摘要

本文分析了1980-2004年间喀麦隆贸易自由化和投资政策改革与经济增长之间的联系。在确定了似乎朝着自由化方向发展的贸易和投资政策改革和市场准入条件之后,似乎仍在等待其预期结果。然而,成本/收益分析的事实倾向于证实文献的断言,即它们的长期收益效应优于短期调整成本。尽管由于贸易优惠,市场准入条件有所改善,但该国没有充分利用这一机会以及贸易和投资政策改革所提供的机会,因为仍然存在贸易、投资、体制和经济瓶颈,包括治理不善和外部(主要是内部)供应限制。增长弹性决定因素预测模型结果表明,为解除这些限制而进行的额外改革对于促进喀麦隆的增长是必要和不可或缺的。喀麦隆的贸易和投资政策改革:影响评估和观点

Trade and investment policy reforms in Cameroon: Impact assessment and perspectives
The paper analyzes the links between liberalization of trade and investment policy reforms and economic growth in Cameroon within 1980-2004. After identifying trade and investment policy reforms and market access conditions, which appears to gear towards liberalization, it appears that their expected results are still awaited. However, facts from the costs/benefits analysis tend to confirm the literature assertion that their long term benefit effects are superior to their short term adjustment costs. Despite the improvement in market access conditions thanks to trade preferences, the country did not take full advantage of that opportunity as well as those offered by trade and investment policy reforms because of the remaining trade, investment, institutional and economic bottlenecks including poor governance and external and mostly internal supply constraints. The growth elasticity determinant forecast model results show that additional reforms in view to lift those constraints are necessary and indispensable to boost growth in Cameroon.
