“…This result is consistent with the findings of Akpansung (1998) that reserve accumulation is negatively related to the rate of growth of domestic credit. Similar results can also be found in Tijani (2014), and Imoughele and Ismaila (2015). Furthermore, the established negative relationship supports Polak's formulation that an increase in domestic credit reduces the level of net foreign assets and balance of payments position.…”

“…The marginal propensity to import was estimated at 20 per cent. In a more related study, Tijani (2014) found a direct relationship between balance of payments and domestic credit, exchange rate and balance of trade using an OLS regression. The study argues that monetary measure is an effective mechanism for BOP management, but dependent on the policy mix of the monetary authority.…”

“…Research in Nigeria has examined the applicability of using monetary approach for balance of payments with the intention of exploring the determinants of the balance of payments. It has revealed the competent of the theory and further explained the positive relationship between balance of payments and exchange rate (Tijani, 2014).…”

“…However, the current monetary policy frame work focuses on the maintenance of price stability and balance of payments equilibrium, while the promotion of economic growth and employment generation are secondary goals of the policy. Tijani (2014) asserted that in achieving stability in balance of payment disequilibrium, it is undoubtedly the primary aim of monetary theory of balance of payment. However the two phases devised are before and after the Structural Adjustment Programme in Nigeria (SAP) of 1986.…”

“…Nevertheless this conclusion is slightly in variance to the modified monetary approach to devaluation as propounded by Johnson and Frenkel (1976) and elaborated by Connoly andTaybr 1976,1979 which was employed by Nyong and Obafemi (1995). Tijani (2014) empirically analyzed Balance of payments adjustment mechanisms using monetary channel in Nigeria from 1970-2010. The regression analysis found a positive relationship between the BOP and domestic credit, exchange rate and Balance of trade while inflation rate and GDP have a negative effect and concluded that monetary measures constitute immensely to the position of BOP, cause disturbances and also serve as adjustment mechanism to bring BOP to equilibrium depending on its application and policy mix by monetary authority.…”
