This study aims at examining the debt threshold effects on economic growth in Africa. Non-dynamic and dynamic panel threshold regression approaches are used. The findings indicate that the estimated debt threshold is sensitive to the estimation technique used and to growth control variables included in the estimation. Existence of nonlinearities in the debt-growth nexus cannot be denied. The findings show that while low debt is neutral or growth-enhancing, high debt is consistently detrimental to growth for all the cases considered. This study shows that caution is needed when suggesting a debt threshold since this can be sensitive to modelling choice and to growth control variables. Nonlinearities in the debt-growth nexus are established but further analysis is needed to suggest a policy.

“…A vast majority of the earlier empirical literature based their empirical estimates on panels consisting of both developing and developed economies (Fischer (1993), Barro (1995), Bruno andEasterly (1998), Sarel (1996), Ghosh and Phillips (1998) and Kahn and Senhadji (2001), Drukker et al (2005), Hineline (2007), Kremer et. (2009), Vaona (2012, Vinayagathasan (2013), Seleteng et al (2013), Eggoh and Kahn (2014), Ibarra and Trupkin (2016) and Ndoricimpa (2017)). Notably these studies advocate for a negative effect of inflation on economic growth in both developed and developing economies, although inflation was deemed to have a stronger adverse effect in industrialized economies.…”

Does inflation affect economic growth in Botswana over the short-run and longrun? In applying bounds procedure for modelling ARDL cointegation effects applied to empirical data collected between 1975 and 2016 we find that this hypothesis does not hold true for Botswana as inflation is found to be insignificantly related with economic growth over both the short and long-run. Our growth equation estimates point to exports (positive), government size (negative) and an Pula/Dollar exchange rate (negative) as being significantly correlated with steady-state GDP growth. Further empirical exercises show that an appreciated Pula/dollar exchange rate increases inflation whilst bearing no effect on economic growth. Conversely, a depreciated Pula/Dollar exchange simultaneously decreases inflation and economic growth for the Botswana economy. Policymakers should be this aware that attainment of lower inflation rates which occurs through a depreciated Pula/Dollar currency will only retard economic growth.

“…Zaidi (2005) asserted that its component has genuine ramifications for monetary improvement of the nation, as it decides how and where assets are to be designated in the distinctive economic sectors. Therefore, the essential reported goal of national banks is to accomplish and practical measures of monetary development alongside short and constant percentages of inflation (Ibarra and Trupkin, 2016;Malik, 2007). In UAE, it is basically focused at keeping up the quality of being steady or unfailing in price and maintains a pegged conversion scale of AED3.67 to the US dollar.…”

Inflation has become serious and argumentative problems for most developed countries. The impact of these concerns derived from various sources, each of which may bring about diverse effects on economic activity in general. Among different countries, United Arab Emirates as one of oil-dependent country has an extremely particular involvement as far as inflation. Economy of UAE has experienced occasions of high (2006-2008) and low (2010-2011) regimes of double digit inflation for more than decades. With the price precariousness, a consistent and tenacious increment has been found to influence financial development, way of life similarly the value of the currency, which thusly impacts the country’s conversion standard. The purpose of this paper endeavors to clarify the determinants that subsidize extensively to inflation in the UAE. The methodology utilized as a part of this examination depends on interpretive strategy which derived from perception and through evaluation of literatures relating to the subject matter. The investigation was finished by analyzing, examining and selecting of data systematically and objectively in order to gather collated information. The findings uncovered inflationary pressure influences UAE organizations is through the principle parts of consumer price data. In addition, this paper additionally expected to have a wide understanding to the implementation of management strategies, including contractionary fiscal and monetary approaches to diminish the money supply and ultimately the spending in the country.
