  • Dollarization in Tanzania
    Working paper Dollarization in Tanzania Empirical Evidence and Cross-Country Experience Panteleo Kessy April 2011 Dollarization in Tanzania: Empirical Evidence and Cross-Country Experience Abstract The use of U.S dollar as unit of account, medium of exchange and store of value in Tanzania has raised concerns among policy makers and the general public. This paper attempts to shed some light on the key stylized facts of dollarization in Tanzania and the EAC region. We show that compared to other EAC countries, financial dollarization in Tanzania is high, but steadily declining. We also present some evidence of creeping transaction dollarization particularly in the education sector, apartment rentals in some parts of major cities and a few imported consumer goods such as laptops and pay TV services. An empirical analysis of the determinants of financial dollarization is provided for the period 2001 to 2009. Based on the findings and drawing from the experience of other countries around the world, we propose some policy measures to deal with prevalence of dollarization in the country. Acknowledgment: I am thankful to the IGC and the Bank of Tanzania for facilitating work on this paper. I am particularly grateful to Christopher Adam and Steve O’Connell for valuable discussions and comments on the first draft of this paper. However, the views expressed in this paper are solely my own and do not necessarily reflect the official views of any institution with which I’m affiliated. 2 Dollarization in Tanzania: Empirical Evidence and Cross-Country Experience 1. Introduction One of the most notable effects of the recent financial sector liberalization in Tanzania is the increased use of foreign currency (notably the U.S dollar) as a way of holding wealth and a means of transaction for goods and services by the domestic residents.

  • Written Evidence (ZAF0049)
    London Stock Exchange Group – Written evidence (ZAF0049) Submission on Local Currency Bond Markets for House of Lords International Relations Committee Inquiry “UK and Sub-Saharan Africa - prosperity, peace and development co-operation 1. London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG) is a diversified global financial markets infrastructure business focused on Information Services, Risk and Balance Sheet Management and Capital Formation. The Group supports global financial stability and sustainable economic growth by enabling businesses and economies to fund innovation and manage risk. 2. This submission looks at how raising debt finance from offshore capital pools in local currencies can serve as an important source of investment for African economies, mitigating an issuer’s currency risk associated with borrowing in a hard currency. This topic is especially relevant in light of recent falls in commodity prices and the economic shock of the Covid-19 crisis that has resulted in the appreciation of the US Dollar vis-à-vis emerging market currencies. This submission provides an overview of LSEG’s activity related to the development of local currency bond markets, with a focus on emerging markets. LSEG in Africa: A long-term partnership 3. London Stock Exchange Group has a long history of working in partnership with Africa, supporting the development of African capital markets and investment in African companies and infrastructure.

  • A Colonial Genealogy of Violence Against Tutsi Women in The
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Gender-Based Violence and Submerged Histories: A Colonial Genealogy of Violence Against Tutsi Women in the 1994 Rwandan Genocide A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Gender Studies by Helina Asmelash Beyene 2014 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Gender-Based Violence and Submerged Histories: A Colonial Genealogy of Violence Against Tutsi Women in the 1994 Rwandan Genocide by Helina Asmelash Beyene Doctor of Philosophy in Gender Studies University of California, Los Angeles, 2014 Professor Sondra Hale, Chair My dissertation is a genealogical study of gender-based violence (GBV) during the 1994 Rwandan genocide. A growing body of feminist scholarship argues that GBV in conflict zones results mainly from a continuum of patriarchal violence that is condoned outside the context of war in everyday life. This literature, however, fails to account for colonial and racial histories that also inform the politics of GBV in African conflicts. My project examines the question of the colonial genealogy of GBV by grounding my inquiry within postcolonial, transnational and intersectional feminist frameworks that center race, historicize violence, and decolonize knowledge production. I employ interdisciplinary methods that include (1) discourse analysis of the gender-based violence of Belgian rule and Tutsi women’s iconography in colonial texts; (2) ii textual analysis of the constructions of Tutsi women’s sexuality and fertility in key official documents on overpopulation and Tutsi refugees in colonial and post-independence Rwanda; and (3) an ethnographic study that included leading anti gendered violence activists based in Kigali, Rwanda, to assess how African feminists account for the colonial legacy of gendered violence in the 1994 genocide.

  • Determinants of Bilateral Trade Between China and Yemen: Evidence from Var Model
    International Journal of Economics, Commerce and Management United Kingdom Vol. V, Issue 5, May 2017 http://ijecm.co.uk/ ISSN 2348 0386 DETERMINANTS OF BILATERAL TRADE BETWEEN CHINA AND YEMEN: EVIDENCE FROM VAR MODEL Abdullah A. S. Mudhish College of Economics and Trade, Hunan University, China [email protected] Zhang Ya Bin The Dean, College of Economics and Trade, Hunan University, China Abstract This study investigates determinants of bilateral trade between China and Yemen providing empirical assessment of the extent to which economic fundamentals impact and influence the volume of trade between the two countries with a focus on the impact of GDP growth on exports and imports. Applying the Vector Autoregression (VAR) model, this study estimates the effect magnitude of economic growth both in China and Yemen on their bilateral trade in addition to the analysis of the impact of other control variables included in the study. The results of the Vector Auto regression VAR model imply that China real GDP positively impacts Yemen exports to China while Yemen real GDP is a determinant of Yemen imports from China. While real bilateral exchange rate has ambiguous impact on exports and imports, the real oil price negatively impact trade between the two countries. Keywords: China, Yemen, Exports, Imports, Trade, Vector Autoregression, GDP, Exchange rates, Oil price INTRODUCTION China witnessed huge economic growth and expansion during the last two decades and it has become the world’s second largest economy, and after its accession to World Trade Organization WTO in 2001, China has become the world’s largest exporter according to most recent trade statistics.
