Abstract

Diese Studie untersucht die Auswirkungen von Wechselkursfehlern auf die Kapitalflucht in Botswana im Zeitraum 1980-2015. Die Studie verwendet den autoregressiven Distributed Lag (ARDL) -Ansatz zur Kointegration und den Toda- und Yamamoto (1995) -Ansatz zur Granger-Kausalität. Die Währungsfehlausrichtung in Botswana wurde durch Leistungsbilanzungleichgewichte verursacht. Die wichtigste Determinante der Kapitalflucht aus Botswana ist die Offenheit des Handels, was darauf hinweist, dass exportierbare Waren falsch abgerechnet werden, was zu Nettokapitalabflüssen führt. Unsere wichtigsten Ergebnisse zeigen, dass bei einer Überbewertung der Währung das Volumen der Kapitalflucht durch falsche Handelsabrechnung und die Erhöhung der Währungsreserven auf lange Sicht die Kapitalflucht nach außen nicht verringert. Wenn die Währung jedoch unterbewertet ist, steigt das Volumen der Kapitalflucht durch falsche Handelsabrechnung und die Währungsreserven verringern die Kapitalflucht nach außen. Anleger reagieren eher auf Abwertungsaussichten als auf Inflation. Botswana sollte eine Überbewertung der Pula von nur bis zu 5% tolerieren. Wenn der Pula über 5% überbewertet ist, steigt die Kapitalflucht erheblich. Die Regierung muss Handelsregulierungen formulieren und importierte und exportierte Waren überwachen. Botswana sollte auch Kapitalkontrollen durchführen, um den Kapitalschmuggel zu begrenzen und die Währungsautonomie aufrechtzuerhalten.
