| Resumen: |
El objetivo general del Plan Nacional de Desarrollo (PND) de Sudáfrica es eliminar la pobreza, reducir la desigualdad, reducir el desempleo y aumentar la participación laboral. Este libro contribuye a los esfuerzos académicos y políticos para lograr estos objetivos del PND. Consideramos que los sectores del carbón, los minerales metálicos y las materias primas del grupo del platino sustentarán la minería como una industria "amanecer". La estrategia de crecimiento impulsado por las exportaciones es necesaria para la creación intensiva de empleo, pero debe complementarse con otras políticas micro, macroeconómicas e industriales. Una estrategia de beneficio de minerales es importante para la creación intensiva de empleo. La reforma agraria acelerada es una herramienta de intervención política de reforma estructural o del lado de la oferta destinada a aumentar la producción potencial, cambiar los patrones de propiedad en la economía, aumentar el espíritu empresarial, la absorción de mano de obra, la inclusión económica y reducir la desigualdad de ingresos. La evidencia muestra que el canal del balance, los auges y caídas de los precios de las materias primas están estrechamente relacionados con la dinámica del tipo de cambio, la incertidumbre política, la confianza y los efectos de las sequías (también síntomas del cambio climático). Los shocks de crecimiento de la productividad y la inversión son importantes para la producción, el empleo y la estabilidad de precios. La evidencia indica que un crecimiento del PIB nominal superior al 10 por ciento y mantener la inflación dentro de la banda meta conduce a un aumento significativo del empleo y una disminución del desempleo, sin presiones inflacionarias, especialmente cuando la inflación está por debajo del 4,5 por ciento. Para hacer operativos los objetivos del PND, alinear y coordinar políticas, el mandato del Banco de la Reserva de Sudáfrica (SARB) puede ampliarse para incluir el máximo empleo. Esto debe complementarse con una reducción de la banda objetivo de inflación y un ajuste de los marcos regulatorio financiero, macroprudencial y de política monetaria. Esto mejorará la conducta y la credibilidad de las políticas de estabilidad monetaria y financiera para lograr los objetivos fijados. Estos objetivos hacen que la coordinación de políticas sea pertinente y vinculante. |

1. Introduction -- Part I: Global real interest rates, economic and trade growth uncertainty shock effects on the South African economy -- 2. Is BRICS GDP growth a source of shocks or an amplifier of global growth responses? What are the policy implications for South Africa? -- 3. Global economic and policy uncertainty shock effects on the South African economy: Do these reinforce each other? -- 4. Heightened foreign policy uncertainty shocks effects: Transmission via capital flows, credit conditions and business confidence -- 5. In which direction is there a momentum effect in the changes in the spread between the repo rate and federal funds rate? -- 6. How do global real policy rates impact the South African GDP growth and labor market conditions? -- Part II: The Taylor curve, external shocks, labour market conditions and inflation expectations -- 7. The output-gap, nominal wage and consumer price inflation volatility trade-off -- 8. Output and inflation volatility trade-off: Do external shocks and inflation expectations shift the Taylor curve -- 9. Do adverse global trade developments shocks impact the trade-off between the inflation and output volatilities -- 10. Does the labour market conditions shock impact the trade-off between the inflation and output volatilities? -- 11. Output-inflation trade off and the issue of policy ineffectiveness -- 12. Do inflation regimes affect the transmission of nominal demand shocks to the price level? -- 13. What is the nature of the output-employment-unemployment nexus in South Africa? Evidence from various approaches to Okun's Law -- 14. Does the consideration of nominal wage growth imply a high level of inflation inertia or persistence compared to consumer price inflation? -- 15. Wage and consumer price inflation during exchange rate appreciation and depreciation episodes -- 16. Is there a case for nominal GDP growth targeting in South Africa? -- Part III: Policy uncertainty, mining sector charter, exchange rate volatility, commodity price booms and busts, binding minimum wage increases and the mining sector -- 17. How has the intensity of the ability of commodity specific output growth to create jobs evolved? Implications for the mining sector as a "sunrise industry" -- 18. Is export-led growth a necessary but insufficient condition for job creation in the mining sector? Does this mean that there is a strong case for beneficiation? -- 19 The impact of mining commodity price booms and sharp exchange rate depreciation episodes on mining output and employment growth -- 20. The role of the exchange rate on investment growth in the mining sector: Evidence from the balance sheet hypothesis -- 21. The role of the exchange rate volatilities on the mining sector -- 22. The role of policy uncertainty low confidence and the mining charter in the transmission of positive shocks to commodity prices in the mining sector -- 23. What are the mechanisms and channels through which the mining sector adjusted to an increase in the binding minimum wage in 2014? -- Part IV: Accelerated land reform, the agricultural sector and implications for macro-economic policies -- 24. The impact of structural change on the South African economy: Evidence from the structural change indices and McMillan and Rodrick (2011) labour productivity decomposition approach -- 25. Land reform, redistribution and agricultural investment growth: What are the implications for the NDP output and employment targets? -- 26. What is the role of food commodity price booms and busts in the agricultural sector? Implications for monetary policy -- 27. What is the role of trade liberalisation and food commodity price booms in the agricultural sector? Implications for the export-led growth strategy -- 28. Is the agricultural sector sensitive to the exchange rate depreciation and volatility: Evidence from the balance sheet channel -- 29. How are the interest rates and credit supply shocks transmitted to the agricultural sector? -- 30. What is the impact of a binding minimum wage on the agricultural sector? -- 31. Can land reform help reduce poverty and inequality? -- Part V: The transmission of sovereign debt downgrades into the credit markets and the real economy -- 32. What role does business confidence play in transmitting sovereign credit ratings upgrade and downgrades shocks to the real economy? -- 33. Are sovereign credit ratings shock transmitted via economic growth to impact credit growth dynamics? -- 34. Does the cost of government borrowing transmit the sovereign credit downgrade shocks to credit growth? -- Part VI: Capital flow surges, sudden stops and elevated portfolio volatility shocks: what is the nature of their interaction with GDP growth and credit and economic costs? -- 35. What are the economic costs of capital flow waves in South Africa? -- 36. Capital flow surges, sudden stops and elevated portfolio volatility shocks: What is the nature of their interaction with GDP growth and credit? -- 37.Do bank and non-bank capital flows induce sectorial reallocation of credit away from the household sector? -- 38. Do banking and non-banking capital flows induce sectorial reallocation of credit away from companies? -- 39. Do equity and debt inflows matter in the attainment of the price stability mandate? -- 40. Do local investors play a stabilizing role relative to foreign investors after economic shocks -- 41. Do investors' net purchases and capital retrenchment activities impact the monetary policy response to positive inflation shocks?. |
