As a less restrictive trade regime is associated with greater responsiveness to economic incentives, econometric evidence that does not allow for the impact of import controls cannot be used reliably to assess the effect of a devaluation on the trade balance.The PohLcy PlanImn& ad Reseach Canplex distributes PPR Wo* ug Papes to disseminate the findings of wrk tn progess and to encomage the exchange of ideu among Bank stff and al others inteested in development issue Thesc papers cairy the nam of the authos, reflec only their views, and should be used and cited sccordingly. he findings. intrpetutiats, and ecclusions ae the authoos own.

“…These views were 'heavily influenced by the structuralist ideas of the 7. Some 20 years later, McCarthy, Taylor and Talati (1987) analysed patterns of trade in developing and developed economies (1964-82).

“…Syrquin and Chenery (1989) re-examined a reduced set of development patterns, focusing on economic structure related to the sectoral allocation of resources for 108 economies during the period 1950-1983. Trade patterns were especially analyzed in McCarthy, Taylor, and Talati (1987). Branson, Guerrero and Gunter (1997) have re-examined the key patterns of development for a total of 93 countries with annual data from 1970-1994, using both crosssectional and time-series analysis.…”

Economic Structure and Macroeconomic Uncertainty: Policy Implications for Bangladesh

et al. 2014

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

This paper begins with examining Bangladesh's economic structural transformation during 1980-2010, which is compared and contrasted with the transformation of India and Pakistan. It then calculates and compares the three countries' macroeconomic volatility and uncertainty for the observation period (1980-2010), using unbiased volatility and uncertainty measures. It also reviews the evolution of Bangladesh's macroeconomic uncertainty for each decade (i.e., the 1980s, 1990s and the 2000s). It shows, for example, that Bangladesh's GDP volatility and uncertainty have been increasing over time. Reflecting on the fact that macroeconomic uncertainty has a negative impact on investment and growth, the paper derives various policy implications for Bangladesh, highlighting the importance of economic diversification, countercyclical monetary policy, smoothing external factors, and building up reserves and buffers. iii
