  • Introduction
    SUMMARY REPORT On Implementation of RA Government Anti-crisis Action Plan Introduction 1. The Republic of Armenia was able to withstand the first tide of the global financial and economic crisis firstly thanks to efficacious financial control leading to historically high financial system stability indicators and, secondly due to the lack of “hot” money in Armenia’s financial sector. Besides, domestic financial markets did not maintain too strong ties with global sub-prime markets. In particular, unlike developed economies, Armenia’s banking and financial institutions escaped panic with relatively low demand for liquidity. While GDP growth was below target in 2008, there was a 6.8% growth recorded in the same period against a 5% average for the CIS countries. Note that Armenia is ahead of Russia (5.6%) and Ukraine (2.1%) as for economic performance indicators. 2. Nevertheless, like many other countries, Armenia was not spared by the crisis, with the bulk of its impact coming down on the real sector which experienced some downward tendency. This was chiefly conditioned by the following factors: · Reduced remittances from abroad · Lower raw material and mineral ore prices on the global markets · Lower demand for Armenian commodity and service exports due to curbed global demand · Shrinking influx of investment into Armenia due to the lack of liquidity in the global economy. 3. Falling real estate prices on the global markets led to diminished interest for domestic immovable assets. This, coupled with (or conditioned by) reduced investment, ended by freezing the main driving force of Armenia’s economics – the building sector. Inferior household income and altered consumer behavior, on the one hand and reduced foreign demand on domestic goods and services, on the other hand, resulted in less activity in number of economic branches in Armenia.

Fax: (+256-414) 233818 Website: www.bou.or.ug E-mail: [email protected] CRANE BANK TO APPEAL TO SUPREME COURT KAMPALA – 30 June 2020 – Bank of Uganda (BoU) wishes to inform the public of its decision to appeal the Court of Appeal’s dismissal of the case filed by Crane Bank Limited (in Receivership) vs. Sudhir Ruparelia and Meera Investments Limited to the Supreme Court. In exercise of its powers under sections 87(3), 88(1)(a)&(b) of the Financial Institutions Act, 2004, BoU placed Crane Bank Ltd (In Receivership) [“Crane Bank”] under Statutory Management on 20th October 2016. This decision was necessary upon discovering that Crane Bank had significant and increasing liquidity problems that could not be resolved without the Central Bank’s intervention given that Crane Bank had failed to obtain credit from anywhere else. An inventory by external auditors found that the assets of Crane Bank were significantly less than its liabilities. In order to protect the financial system and prevent loss to the depositors of Crane Bank, Bank of Uganda had to spend public funds to pay Crane Bank’s depositors. A subsequent forensic investigation as to why Crane Bank became insolvent found a number of wrongful and irregular activities linked to Sudhir Ruparelia and Meera Investments Ltd. These findings form the basis of the claims in the lawsuit by Crane Bank. The suit was necessary for recovery of the taxpayers’ money used to pay depositors’ funds as well as the other liabilities of Crane Bank.

  • 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.

  • Monetary Policy Rule and Taylor Principle in Mongolia: GMM and DSGE Approaches
    International Journal of Financial Studies Article Monetary Policy Rule and Taylor Principle in Mongolia: GMM and DSGE Approaches Hiroyuki Taguchi * and Ganbayar Gunbileg Graduate School of Humanities and Social Sciences, Saitama University, 225 Shimo-Okubo, Sakura-ku, Saitama 338-8570, Japan; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +81-48-858-3324 Received: 22 October 2020; Accepted: 11 November 2020; Published: 16 November 2020 Abstract: This article aims to examine the monetary policy rule under an inflation targeting in Mongolia with a focus on its conformity to the Taylor principle, through two kinds of approaches: a monetary policy reaction function by the generalized-method-of-moments (GMM) estimation and a New Keynesian dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) model with a small open economy version by the Bayesian estimation. The main findings are summarized as follows. First, the GMM estimation identified an inflation-responsive rule fulfilling the Taylor principle in the recent phase of the Mongolian inflation targeting. Second, the DSGE-model estimation endorsed the GMM estimation by producing a consistent outcome on the Mongolian monetary policy rule. Third, the Mongolian rule was estimated to have a weaker response to inflation than the rules of the other emerging Asian adopters of an inflation targeting. Keywords: monetary policy rule; Taylor principle; Mongolia; inflation targeting; GMM; the New Keynesian DSGE model; E52; E58; O53 1. Introduction Mongolia has evolved her monetary policy framework, since she transformed the economic system from a centrally planned economy to a market-based economy in the early 1990s. In 1991, the Bank of Mongolia (BOM) started implementing monetary policy as a central bank.
