  • 1 Executive Summary Mauritius Is an Upper Middle-Income Island Nation
    Executive Summary Mauritius is an upper middle-income island nation of 1.2 million people and one of the most competitive, stable, and successful economies in Africa, with a Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of USD 11.9 billion and per capita GDP of over USD 9,000. Mauritius’ small land area of only 2,040 square kilometers understates its importance to the Indian Ocean region as it controls an Exclusive Economic Zone of more than 2 million square kilometers, one of the largest in the world. Emerging from the British colonial period in 1968 with a monoculture economy based on sugar production, Mauritius has since successfully diversified its economy into manufacturing and services, with a vibrant export sector focused on textiles, apparel, and jewelry as well as a growing, modern, and well-regulated offshore financial sector. Recently, the government of Mauritius has focused its attention on opportunities in three areas: serving as a platform for investment into Africa, moving the country towards renewable sources of energy, and developing economic activity related to the country’s vast oceanic resources. Mauritius actively seeks investment and seeks to service investment in the region, having signed more than forty Double Taxation Avoidance Agreements and maintaining a legal and regulatory framework that keeps Mauritius highly-ranked on “ease of doing business” and good governance indices. 1. Openness To, and Restrictions Upon, Foreign Investment Attitude Toward FDI Mauritius actively seeks and prides itself on being open to foreign investment. According to the World Bank report “Investing Across Borders,” Mauritius has one of the world’s most open economies to foreign ownership and is one of the highest recipients of FDI per capita.

  • Liquidityframeworkandinterbank
    Central Bank of Oman Occasional Paper: 2019-1 Liquidity Management Framework and Interbank Overnight Interest Rate in Oman: An Empirical Investigation Amal Al Raisi, Sunil Kumar and Razan Al Humaidi* Abstract Oman’s overnight inter-bank rate generally follows the trends in federal fund rate due to currency peg with the US dollar and open capital account, albeit with some intermittent deviations. In our ARDL model, we find federal fund rate along with domestic liquidity conditions as drivers of the overnight inter-bank rate in Oman. Accordingly, intermittent deviations of Oman’s overnight inter-bank rate from the federal fund rate appears to have been caused by evolving domestic liquidity conditions and less than perfect arbitrage due to various prudential limits. Keywords: Overnight inter-bank rate, federal fund rate, monetary policy, liquidity conditions JEL Classification: E43, E52, E58 *Amal Al Raisi is a Manager, Sunil Kumar is an Economist, and Razan Al Humaidi is an Associate Research Analyst in Economic Research & Statistics Department of the Central Bank of Oman.

    R Basant Roi: Bank of Mauritius’ new headquarters Address by Mr R Basant Roi, Governor of the Bank of Mauritius, at the inauguration of the New Headquarters Building of the Bank of Mauritius, Port Louis, 18 December 2006. * * * Dr. The Hon. Navinchandra Ramgoolam, Prime Minister of the Republic of Mauritius Honourable Ramakrishna Sithanen, Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Finance and Economic Development His Lordship Mayor of Port Louis Hon. Judges Members of the Diplomatic Corps Fellow Bankers Ladies and Gentlemen Good Afternoon I am pleased to welcome you all to the inauguration of the New Headquarters Building of the Bank of Mauritius. I am privileged and honoured to perform this inaugural ceremony in your distinguished presence, Prime Minister, Sir – a ceremony that is similar to the one performed by the first Governor of the Bank, Mr. Aunauth Beejadhur, for the existing building in the presence of His Excellency, Sir John Shaw Rennie, Governor of Mauritius and late Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam, then Premier and Minister of Finance on 31st May 1967. One of the major constraints in the operation of the Bank when it was established way back in 1967 was insufficient office space. The offices of the Bank were located at various places in Port Louis. Security vault for notes and coins was located at the back of the Treasury building, Exchange Control at the entrance of the present Government Centre and Main Office at the Anglo Mauritius Building. In August 1968, a banking office was opened at the Treasury Building to accommodate the increasing volume of banking business. The existing Bank of Mauritius building at the corner of Sir William Newton St and Royal Road was designed by Messrs Victor Heal and Partners of London.

  • Monetary Policy in Iceland During the Nineties
    Monetary policy in Iceland during the nineties Már Gu∂⁄ mundsson and Yngvi Örn Kristinsson* Introduction Iceland is a small open economy with a natural resource based export sector. It has a population of 270,000 people and a GDP of around 1 US$ 7.3 billion (1996) or around 40% of that of Luxembourg and 2 ⁄2 times that of Malta,1 both small countries but with somewhat bigger populations than Iceland.2 Living standards are relatively high. GDP per capita in 1996 was US$ 25,400 at current PPPs, which was the fifth seat among OECD 1 countries. Exports of goods and services amount to just over ⁄3 of GDP. 3 More than ⁄4 of merchandise exports are fish products and an additional 15% are the products of two metal smelters using Iceland’s ample energy sources. More than 90% of merchandise exports and 65% of total exports are natural resource based, if agricultural products are included. External shocks and economic fluctuations have been bigger than in most OECD countries, with a relatively large asymmetric component. Inflation was, until recent years, much higher than in other OECD countries but unem- ployment lower. Exchange rate policy did play an important role in adjusting the economy to external shocks, with relatively good success on the real side of the economy but at the cost of high and variable inflation. A stability oriented policy has been pursued in recent years, with the important result that inflation has been below or at the level of that among trading partners since 1994. This paper is on monetary policy in Iceland during the 1990s.
