  • Prospects for a Monetary Union in the East Africa Community: Some Empirical Evidence
    Department of Economics and Finance Working Paper No. 18-04 , Guglielmo Maria Caporale, Hector Carcel Luis Gil-Alana Prospects for A Monetary Union in the East Africa Community: Some Empirical Evidence May 2018 Economics and Finance Working Paper Series Paper Working Finance and Economics http://www.brunel.ac.uk/economics PROSPECTS FOR A MONETARY UNION IN THE EAST AFRICA COMMUNITY: SOME EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE Guglielmo Maria Caporale Brunel University London Hector Carcel Bank of Lithuania Luis Gil-Alana University of Navarra May 2018 Abstract This paper examines G-PPP and business cycle synchronization in the East Africa Community with the aim of assessing the prospects for a monetary union. The univariate fractional integration analysis shows that the individual series exhibit unit roots and are highly persistent. The fractional bivariate cointegration tests (see Marinucci and Robinson, 2001) suggest that there exist bivariate fractional cointegrating relationships between the exchange rate of the Tanzanian shilling and those of the other EAC countries, and also between the exchange rates of the Rwandan franc, the Burundian franc and the Ugandan shilling. The FCVAR results (see Johansen and Nielsen, 2012) imply the existence of a single cointegrating relationship between the exchange rates of the EAC countries. On the whole, there is evidence in favour of G-PPP. In addition, there appears to be a high degree of business cycle synchronization between these economies. On both grounds, one can argue that a monetary union should be feasible.

  • Burundi / Enhanced Integrated Framework (EIF)
    Republic of Burundi / Enhanced Integrated Framework (EIF) Burundi Diagnostic Trade Integration Study (DTIS) Update Volume 1 – Main report July 2012 Acknowledgements At the request of the Government of Burundi, the World Bank took the leading role in the preparation of this DTIS Update. The core members of the team were: Ferdinand Bararuzunza (local networks and stakeholder consultations); Olivier Cadot (non-tariff measures); Antoine Coste (trade performance analysis, sectoral case studies); Charles Kunaka and Philippe Lambrecht (trade facilitation and logistics), and Smita Wagh (financial services). The task team leader of the report is Nora Dihel. Background papers and other inputs were also provided by Aurélien Beko (informal sector); Joseph Butoyi (horticultural sector survey); Matthew Harber (trade data analysis); Jean-Pascal Nganou and Calvin Zebaze Djiofack (NTBs); Kabemba Lusinde Wa Lusangi (investment climate and tourism), and Jumaine Hussein (coffee), Ian Mills (regional integration), Ana Margarida Fernandes and Ingo Borchert (data on Burundi’s services trade barriers). Moreover, the analysis in the report greatly benefited from very helpful comments and feedback provided by Paul Brenton, Hannah Messerli, Jacques Morisset, Jean- Pascal Nganou and Barbara Rippel, among others. The DTIS update was elaborated in close cooperation with counterparts in the Burundian government, including the EIF Coordinator Léonard Ntibagirirwa and Youssouf Kone at the Ministry of Trade and Industry, who prepared an evaluation of the implementation of the first Action Matrix, administered the regulatory survey on professional services and provided comments on the results of the DEC Survey on services barriers. The DTIS update team would also like to thank the numerous stakeholders from the public and private sectors who provided helpful insights during the team missions undertaken in 2011 and early 2012, the workshop on preliminary results organized in November 2011 and the validation workshop organized in July 2012 in Bujumbura.

  • SSHAP Cross Border Dynanics Burundi DRC Updated August 2019
    Social Science in Humanitarian Action Skeatlivesat20A www.socialscienceinaction.org Cross border dynamics: Burundi-DRC (updated August 2019) This brief summarises key considerations concerning cross-border dynamics between Burundi and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) in the context of the outbreak of Ebola in North Kivu and Ituri provinces. It is the third in a series of four briefs focusing on the at risk border areas between DRC and the four high priority neighbouring countries (Uganda, Rwanda and South Sudan).1 As of July 2019, there have been no cases of Ebola imported from the DRC into Burundi, although cross-border movement has been identified as a significant risk to transmission. This brief provides details about cross-border relations, the political and economic dynamics likely to influence them, and specific areas and actors most at risk. The brief is based on a rapid review of existing published and grey literature, previous ethnographic research in Burundi and informal discussions with in-country colleagues. The brief was developed by Jean-Benoît Falisse (University of Edinburgh), with support from Ingrid Gercama, Nadia Butler, Theresa Jones and Juliet Bedford (Anthrologica) and Oto-Asael Magerano, Louis Rivière, Shaka and Hugues Nkengurutse. Prior finalisation, it was reviewed by expert advisors from the University of Antwerp, University of Cambridge, Université Catholique de Louvain, University of Edinburgh, University of Gent, Université du Lac Tanganyika, Northwestern University, Institut de Recherche pour le Développement, and the UNICEF Country Office in Burundi. The brief is the responsibility of the Social Science in Humanitarian Action Platform (SSHAP). Key considerations and recommendations • Politicisation: The ruling party, Conseil National pour la Défense de la Démocratie – Forces pour la Défense de la Démocratie (the National Council for the Defence of Democracy – Forces for the Defence of Democracy, CNDD-FDD), is present at all levels of public (and often private) life.
