Download or read book External Debt and Economic Growth in Sub-Saharan Africa written by Atakilt Hagos and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2011-03 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effect of external debt on economic growth has been among the contentious issues. Based on panel data for 44 Sub-Saharan African countries for a period of over 30 years, this book reveals that external debt stock and debt services are found to have a statistically significant negative impact on economic growth especially at higher debt levels of debt/GDP ratio. The growth maximizing level of debt stock ranges from 25% to 45% of GDP. Furthermore, external debt affected growth by adversely affecting human capital formation. Debt service payments are also found to have the "crowding out" effects on private investment. The implication of these findings is that countries in Africa should align their public policies towards maintaining a sustainable level of indebtedness, improve the quality of their man power, enhance good governance and control corruption. In addition to the provision of new loans, developed countries and multilateral institutions should foster development cooperation and fairer trade for Africa. Postgraduate students and other researchers will benefit by reading this book as it adds value to the theoretical and empirical literature on external debt.

Book Synopsis The Effect of External Debt on Economic Growth in Sub-Saharan Africa by : Bernardin Senadza
Download or read book The Effect of External Debt on Economic Growth in Sub-Saharan Africa written by Bernardin Senadza and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Purpose: This paper examines the effect of external debt on economic growth in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) in view of an upsurge in the level of external debt in many countries on the continent. Design/methodology/approach: The paper uses annual data for 39 SSA countries from 1990 to 2013 and employs the System Generalised Methods of Moments (GMM) estimation technique. Findings: The paper finds that external debt negatively affects economic growth in SSA. Categorization of countries based on per capita income however does not affect the external debt-growth nexus, neither does there exist a non-linear relationship between external debt and economic growth. Research limitations/implications: The finding of a negative relationship between external debt and growth does not necessarily imply that SSA countries should cut back on foreign borrowing in other to boost growth. Rather, given the huge savings gaps in some of the countries, what governments in SSA must do is to ensure that the foreign loans are invested in projects that would eventually generate enough returns to amortize the debt. Originality/value: Not only does the present paper extend to more recent data but we also apply one of the frontier econometric techniques - the system GMM approach - to unravel the external debt-economic growth dynamics in SSA.

Book Synopsis The Debt - Growth Link in Sub-Saharan Africa by : Chinedu Chinedu
Download or read book The Debt - Growth Link in Sub-Saharan Africa written by Chinedu Chinedu and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2011-01 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the economic crisis that hit most developing countries in the early 1980s, public deficits and the stock of foreign debt in Cameroon consistently grew over the two decades to the beginning of the 21st century. While it has been argued that foreign currency debt and widening budget deficits are impediments to economic growth in Sub-Saharan Africa, the differences in socio-economic conditions across these countries make generalisations about them inadequate. This book provides an insight into the particular case of Cameroon by assessing the relationship between its external debt and economic growth rate. The in-depth analysis of the country's debt profile, contained in this book, would be useful for both scholars and policy-makers who seek a better understanding of the debt-growth nexus.

Download or read book An Analysis of External Debt and Capital Flight in the Severely Indebted Low Income Countries in Sub-Saharan Africa written by Mr.Simeon Inidayo Ajayi and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1997-06-01 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The general objective of this study is to analyze the external debt and debt burdens of the severely indebted sub-Saharan African countries, estimate the magnitude of capital flight from them, and relate the estimate of capital flight to some macroeconomic aggregates. The study also contains policy implications of international efforts to deal with the high levels of external debt in sub-Saharan Africa in conditions of extreme poverty, and stagnant and declining exports. It questions the theoretical foundation in which the external debt strategy has been based and offers solutions to the external debt problem.
Book Synopsis Debt, Development, and Equity in Africa by : Karamo N. M. Sonko
Download or read book Debt, Development, and Equity in Africa written by Karamo N. M. Sonko and published by University Press of America. This book was released on 1994 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book assesses the impact of the African debt crisis on poverty. The author studies the relationship between debt and socio-economic development in Sub-Saharan Africa. Furthermore, Sonko analyzes the impact of debt-induced expenditure adjustments, including budgetary retrenchment in an African economy undergoing structural adjustment. Sustainable, self-reliant development, debt relief, and the redesign of structural adjustment programs to make them less controversial and more effective in Africa are required. The overall analysis is conducted with a view to what the author refers to as the "state of global interconnectedness," implying the need for global economic policy coordination and assistance in finding solutions to Africa's development problems. Contents: The Debt Burden: Trends, Causes and Comparative Analysis; Debt and Development; Debt, Adjustment and Equity; Structural Adjustment Programs: Criticisms, Evolution and Forms for the 1990s; The African Debt Crisis: What Can and Should be Done? Summary and Concluding Remarks; Appendix; Bibliography; Index.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The COVID-19 pandemic has taken a toll on human life and brought major disruption to economic activity across the world. Despite a late arrival, the COVID-19 virus has spread rapidly across Sub-Saharan Africa in recent weeks. Economic growth in Sub-Saharan Africa is projected to decline from 2.4 percent in 2019 to -2.1 to -5.1 percent in 2020, the first recession in the region in 25 years. The coronavirus is hitting the region’s three largest economies —Nigeria, South Africa, and Angola— in a context of persistently weak growth and investment. In particular, countries that depend on oil and mining exports would be hit the hardest. The negative impact of the COVID-19 crisis on household welfare would be equally dramatic. African policymakers need to develop a two-pronged strategy of “saving lives and protecting livelihoods.†? This strategy includes relief measures and recovery measures aimed at strengthening health systems, providing income support to workers and liquidity support to viable businesses. However, financing of these policies will be challenging amid deteriorating fiscal positions and heightened public debt vulnerabilities. Therefore, African countries will require financial assistance from their development partners -including COVID-19 related multilateral assistance and a debt service stand still with creditors.
