronding van OfD bevraagteken, en derdens poog om te identifiseer wie deur die OfD program ondersteun word. Laastens sal die tesis bevraagteken of Noorweë volhoubare ontwikkeling in Angola bevorder, en eerder bydra tot die instandhouding van die status quo, waaruit Noorweë as 'n middelmoondheid voordeel trek. Die studie sal illustreer dat Noorweë, as ‘n middelmoondheid, nie die kapasiteit of die nasionale selfbelang het om fundamentele verandering in Angola te weeg te bring nie. Norweë se ondersteuning van die ‘good governance’ agenda, en oplossings wat deur die sogenaamde ‘hulpbronvloek’ tesis aangebied word, spreek die simptome van Angola se onder-ontwikkeldheid aan, eerder as die kernoorsake. OfD funksioneer op grond van ‘n staat-sentriese benadering, wat die politieke ekonomiese strukture in Angola aanvaar, en beperkte aandag aan globale strukture en die burgerlike samelewing gee. Hierdie tesis bied ‘n alternatiewe analise, wat wys hoe OfD eintlik ‘n neoliberale ontwikkelingsbenadering volg wat Noorweegse besigheids- en ontwikkelingsdoelwitte in dieselfde program inkorporeer.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis focuses on Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in Angola and on constraints encountered by investors. It discusses the new Investment Law, resulting from a comprehensive law reform in 2003, as well as investment incentives destined to attract FDI into the territory, furthermore: the legal definitions of FDI and of &ldquoInvestor&rdquo
the Angolan private international law
the main constraints (investment barriers) encountered by investors, after and before entering the Angolan territory
the legal protection afforded to investors, and some examples of FDI and their implications in Angola.
The author also analyses investment and intra-trade within the Sub-Saharan region, Angola under modes 3 and 4 of GATS, and other aspects of foreign (as well as private) investment, including on what has been done and what should still be achieved under the SADC Trade, Finance and Investment Protocol from 2005 onwards. This analysis, it is hoped, will contribute to the better understanding of the implications and benefits of FDI in Angola, considering the recent increase of inflows of FDI, as well, as to what extent and how the Government should continue to control and direct, as well as encourage FDI. To conclude, the impact (positive -negative) of FDI in the Angolan society, economy and for the environment will be discussed. Together with the chapters describing the legal framework for FDI, these parts are intended to provide a better insight into the legal, economic and social background for investing and for doing business in Angola, and what type of protection investors can expect from the country, whilst information and academic materials on this subject matter continue to be scarce and difficult to access.

Orientação: Eduardo Moraes Sarmento ; co-orientação: José Paulo OliveiraA produção e distribuição da riqueza em Angola no período de 2002 à 2017 é o tema central da nossa dissertação. A importância do estudo do presente problema está no facto de reconhecermos ser indispensável e prioritário falar da produção e distribuição da riqueza em Angola por ser uma região do continente Africano em que os seus dados relativos aos indicadores do desenvolvimento económico e social apresentam-se como menos esperados; baixo índice das exportações de produtos não petrolíferos e de serviços. O crescimento económico passa pela produção de bens e serviços que irão gerar riqueza. Esta riqueza deverá ser distribuída de forma a garantir a satisfação das necessidades essenciais das populações e para o investimento de formas a levar o país a atingir o estágio do desenvolvimento. Achamos também importante abordar este tema porque guarda consigo o cerne da questão da ciência económica que é estudar a produção, distribuição, o consumo de bens e serviços e a repartição de rendimentos, bem como também promover a auto-sustentabilidade. Por meio da pesquisa qualitativa, pretendemos com este estudo compreender o processo de produção e distribuição da riqueza em Angola, principais problemas e propor possíveis medidas que possam levar o país a tomar melhores vias para a produção e distribuição da riqueza. Pretendemos de igual modo contribuir com a nossa investigação para servir de bases de apoio para futuros estudos e concomitantemente servir de apoio aos gestores públicos na topada de decisão para a resolução dos problemas que dificultam o crescimento e o desenvolvimento do país. As questões para as quais pretendemos encontrar respostas são: Quais as lições que a teoria económica nos permite retirar para o aproveitamento das potencialidades económicas de Angola? Como melhorar o processo de produção da riqueza em Angola sabendo de antemão que Angola é um país de inúmeros recursos naturais? Que medidas poderão ser implementadas para o desenvolvimento do país? O posicionamento de Angola em relação ao índice de desenvolvimento humano - IDH? Em jeito de conclusão pensamos que a produtividade depende, no geral e independentemente das escolas e teorias económicas, da intensidade de capital afecto à produção, qualidade dos lideres e dos técnicos das empresas, ritmo de introdução de inovações nos produtos e nos processos tecnológicos de produção, o enquadramento macroeconómico, legislativo e social, a criação de incubadoras de empresas nas Universidades, criação de um gabinete de aproveitamento de quadros, a desburocratização, e a criação de uma via acessível de concessão de crédito para a promoção do empreendedorismo. Já a erradicação da pobreza e das assimetrias na distribuição da riqueza, acreditamos que para o caso de Angola dependem em grande percentagem da vontade política, do sentido de missão e patriotismo dos gestores públicos e da formação/capacitação dos mesmos.
The production and distribution of wealth in Angola from 2002 to 2017 is the central theme of our dissertation. In this study we recognize that it is indispensable and priority to speak about production and distribution of wealth in Angola because it is a region of African continent where its data related to indicators of economic and social development are less expected; exports of non-oil products and services. Economic growth involves the production of goods and services that will generate wealth. This wealth should be distributed in a way that ensures the satisfaction of the essential needs of the populations and for the investment of ways to lead the country to reach the stage of development. We also find it important to address this issue because it has at its heart the question of economic science, which is to study the production, distribution, consumption of goods and services and the distribution of income, as well as to promote self-sustainability. Through qualitative research, we intend with this study to understand the process of production and distribution of wealth in Angola, its main problems and propose possible measures that may lead the country to take better routes for the production and distribution of wealth. We also intend to contribute to our research to serve as a basis for future studies and, at the same time, to support public managers in the decision-making process for solving the problems that are hindering the country's growth and development. The questions we want to find answers are: What lessons do economic theory allow us to take advantage of Angola's economic potential? How to improve the process of wealth production in Angola knowing in advance that Angola is a country of innumerable natural resources? What measures can be implemented for the development of the country? The position of Angola in relation to the Human Development Index - HDI? In conclusion we believe that productivity depends, in general and independently of schools and economic theories, on the intensity of production capital, the quality of the leaders and technicians of the companies, the pace of introducing innovations in the products and the technological processes of macroeconomic, legislative and social framework, the creation of business incubators in universities, the creation of an office for the use of workforce, the reduction of bureaucracy, and the creation of an affordable way of granting credit for the promotion of entrepreneurship. As for the eradication of poverty and asymmetries in the distribution of wealth, we believe that in the case of Angola, they depend to a great extent on the political will, the sense of mission and patriotism of public managers and their training / capacity.

Orientação: Lúcio Augusto Pimentel Lourenço ; co-orientação: Eduardo FernandesUma reforma fiscal é uma reforma do sistema fiscal de um determinado país, visando a mudança da estrutura legislativa e operativa de impostos, taxas e outras contribuições vigentes de modo a actualizar e modernizar o sistema tributário como forma de obtenção mais optimizada de receitas tributárias para satisfazer as necessidades públicas. A implementação de uma reforma fiscal tem variados aspectos e no caso de Angola implica transferências de recursos do sector privado para o público a fim de garantir a melhoria dos serviços básicos que se apresentam como necessidade públicas que devem ser satisfeitas e garantidas pelo Estado à sociedade, tais como por exemplo, as referentes à saúde, educação, segurança e saneamento básico e infraestruturas como estradas, pontes e outras necessárias ao desenvolvimento económico, social e cultural do país. Angola tem vindo a enfrentar uma crise financeira, causada pela crise económica mundial e em particular pelas variações decrescentes do preço do petróleo nos mercados internacionais nos últimos anos. Sabendo nós que o orçamento do estado Angolano na parte relativa às receitas tem no petróleo o valor mais elevado, representado em média e em geral, cerca de 80% do seu rendimento, fácil se torna concluir e conhecer as dificuldades que o governo Angolano tem sentido para conseguir realizar a cobrança de receitas para fazer despesas públicas necessárias ao melhor bem-estar das populações e ao desenvolvimento do país Esta dependência económica do petróleo em termos de receitas públicas, obrigou o executivo angolano a criar estratégias para diversificar a economia e diminuir o impacto que a queda do preço do petróleo tem tido na sua economia tentando amenizar a crise financeira. Neste processo de diversificação foram elaborados os estudos estratégicos designados por Linhas Gerais do Executivo para a Reforma Tributária em 2009, que deu início à materialização da reforma de todo o sistema fiscal, publicado pelo Decreto Presidencial n,º 50/2011, que é o principal documento do programa do Executivo Angolano neste domínio. O processo de Reforma Tributária está a ser realizado por um programa autónomo - PERT (Projecto do Executivo para a Reforma Tributária), publicado pelo Decreto Presidencial n.º 155/2010, Série – N.º 141, de 28 de Julho, em que foram reformulados e actualizados no último trimestre de 2014 a Legislação Estruturante do Sistema Fiscal Angolano. O PERT está a ser implemento em duas fases, em que poderá se estender num período de 5 anos, que é o tempo previsto para a sua implementação. Artigo 2º do Decreto Presidencial 155/10. A Reforma Tributaria em curso, engloba o Sistema Fiscal e Aduaneiro, como Administração da Justiça Tributária. Foram recentemente publicados no diário da República novos Códigos Tributários dos quais citaremos os principais: Código do Imposto Industrial (aprovado pela Lei n.º 19/14, de 22 de Outubro); Código do Imposto sobre os Rendimentos do Trabalho (aprovado pela Lei n.º 18/14, de 22 de Outubro); Código do Imposto sobre a Aplicação de Capitais (aprovado pelo Decreto Legislativo Presidencial n.º 2/14, de 20 de Outubro); Código do Imposto do Selo (aprovado pelo Decreto Legislativo Presidencial n.º 3/14, de 21 de Outubro).
A tax reform is a reform of the tax system of a particular country, aiming to change the legislative and operational structure of taxes, taxes and other current contributions in order to update and modernize the tax system as a way to obtain more optimized tax revenues to satisfy needs. The implementation of a tax reform has several aspects and in the case of Angola implies transfers of resources from the private sector to the public in order to guarantee the improvement of basic services that are presented as public needs that must be satisfied and guaranteed by the State to society, such as health, education, safety and basic sanitation and infrastructures such as roads, bridges and others necessary for the economic, social and cultural development of the country. Angola has been facing a financial crisis, caused by the global economic crisis and in particular by the decreasing decreases in the price of oil in international markets in recent years. Knowing that the budget of the Angolan state in the part concerning revenues has in petroleum the highest value, represented in average and in general, about 80% of its income, easy becomes conclude and know the difficulties that the Angolan government has felt to achieve the collection of revenues to make public expenditures necessary for the best well-being of the populations and the development of the country This economic dependence on oil in terms of public revenues has forced the Angolan government to create strategies to diversify the economy and reduce the impact that the fall in oil prices has had on its economy trying to soften the financial crisis. In this process of diversification, the strategic studies designated by the Executive Lines for Tax Reform in 2009 were prepared, which initiated the reform of the entire fiscal system, published by Presidential Decree Nº. 50/2011, which is the main document of the Angolan Executive's program in this area. The Tax Reform process is being carried out by an autonomous program - PERT (Executive Project for Tax Reform), published by Presidential Decree Nº. 155/2010, Series – Nº. 141, of July 28, in which the Structural Legislation of the Angolan Tax System was reformulated and updated in the last quarter of 2014. PERT is being implemented in two phases, which can be extended over a period of 5 years, which is the time for implementation. Article 2 of Presidential Decree 155/10. The ongoing Tax Reform encompasses the Tax and Customs System, as Tax Administration. New Tax Codes were recently published in the Diário da República, of which we will cite the main ones: Industrial Tax Code (approved by Law no. 19/14, of 22 October); Income Tax Code (approved by Law no. 18/14, of 22 October); Capital Taxation Code (approved by Presidential Legislative Decree Nº. 2/14 of October 20); Seal Tax Code (approved by Presidential Legislative Decree 3/14 of October 21).

A forte redução do preço do petróleo no mercado internacional a partir de 2014 e a dependência da economia Angolana na exportação desta commodity expôs-nos a uma forte recessão económica nos últimos anos. Este contexto gerou um cenário desafiante para que autoridades e agentes económicos marquem um percurso distinto do habitual, diversificando a economia.
Apesar das recentes melhorias no preço desta commodity, o empreendedorismo assume-se como solução ideal para o desenvolvimento sustentável da economia Angolana, para o aumento da oferta de bens e serviços ao mercado interno e quiçá externo, para o aumento do emprego e da receita fiscal não petrolífera e até para a formação de defesas para futuras oscilações.
É comummente aceite que o empreendedorismo provém de iniciativas maioritariamente privadas para implementar novos negócios, para a inserção de mudanças em processos já existentes ou ainda para a inovação organizacional numa empresa. O estado deve criar incentivos, promover condições estruturais e um bom ambiente de negócios para que este fenómeno possa desenvolver.
O empresariado Angolano era até recentemente, tipicamente comercial, a produção nacional não era atrativa nem expressiva no PIB Angolano, expondo a economia nacional a alterações significativas por alterações de preços da principal commodity exportada, nos mercados internacionais.
O objetivo geral da presente dissertação é a análise da atividade empreendedora global, em África e em Angola em particular, sua tendência, influência e o papel do estado na criação de um ambiente de negócios favorável. Para alcançar estes objetivos, delinearam-se os seguintes objetivos específicos: (i) estudo do empreendedorismo, histórico, visão global atual sobre o tema, sua perspetiva atual em África e em Angola; (ii) verificação da correlação entre empreendedorismo, ambiente de negócios e diversificação económica; (iii) avaliação global da implementação do Programa Angola Investe. Para alcançar estes objetivos foi desenvolvido um modelo conceitual que examina as variáveis que explicam o aparecimento do empreendedorismo e sua dinâmica atual, assim como, na apresentação de um estudo empírico desenvolvido com recurso à recolha de dados por inquérito.The strong reduction on the oil price in the international market after 2014 and the dependence of the Angolan economy on the export of this commodity has exposed us to a strong economic recession in recent years. This context has created a challenging scenario for authorities and economic agents to take a different course than usual, diversifying the economy. In this context, entrepreneurship is an ideal solution for the sustainable development of the Angolan economy, to increase the supply of goods and services in the domestic market and perhaps for the external market, to increase of employment, to increase the non-oil fiscal revenue and even for the formation of defenses for future oscillations of the price of this commodity. It is commonly accepted that entrepreneurship comes from mostly private initiatives to implement new business, to insert changes in existing processes or even to organizational innovation in companies. The government must create incentives and promote structural conditions and a good business environment to develop this phenomenon. Angolan entrepreneurship was until recently, typically commercial, internal production was neither attractive nor expressive in Angolan GDP, exposing the national economy to significant changes due to price changes of the main commodity exported in international markets. The general objetive of this dissertation is the analysis of the global entrepreneurial activity, in Africa and in Angola in particular, its tendency, influence and the role of the state in the creation of a favorable business environment. In order to achieve these objectives, most specific were outlined: (i) study of entrepreneurship, history, real global vision on the theme, its real perspective in Africa and Angola; (ii) selection of the correlation between entrepreneurship, business environment and economic diversification; (iii) overall evaluation of the implementation of Angola Invest Program. To achieve these objectives, a conceptual model was developed that examines the variables that explain the appearance of entrepreneurship and its current dynamics as well as the presentation of an empirical study developed using data collection by questionnaire survey.

Full textAbstract:
A economia Angolana sofreu, nos últimos anos, o efeito da crise económico-financeira global iniciada em 2008, traduzindo-se numa redução do ritmo de crescimento da economia verificado até esta data. O sector petrolífero, tradicionalmente, alavanca da atividade económica, sofreu uma queda de produção devido, não só, às restrições e limitações de produção, bem como à queda na produção com a redução do preço do petróleo.
A energia desempenha um papel fundamental no desenvolvimento económico e social de Angola, mas dada a excessiva dependência do preço do petróleo ao nível internacional e da sua ineficiência produtiva, aliada às mudanças nas políticas ambientais e energéticas globais, importa que se faça uma reflexão sobre a evolução do sector energético do país, equacionado um modelo diferente de desenvolvimento económico, de diversificação da economia e da exploração de outras fontes de energia, de entre as quais se destacam os biocombustíveis. As energias renováveis surgem como uma alternativa energética segura, saudável, amiga do ambiente e economicamente viável, que nos aproxima dos países desenvolvidos.
Os biocombustíveis tornaram-se populares e começaram a ser vistos como uma alternativa válida aos combustíveis fósseis como o petróleo, em determinados setores, por possuírem um custo menor de produção, por provocarem menor impacto à natureza, já que são biodegradáveis, por poderem ser comercializado a um custo menor, bem como por serem resultantes de fontes renováveis
Os resultados da investigção evidenciam que as melhores alternativas energéticas para reduzir a dependência do petróleo são, segundo os inquiridos, a energia solar, o Biodiesel, a energia hidráulica e o biotenol. Na avaliação da atratividade e do potencial dos biocombustíveis a melhor alternativa recai no Biotenol, seguindo-se o Biodiesel.The Angolan economy has suffered in recent years the effect of the global economic and financial crisis that began in 2008, translating into a reduction of the pace of growth of the economy verified to date. Traditionally, the oil sector has leapfrogged economic activity, which has suffered a fall in production, due not only to production constraints and limitations, but also to a drop in production with a reduction in the price of oil. Energy plays a key role in the economic and social development of Angola, but given the excessive dependence on the international price of oil and its inefficiency of production, coupled with changes in global environmental and energy policies, it is important to reflect on the development of the country's energy sector, with a different model of economic development, diversification of the economy and exploitation of other energy sources, including biofuels. Renewable energy emerges as a safe, healthy, environmentally friendly and economically viable energy alternative that brings us closer to developed countries. Biofuels became popular and began to be seen as a valid alternative to fossil fuels, such as petroleum, in certain sectors, because they have a lower cost of production, because they have less impact on nature, since they are biodegradable because they can be commercialized at a lower cost, as well as being derived from renewable sources. The results of the research show that the best energy alternatives to reduce dependence on oil are, according to the respondents, solar energy, biodiesel, hydroelectric power and biotenol. In the evaluation of the attractiveness and potential of biofuels the best alternative lies in Biotenol, followed by Biodiesel.

Full textAbstract:
It is the scope of this project to analyse how the past and current economic conjuncture in Angola, mainly driven and characterized by the Dedollarization process that is undergoing, has been impacting the Angolan Baking Sector, one of the biggest pillars of the Angolan economic activity.
Given the known data constraints, this project only focused on the analysis of the Dedollarization impact in one of Angola’s biggest banks: Banco de Fomento de Angola.
The statistical approach consisted on two multi-factor regression models to analyse the impact on two different Key Performance Indicators of the bank: Return on Equity and Regulated Solvency Ratio.
Although it was complicated to derive statistical significance for the two models, mainly due to a reduced number of observations and the quality of the model, the results converged to what a financial economics analysis led later on the final part of the project.
The final remarks regarding the role of Dedollarization in the Banking sector, with a focus on BFA, are extremely eye-opening. Unlike what was thought à priori, the overall impact on BFA’s results is positive, mainly in the back of the high inflation environment that is being felt in Angola, which increases the spread of the assets’ returns in national currency versus in foreign currency on the bank’s balance sheet.

JEL Classification System: G21, O17, O55, P46, Z13A kixikila é conhecida em Angola por grande parte da população. É uma associação de poupança e crédito rotativo, em inglês Rotating Saving and Credit Association, ROSCA é o acrónimo pelo qual é referida na literatura económica. É utilizada num contexto informal em diversos países e continentes. É feita pelas pessoas, através da livre associação, pela criação de grupos de auto-ajuda financeira. Contribui para processos de combate à pobreza, de entreajuda e de desenvolvimento local, numa lógica “de baixo para cima”, centrados nas pessoas, reforçando a comunidade e promovendo o empowerment das pessoas. Este trabalho, baseado num contexto angolano, tem como relação-chave a kixikila e o desenvolvimento. Iniciamos o trabalho por um enquadramento teórico, relacionando os três conceitos principais: desenvolvimento, ROSCA e empowerment, além de outros conceitos acessórios. Posteriormente realizamos um estudo de caso na cidade do Uíge, capital da província do Uíge, no norte de Angola. Metodologicamente integramos duas abordagens, uma análise quantitativa e uma mais qualitativa, procurando aprofundar e tornar visíveis especificidades dos actores sociais. Foram realizadas entrevistas semi-estruturadas a actores de kixikila, como informadores privilegiados, e a outros informadores especializados. O estudo realizado permitiu-nos concluir que a kixikila poderá impulsionar alterações significativas na vida das pessoas, mudanças para consumo de bens mais duradouros, aumento do rendimento, do emprego e do investimento, ou seja, o desenvolvimento. Isto, num contexto informal, com base na dimensão comunitária e associativa, reforçando formas de solidariedade, a partir de respostas criativas, aumentando a rede social e o capital social das pessoas.
Kixikila is known in Angola by a big part of the population. It’s a Rotating Saving and Credit Association, the acronym ROSCA in economic literature. In an informal context it’s used by many people in several countries and continents. It’s made by people, through free association in groups, who create financial self-help groups. Contributes to poverty reduction, mutual aid and local development processes, with a bottom-up approach, people-centered, enhancing the community and the people empowerment. This work in Angolan context had an essential link between kixikila and development. We started this work with a theoretical framework, relating the three main concepts: development, ROSCA and empowerment, as well as other secondary concepts. Afterward we carry through a case study in Uíge city, the capital of the Uíge Province, north of Angola. Methodologically we integrate two approaches - a quantitative and a qualitative analysis - looking for to extend and to become more visible the specificities of the social actors. We carried semi-structuralized interviews with the actors, as privileged informers, and to others as specialized informers. The case study allowed us to conclude that kixikila is able to stimulate significant changes in people life’s, by changing the consumption to more long-lasting goods, by increasing the income, employment and investment, that is the development. In an informal context, based in the community and associative life, strengthening solidarity forms, with creative answers, increasing the social network and social capital of people.
