Optimal fiscal management of commodity price shocks
Social capital, product imitation and growth with learning externalities
Aid volatility and poverty traps
Imperfections du marché du crédit et mécanisme de transmission de la politique monétaire dans les pays à moyen revenu
Cet article généralise le cadre analytique proposé par Agénor et Montiel [2006, 2007, 2008 a ] pour étudier les implications des imperfections du marché du crédit sur le mécanisme de transmission de la politique monétaire dans les pays à moyen revenu, où les banques jouent un rôle essentiel dans le financement de l’activité économique. Au cœur de ce mécanisme s’articulent le canal du coût du crédit et l’impact de la richesse nette des emprunteurs…
Roads out of poverty? Assessing the links between aid, public investment, growth, and poverty reduction

Linking Representative Household Models with Household Surveys for Poverty Analysis: A Comparison of Alternative Methodologies
The authors compare three approaches to \n linking representative-household macro models with micro \n household income data in terms of their implications for \n measuring the poverty and distributional effects of policy \n shocks. These approaches are a simple micro-accounting \n method, an extension of that method to account for changes \n in employment structure, and the Beta distribution approach. \n Even though in the authors simulation exe…

Unemployment-Poverty Trade-offs
The author examines the potential trade-offs that may arise between poverty alleviation and unemployment reduction. He discusses various analytical arguments that may provide a rationale for their existence, and uses three alternative methodologies to assess their relevance: a vector autoregression framework (which is applied to Brazil and Chile), cross-country regressions, and simulations with a structural macro model linked to a household surve…
Labor Market Reforms, Growth, and Unemployment in Labor-Exporting Countries in the Middle East and North Africa
This paper studies the impact of labor market policies on growth and unemployment in labor-exporting countries in the Middle East and North Africa. The analysis is based on a framework that captures many of the main features of the labor market in these countries. We conduct a variety of policy experiments, including a reduction in payroll taxation, cuts in public sector wages and employment, an increase in employment subsidies, a reduction in tr…
Fiscal adjustment and labor market dynamics in an open economy
The Mini-Integrated Macroeconomic Model for Poverty Analysis: A Framework for Analyzing the Unemployment and Poverty Effects of Fiscal and Labor Market Reforms
The author describes a specialized and less data-intensive version of the Integrated Macroeconomic Model for Poverty Analysis (IMMPA) developed by Agenor, Izquierdo, and Fofack (2003) and Agenor, Fernandes, Haddad, and van der Mensbrugghe (2002). The mini-IMMPA focuses only on the "real" side but it offers a more detailed treatment of the labor market (by accounting, for instance, for public education, employment subsidies, and job security provi…
Labor Market Policies and Unemployment in Morocco: A Quantitative Analysis
The authors study the impact of labor market policies on unemployment in Morocco. They begin by reviewing the main features of the labor market. Then they present a quantitative framework that captures many of these features-such as a large public sector, high redundancy payments, powerful trade unions, and international labor migration. The authors simulate the impact of a cut in the minimum wage and a reduction in payroll taxation. The results …
