Vulnerability to macro-financial shocks • Poorest countries are more vulnerable to macro-financial shocks: 45% of LICs are highly vulnerable versus 32% of LMICs. • Most important transmission channels of shocks appear to be (i) trade and financial linkages with European economies; (ii) dependence on remittances; (iii) trade linkages with China and (mainly in the case of LMICs) India. • Almost all countries have high fiscal and current account deficits. • The most highly vulnerable countries are Senegal and Cape Verde. • Several countries with an intermediate degree of vulnerability have weak trade linkages with emerging powers. • Some countries with a low degree of vulnerability are particularly resilient. 19 Case studies: actual impacts • Actual impacts of the euro zone crisis and China/India slow-down are becoming increasingly apparent, with more expected. • in Kenya: o horticultural and tea exports declined by about 10% and 3% respectively in the first six months of 2012 • in Zambia: o copper exports increased at a slower pace in 2011 and 2012 (in estimates) than in 2009 o exports to European partners declined in 2011 o exports to China increased at a lower rate in 2011 (42%) than in 2010 (137%) o Lusaka Stock Exchange All Share Index dropped in May 2012 • in Cambodia: o ODA declined by more than 50% between 2010-12 20 Policy analysis • Developing countries (LICs) should be concerned since: they have become more open global shocks have become more frequent with significant effects on growth and development outcomes links with emerging powers have increased buffers have deteriorated after 2008-09 crisis • However, we need to qualify these concerns: LICs are still growing, and faster than developed economies so far effects of the combined global shocks are smaller than those of the 2008-09 crisis better policies have created more fiscal space and slightly more diversified economies in this decade than previously not all countries are vulnerable to all shocks many shocks are interdependent with some cancelling each other out 21 Policy analysis • What should developing countries do? need to monitor external shocks and their possible effects more than was the case in the past introduce appropriate policy responses, especially targeted measures to raise productivity • How can donors help? safeguarding the future of shock facilities enhancing coordination and coherence amongst shock facilities encouraging the monitoring of effects of external shocks on developing countries 22 Thank you!
