Abstract

Earlier studies analysing the impact of remittances affect the exchange rate were based on a symmetric approach, assuming that this impact is symmetrically. This paper examines the asymmetric impact of remittances on real effective exchange rate (REER) in Morocco. Our results show that, in both the long and short term, remittances have a negative impact on REER, which reject "dutch disease" hypothesis in the Moroccan context. The results further demonstrate a long-term asymmetric effect of remittances on REER. In light of these findings, it is recommended that Moroccan authorities should implement policies to pool and reallocate Moroccan migrants' savings towards productive investment, thereby reinforcing financial inclusion and providing tailored financial services to families left behind in receipt of these remittances.
摩洛哥移民汇款对实际有效汇率的不对称影响
早期分析汇款对汇率影响的研究是基于对称方法,假设这种影响是对称的。本文考察了汇款对摩洛哥实际有效汇率(REER)的不对称影响。我们的研究结果表明,在长期和短期内,汇款对REER都有负面影响,这在摩洛哥的情况下否定了“荷兰病”假说。结果进一步证明了汇款对REER的长期不对称影响。根据这些调查结果,建议摩洛哥当局实施政策,将摩洛哥移民的储蓄集中并重新分配给生产性投资,从而加强金融包容性,并为收到这些汇款的留守家庭提供量身定制的金融服务。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Policy Modeling is published by Elsevier for the Society for Policy Modeling to provide a forum for analysis and debate concerning international policy issues. The journal addresses questions of critical import to the world community as a whole, and it focuses upon the economic, social, and political interdependencies between national and regional systems. This implies concern with international policies for the promotion of a better life for all human beings and, therefore, concentrates on improved methodological underpinnings for dealing with these problems.
