  • Optimum Exchange Rate and Economic Growth in Sudan
    Munich Personal RePEc Archive Optimum Exchange rate and Economic Growth in Sudan Arabi, Khalafalla King Khalid University 2020 Online at https://mpra.ub.uni-muenchen.de/104128/ MPRA Paper No. 104128, posted 15 Nov 2020 21:44 UTC Optimum Exchange rate and Economic Growth in Sudan Khalafalla Ahmed Mohamed Arabi College of Business – King Khalid University [email protected] Abstract This paper targets the Sudanese pound's optimum exchange rate value against the US dollar. Threshold regression is the key method for evaluating a sample duration over the period 1960-2017 for four variables, which are the real GDP (Y), the exchange rate (X) as threshold variable, two non-threshold variables labor force, and investment, which serves as a proxy for capital stock. Results point to a positive sign of the threshold variable up to the value of 2456, then a negative one above that value. This means that the exchange rate can have a beneficial impact on economic growth up to that value. As postulated, the signs of the non- threshold variables are positive. Compared with investment, the influence of the labor force is greater, indicating the superiority of the labor- intensive principle. The threshold value is in the 2005 year, which corresponds to the best shape of Kaldor square with a growth rate of 6 percent, inflation rate of 8 percent, a budget deficit to GDP ratio of (-2) percent, and a balance of payment to GDP ratio of (-1). Human capital and technology modernization must have priority. Government initiatives should strive and make every effort to lift the value of the Sudanese pound (SDG) to the threshold, that can be fostered by the accumulation of gold reserves.

  • South Sudanese Pound Managed Under Floating Exchange Regime: Prospects and Challenges
    10 South Sudanese Pound Managed Under Floating Exchange Regime: Prospects and Challenges Andrew Ssemwanga Introduction South Sudan voted overwhelmingly for secession from Sudan and became a new independent African nation on 9 July 2011. South Sudan has already enacted key laws to ensure the smooth running of the country, e.g. Transitional Constitution, a Central Bank law and others. A managed float exchange rate regime to ensure macroeconomic stability has been adopted and a new currency in the name of the South Sudanese Pound (SSP) is already in circulation. South Sudan is faced with a lot of social and economic problems that include limited access to basic education, healthcare, food, water, high inflation, sovereign debt, low level of national revenue and others. Most of the problems have been exacerbated by suspending oil production during January 2012. The Government of South Sudan has come up with a number of measures to address the shortfall in oil revenue and also the over- dependence on oil revenue by establishing a Non-Oil Revenue Action Plan as well as instituting austerity measures that relate to Government expenditure. Basing on studies carried out by the IMF and World Bank as reported by Simwaka (2010), a number of Sub-Sahara African countries performed well in terms of GDP and exports for the period 2002 to 2008. These include Kenya and Nigeria which were using a managed float exchange regime for the whole period. However, their annual average percentage changes in consumer prices were rather high. Results from Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium 10- Post-Referendum Sudan- Ssemwanga.indd 183 08/06/2014 01:03:40 184 Post-Referendum Sudan: National and Regional Questions Model (DSGE) which were done by Vencatachellum (2007) show that for a median net oil exporting country, a doubling in the price of oil would increase its gross domestic product while a rate of inflation would increase and there would be an appreciation of exchange rate.

  • The Controversy of Exchange Rate Devaluation in Sudan: an Economy-Wide General Equilibrium Assessment
    Agricultural Economics Working Paper Series, Khartoum University. Working Paper No. 2 (2011) Agricultural Economics Working Paper Series The Controversy of Exchange Rate Devaluation in Sudan: An Economy-wide General Equilibrium Assessment Khalid H. A. Siddig Working Paper No. 2 (2011) Department of Agricultural Economics Faculty of Agriculture, Khartoum University 13314 Shambat, Khartoum North, Sudan 1 Agricultural Economics Working Paper Series, Khartoum University. Working Paper No. 2 (2011) The Controversy of Exchange Rate Devaluation in Sudan: An Economy-wide General Equilibrium Assessment Khalid H. A. Siddig1 Abstract The international Monitory Fund (IMF) has been working with Sudan since 1997 to implement macroeconomic reforms including a managed float of the exchange rate (EXR). The IMF sees the EXR flexibility as key to safeguard and rebuild foreign exchange reserves and essential to meet the international reserve target in Sudan. However, the authorities in Sudan are concerned that greater exchange rate flexibility could contribute to inflationary pressures. In addition, a review of literature focusing on the exchange rate policies in Sudan reflects huge ambiguity about its outcome. This calls for additional empirical investigations that provide economy wide assessments of the various possible scenarios that could be adopted in the Sudanese context. Accordingly, the current paper applies an economy-wide impact assessment tool to investigate the possible effects of devaluating the overvalued (according to the IMF, 2009) Sudanese pound. Namely, it uses a Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model together with its detailed database of Sudan to simulate the Sudanese pound to depreciate according to three different scenarios by 5%, 10%, and 15%. Results of the paper recommend that the additional flexibility in the Sudanese EXR regime suggested by the IMF should be carefully considered if that would lead the value of the Sudanese currency to be devalued.
