Abstract:
Corporate governance and auditor independence can be viewed as two sides of a coin. They are thus intertwined to a significant extent, with one (auditing) lending support to the other (corporate governance). Corporate governance is a topical issue worldwide, while auditor independence is a topic that has attracted considerable interest from research scholars over a period spanning many decades to-date. Various aspects of auditor independence have been studied yielding interesting outcomes. However, there has not been a significant amount of interest in researching this topic with regard to small economies such as that of Botswana, to establish if there are any unique auditor independence issues that arise as a result of that phenomenon. This study attempts to fill that void and has yielded results that call for further inquiry to establish if indeed there are no factors emanating from the size of the economy or the size of the population of a country that impact auditor independence, and thus compromise corporate governance. The study is based on Botswana, but it is presented here that its outcomes would most likely apply to other small economies with similar characteristics to those of Botswana.

Abstract:
Purpose Foreign direct investment (FDI) from developing economies has increased sharply since the beginning of the 2000s. While most investment flows correspond to firms from large economies, small developing economies have also witnessed the increase of outward investment flows from their domestic companies. The literature on outward FDI (OFDI) from developing economies has focused mainly on large emerging countries, such as China and India. In the case of small developing economies, for which there is scant empirical evidence, firms willing to invest abroad face a different business environment with several barriers such as a small domestic market to achieve economies of scale and a limited supply of specialised resources. In this setting, the purpose of this paper is to examine firm-level strategies and the home-country effects in a small developing economy. Design/methodology/approach A research case study is conducted through a representative sample of Costa-Rican firms investing abroad. Costa Rica makes a strong case since it stands out among small developing economies investing abroad in terms of both the number of operations and the amount of OFDI. Findings The main findings are: outward investment is not only for large and mature firms, as medium and small-sized firms are actively investing abroad; most firms pursue a market-seeking strategy; the benefits for the firm and the home country are stronger when companies follow a clear outward investment strategy; and there is a positive relationship between international trade and OFDI. Originality/value This paper provides novel empirical evidence to better understand an emerging trend in OFDI: in an increasingly integrated world economy, even SMEs from small developing economies are compelled to internationalise their operations in order to compete successfully.

Abstract:

 

At the heart of this study is the topic of small economies in the Multilateral Trade System (MTS). The study examines the World Trade Organisation&rsquo
s (WTO) legal framework and policy objectives in order to develop a comprehensive definition of small economies as a group of WTO members with specific needs. Particular attention is given to the determination of the specific characteristics of small economies, as well as the issues and constraints they are facing in the MTS. The study explores solutions proposed in order to tackle the constraints to the effective integration of small economies in the MTS, with specific reference to the policy reasoning of small economies. More importantly, the study explores the impact of the size factor, which is certainly not only a burden on the growth and development perspectives of the considered entity, but which may also become an advantage and promotes the trade performance of a small economy. Hypotheses are then made relating to the relevance of the economic and political environments in the determination of a successful (or not) integration, and participation, of a small economy in the MTS. A crucial argument developed is that the differences observed between countries sharing similar characteristics of smallness, vulnerability and remoteness/landlockedness, illustrates the fact that what ultimately matters is the interplay of factors related to the economic and political environments, the effect of which is to promote or constrain (depending on the case) successful integration of the small economy in the MTS.

Abstract:
In chapter 1, we introduce mechanism and present results of an integrated investment appraisal of an onshore wind farm for electricity generation in Cape-Verde that is owned and operated by a private investor. From the perspective of the electric utility and the economy, the results of such an ex-ante financial and economic appraisal of wind electricity generation depends critically on one’s view of the expected long-term level of future fossil fuel prices, negotiations of the power purchase agreement (PPA) price and wind capacity factor. In Chapter 2, we investigate the impacts of wind and solar renewable power sources on both electricity generation and planning by employing and applying a cost minimization model in Cyprus. The cost minimization model demonstrates that the use of wind alone and mix of wind and solar power in an electricity generation mix reduces the overall cost of the system. Due to high cost of electricity generation from fuel oil in Cyprus, we conclude that shift toward wind and solar mix of energy sources in Cyprus will have significant impact by means of cost reduction. Therefore, integrating these renewables will essentially contribute to the welfare of Cypriot consumers alongside its environmental and health benefits associated in them. In Chapter 3, we study the impacts of implementing real-time electricity pricing (RTP) in the Cypriot electricity market with and without wind/solar capacities. We use a merit order stack approach to generation investment and operation decisions. Empirical results show that dynamic pricing will increase generation capacity utilization by means of reduction in equilibrium installed capacity reduction and increase in load factors of off-peak plants. These savings are larger at higher demand elasticities. The emissions from electricity generation will potentially increase resulting from increased energy consumption, however. Because wind (solar) availability comes mostly during low (high) demand hours when relatively cleaner (dirtier) plants operate in the system, we find that there is considerable potential for capital cost savings and emission savings from smart metering even with only a small consumer response and at moderate participation in the programme. At the current costs of solar, investing in wind alone will however yield higher bill savings.

Nasir, Harun. "International reserves in production small open economies." Thesis, University of Reading, 2017. http://centaur.reading.ac.uk/75401/.

Full text
Abstract:
Making three distinct contributions to the literature on international reserves for small open economies (SOEs), this thesis is composed of three main chapters. Chapters 1 and 2 contribute to the underlying theory of optimal international reserves, extending the Jeanne and Rancière (2011) endowment SOE model to a production economy, each using one of the most common technology specifications in Neoclassical growth theory. Chapter 3, then, examines empirically key aspects of reserve holdings as observed in a dataset of high and low middle income emerging market economies (EMEs) used in the calibration of the preceding theoretical chapters. Chapter 1 explores the effects of investment and production on optimal reserves in SOE EMEs and derives an optimal reserves-to-output formula in the case where capital is the sole factor of production as in the AK model of endogenous growth. We refer to this version as the one-factor production SOE AK model, or simply the AK model (of endogenous growth). This version implies increasing returns to scale (IRS) and is justified on the grounds of the ability of the AK model to generate endogenously, via the influence of policy – such as subsidies or taxes on investment – on capital accummulation, sustained long-run growth observed in the data. We find that the endogenous growth AK model with IRS implies a negative relationship between the optimal reserve-to-output ratio and capital-augmenting (in fact, here sole-factor) technological progress. Depending on the calibration of the productivity parameter, the model quantifies the optimal ratio of reserves to output at 1.74% for SOEs. Chapter 2 introduces labour, making the production function more general. More precisely, we switch to a conventional labour-augmenting Cobb-Douglas (CD) production function, which embodies alternative assumptions of constant returns to scale (CRS) overall – but with diminishing returns to scale (DRS) for each of the two factors, capital and labour – and convergence to a balanced growth path (BGP) in the long run. In turn, this version is justified on the grounds of being consistent with a long-run BGP in Neoclassical models of exogenous growth and with sustained per capita income growth in these models. The second chapter thus focuses on the effects of labour-augmenting productivity on the optimal reserves-to-output ratio in a production SOE. Moreover, the alternative modelling of the production function, IRS AK versus CRS CD, and the type of growth, endogenous versus exogenous, allows us to compare the analytical results in chapter 1 (AK model) with those in chapter 2 (the CD model). Similarly to the endogenous growth AK model, we find that in the exogenous growth CD model along the BGP labour-augmenting technological progress decreases the optimal reserves-to-output ratio. Depending on the calibration of the labour-augmenting productivity parameter, the CRS CD model quantifies the optimal ratio of reserves to output at 5.5% in the richer two-factor production SOE model. This roughly three times higher ratio of optimal reserve holdings to output arises from the difference in the specification of technology in the production functions. This ratio is still quite lower than the corresponding one derived in the endowment SOE model of Jeanne and Rancière (2011), 9.1%. The main reason for optimally maintaining a lower ratio of international reserves to output in a production SOE with investment and productive capital relative to the endowment SOE benchmark is as follows. With the capital stock now accumulated via investment and potentially used as a pledge to external creditors in obtaining borrowing and therefore insuring better against sudden stops, the optimal reserve-to-output ratio is much lower relative to an otherwise similar endowment economy in the AK model. As depreciation depletes the existing capital stock, opposite to investment, the reversal of the relationship is not surprising in both the AK and CD models. Whereas the AK model can generate endogenously, via policy, persistent capital accummulation leading to sustained long-run growth, adding labour as a second factor in a CD production function, consistent with a long-run BGP in Neoclassical models of exogenous growth and with sustained per capita income growth, results in a roughly mid-point optimal reserve-to-output ratio of 5.5%. Chapter 3, finally, takes a complementary, statistical approach and examines the key theoretically derived determinants of international reserves relative to output together with the most common empirically motivated determinants suggested in the literature as ‘control variables’ in a dataset of 26 high and low middle income economies. For this purpose, we initially estimate a pooled OLS benchmark and a panel data fixed effect model to analyse the relative importance of such empirically measured determinants of real-world reserve holdings as well as possible country specificities. We then use quantile regression techniques to examine the variation in these determinants across the reserve holdings distribution in our sample. We examine the uniformity of coefficients by several quantile regressions and the overall models. Our quantile regression results suggest that there is substantial variation in middle income countries in terms of the reserve holdings distribution. Our findings from inter-quantile regressions show that there are statistically significant differences in share of imports in GDP, investment share of GDP, and short term external debt to GDP.

Abstract:
Until recently, proofs establishing the existence of gains from trade have used the assumption that the government can alter the distribution of income by a set of lump sum transfers , i.e ., the government has at its disposal a set of household specific transfer instruments. However, recent work has been devoted to situations where these transfer instruments are inadmissible. Dixit and Norman (1980: 79-80) demonstrate that a government that can alter all domestic commodity taxes can ensure that no individual is made worse of by moving from autarky to free trade. It turns out, however, that this Dixit and Norman proof of the gains from trade shows only that the autarky equilibrium can be replicated under free trade and not that positive gains will occur. One of the purposes of this thesis is to investigate the problem of the gains from trade when a variety of tax and transfer instruments are available. It is fruitful to regard the problem of the gains from trade as a policy reform question: can the government in the home country find a small (differential) perturbation in the country's initial international trade prohibitive tariffs which, accompanied with a suitable (differential) perturbation in the country's commodity tax structure, results in a strict Pareto improvement? In order to answer the question, a model for the production side of an economy is presented in Chapter 2. It is established that, under some very weak conditions, there are (differential) tariff perturbations that improve the country's initial net balance of trade. In Chapter 4, it is shown that these productivity gains can be distributed to the consumers in the economy in a strict Pareto improving way by suitably adjusting the country's initial commodity tax rates. The principal tool for establishing these results is a duality theorem: Motzkin's Theorem. Chapter 3 develops two approximative formulae for measuring the productivity gain accruing from a change of tariffs. Some examples of strict Pareto improving perturbations in commodity taxes and tariffs are given in Chapter 7. These include proportional and uniform reductions of tariffs as well as a change toward uniformity in the country's initial tariff structure. Next, the government is assumed to be able to adjust only the home country's initial vectors of tariffs and lump sum transfers but not the vector of commodity taxes. Conditions for strict Pareto improving tariff and transfer perturbations to exist are developed. In Chapter 9 it is shown that neither the existence of strict gains from trade under commodity taxation or under lump sum compensation necessarily implies the other. Examples of strict Pareto improving changes in tariffs, taxes and transfers are given in Chapter 10. These include proportional reductions of tariffs and/or taxes and movements toward uniformity in the tax rates for domestic and tradable commodities. The role of normality of commodities in consumption in policy recommendation results is also discussed. Chapter 11 develops sufficient conditions for a perturbation in the home country's tax structure, which causes international trade, to be strict Pareto improving. In Chapter 12 the goal of the government is to choose a policy that reduces the level of economic inequality associated with the initial observed equilibrium in the economy. It is shown that inequality reducing perturbations in commodity taxes and tariffs exist, if the preferences and initial commodity endowments of the consumers satisfy certain conditions.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The worst recession that affected the world's economy since the Great Depression has had an even more devastating effect on the aviation industry. Following such a crisis, one of the most significant challenges awaiting airlines worldwide in the coming decade is the financing of their enormous fleet replacement and expansion activities. And this demands a tremendous effort, given that airline earnings are cyclical and, industry returns on capital investments have traditionally been poor. As international markets develop, especially in the emerging economies, there is a need for a constant search for new sources and methods to finance and acquire new equipment. Aircraft financiers and investors have always been wary to invest in developing countries. Aircraft are highly movable assets that can travel to various jurisdictions and this faculty has always posed a threat on lessors and owners' property interest, the more so, in small and emerging countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America. The challenges are obvious and seem insurmountable. Aircraft financing legal structures and practices that have worked in developed countries may be structured to apply to the benefit of States of small emerging economies. The point has been made for several years now in numerous international conferences that there is a lacuna in this area. This thesis seeks to address some of the legal aspects of aircraft financing generally and, in these small and emerging economies.
RESUME La pire des récessions qu'ait connu le monde depuis la grande dépression des années trente a eu un effet encore plus dévastatrice sur l'industrie aéronautique. Après une crise de cette ampleur, le défi de taille auquel doivent faire face les compagnies aériennes de par le monde dans la prochaine décennie est le financement du renouvellement et de l'expansion de leur flotte d'aéronefs. Et ceci demande un effort colossal, vu la nature aléatoire et incertaine des recettes des compagnies aériennes. Aussi, le retour sur les investissements capitaux ont été traditionnellement bien moindres. En ligne avec le développement continuel des marchés internationaux, particulièrement dans les pays émergents, il y a un besoin pour une recherche constante de nouvelles sources et de nouveaux modes de financement et d'acquisition d'aéronefs. Les investisseurs ont été très réticents à investir dans les pays en développement. Les avions sont des biens mobiliers et ceux-ci peuvent donc aisément passer d'une juridiction à l'autre. Ce caractère particulier a constamment posé une menace aux droits de propriété des bailleurs et propriétaires de l'avion, et c'est encore plus prononcé dans des pays émergents en Afrique, Asie ou Amérique Latine. Les défis sont évidents et apparaissent insurmontables. Des structures légales de financement d'aéronefs et des pratiques qui ont fait leurs preuves dans les pays développés peuvent être remodelées pour le bénéfice des petits états émergents. C'est un point qui a été constamment débattu dans des conférences internationales et il y a un manquement dans ce domaine. Cette présente thèse est une tentative d'adresser quelques uns des aspects légaux relatif au financement d'aéronefs en général, et dans ces pays émergents.

Abstract:
A high level of a country’s foreign trade is related to the growth of foreign earnings, to the acceleration of investments, to increase employment and contributes significantly to the growth of the country's economy. In this context, SMEs as one of the mile stones of the economy, foreign trade and economic growth are located in the leading roles. Especially SMEs sufficiently developed oppressed against strong opponents abroad, government policies or practices in trade restrictive policies are some of the reasons for this downside. SMEs that exports goods, or the infrastructure needed to produce goods for SMEs who import raw materials as well as the country's foreign trade policies and developments in the world economy is important. SMEs to follow the development, recognizing competitors, new markets, new products is very important in terms of growth both business and the countries. In this study, SMEs engaged in foreign trade in Sivas Province performing an application on in terms of both the business and government policy at the local level status will be examined. Data will be obtained on issues such as ultimately foreign trade potential of existing SMEs while doing foreign trade problems they face, strengths and weaknesses, market policies at national and international levels, the opinions about the state's foreign trade policy. The results obtained from the data on SMEs engaged in foreign trade by making general inferences about the data obtained on a micro scale, will allow making inferences on the macro scale.

Abstract:
This paper aims to study the determinants of innovation propensity of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in five small non-oil exporting Former Soviet Union countries. Empirical analysis is based on the data from the fifth wave of the Business Environment and Enterprise Performance Survey (BEEPS). Innovation of SMEs is measured by five innovation practices: innovation in goods services, process, organization, marketing and R&D spending. For each aspect of innovation bivariate regression analysis is applied. Estimation results shows that experience of managers has curvilinear effect on the innovation in SMEs. Foreign participation, export orientation and competitiveness in sectors are important for innovation.

Carrasco, Alex, and David Florián Hoyle. External Shocks and FX Intervention Policy in Emerging Economies. Inter-American Development Bank, August 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.18235/0003457.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper discusses the role of sterilized foreign exchange (FX) interventions as a monetary policy instrument for emerging market economies in response to external shocks. We develop a model for a commodity-exporting small open economy in which FX intervention is considered as a balance sheet policy induced by a financial friction in the form of an agency problem between banks and their creditors. The severity of banks agency problem depends directly on a bank-level measure of currency mismatch. Endogenous deviations from the standard UIP condition arise at equilibrium. In this context, FX interventions moderate the response of financial and macroeconomic variables to external shocks by leaning against the wind with respect to real exchange rate pressures. Our quantitative results indicate that, conditional on external shocks, the FX intervention policy successfully reduces credit, investment, and output volatility, along with substantial welfare gains when compared to a free-floating exchange rate regime. Finally, we explore distinct generalizations of the model that eliminate the presence of endogenous UIP deviations. In those cases, FX intervention operations are considerably less effective for the aggregate equilibrium.

Full text
Abstract:
Like other Small Island Developing States (SIDS), Caribbean island economies have intrinsic characteristics that make them vulnerable to external shocks. The recent pandemic highlights the structural problems of small island economies. Due to their remote location and small size, islands lack economies of scale and rely on global supply chains, which are currently disrupted. Islands depend either on service-based economic activities like tourism, which are being affected during the current crisis, or on a single commodity, which makes them extremely vulnerable. Islands must rethink their approach to development, adopting one of sustainable development. The Sustainable Islands Platform aims to create a new approach that targets the needs of Caribbean islands and prescribes circular economy-inspired interventions in key areas such as sanitation, waste management, agriculture, fisheries, tourism, energy, transportation, and health. Traditional approaches have not proven successful in solving developing problems on SIDS. Therefore, a new concept that considers islands in a new way should be considered.
