Abstract:

This thesis considers how fiscal and monetary policy should be conducted in resourcerich economies. It consists of three papers addressing: whether governments should spend, save or invest volatile oil income; the assets they should save in; and how monetary policy should respond. The first, “Eight principles for managing resource wealth”, shows that capital-scarce countries should save relatively less against oil price volatility, and invest more in domestic capital. They also should prepare for volatility in advance, and treat savings as a source of income rather than a temporary buffer. To

Abstract:

Emerging economies are largely influenced by their vulnerability to domestic and external shocks with the effect on economic prosperity usually more pronounced when driven by volatile factors. Given country specifics, macroeconomists in emerging economies implement policies to alleviate the impact of these disturbances on the economy, considering the ensuing implications of supply side constraints that may hamper the transmission and efficacy of monetary policy initiatives. This task is however compounded when the economy is highly dependent on resource exports. Therefore, central banks in suc

Abstract:

The resource ‘curse’ is premised on an inverse relationship between mineral wealth and economic growth. The declamation pertaining to the reasons for, and exceptions to, the resource ‘curse’ remains inconclusive. MNCs are cited amongst the reasons for the resource ‘curse’, particularly in developing economies. However, Africa (and the role of MNCs) remains underrepresented in resource ‘curse’ literature. In light of this, the study’s aim is to determine how MNCs in Mozambique’s gas sector could be considered a causal channel of the resource ‘curse’, as the contest for relatively untapped natur

Abstract:

Les questions relatives à la croissance économique et à ses déterminants demeurent une préoccupation centrale de toutes les économies, notamment celles riches en ressources naturelles. C’est dans ce cadre que nous nous intéressons dans cette thèse au modèle de croissance de l’Algérie, pays dont l’économie est largement dépendante des hydrocarbures qui constituent plus de 95 % de ces exportations et plus de la moitié de ces ressources budgétaires. L’embellie financière que l’Algérie a connue durant les quinze premières années de ce millénaire lui a permis de lancer trois grands programmes d'inv

Abstract:

This thesis looks into the relationship between natural resources and non-resource economic activity in resource-rich countries. This relationship has been investigated through the literature of the “resource curse” which was first noted by Sachs and Warner (1995) who show a significant negative relation between natural resource dependence and income growth. Despite the developing literature in that area, empirical tests suffered from endogeneity. In this thesis, I try to add more resilient identification strategies in order to assess the effect of resource abundance on the macro economy using

Previous studies tend to assume that all commodity price shocks are alike and advocate a “one size fit all” policy response by monetary authorities, either by means of contractionary monetary policy to alleviate inflationary pressures or doing nothing, since these shocks are believed to have insignificant economic impact.

La richesse naturelle est-elle un gage de prospérité ou se révèle-t-elle être une malédiction? Comment le pétrole a-t-il façonné l'évolution économique des pays producteurs ? Dans le prolongement de ces interrogations, l'objectif de cette thèse est de progresser dans la compréhension des mécanismes qui font que le pétrole est, pour les pays exportateurs, aussi souvent une malédiction qu'une bénédiction. Les travaux empiriques qui constituent notre thèse permettent ainsi de répondre à trois questions distinctes : (i) quelle est la contribution du pétrole en tant que ressource énergétique (ou so

Abstract:

The first chapter aims at investigating the factors that might reduce the Saudi Arabia’s dependence on Crude oil as the only source of income and therefore diversifying its source of revenue. The research will achieve this by constructing the first tailored diversification model of the Saudi Arabian Economy. The aim of second chapter is to ascertain the sectors that are either positively or negatively influenced or affected the most by trade liberalization or the openness of trade. Knowing this we provide more rationale in designing the Kingdom’s trade policies and one step forward to diversif

Abstract:

The literature focusing on the resource-curse commonly characterize oil-rich economies as weak and fragile. These literatures encourage diversification 'away' from oil in order to develop the economies, however, they often overlook the path for development. In contrast to this broad aim, this research bids to develop the economy 'based on' oil using Saudi Arabia as case study that can be valuable to similar resource-rich economies. The research seeks to understand how public policymaking can be used as a path to sustainable economy. It employs concepts of economic theory to design an optimal o

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 exp

Zambia and Nigeria have become increasingly important to China. Zambia’s copper and Nigeria’s oil reserves are some of the vital resources that are scarce and economically significant toward China’s global economic am

Abstract:

This dissertation presents a novel theoretical framework that conceptualises the existence of tension between multinational enterprises (MNEs) and local firms, in particular host-country government partners (HGPs), and its mediating mechanisms with regard to the realisation of spillovers from inward foreign direct investment (FDI) in emerging and developing economies. The contributions are twofold: firstly it provides a better understanding of the potential strategies used by local firms to get and maximise benefits they obtain from spillovers of inward FDI; secondly, it contributes to the ext

Abstract:

There is growing consensus that unless resource-rich developing countries improve their domestic governance systems, rising exploitation of mineral, oil and gas resources may result in long-term adverse developmental outcomes associated with the “resource curse”. Despite the consensus, reforms do not abound. This dissertation investigates the obstacles to such reforms, and the mechanisms and strategies that can possibly overcome these obstacles. I argue that two trapping mechanisms are binding these countries to a “weak governance curse”. One mechanism is the phenomenon of path dependence, wh
