Abstract

On s'intéresse dans cet article à l'impact de la libéralisation du compte capital sur le développement financier en Tunisie, sur la période 1986-2014. En s'appuyant sur un modèle ARDL on estime les effets de court terme et de long terme des principaux déterminants du développement financier. Les résultats confirment en particulier l'existence d'une relation de cointégration/long terme qui lie positivement le développement financier au PIB par tête, à l'ouverture commerciale et à l'ouverture du compte capital, et négativement au taux d'inflation et à la mauvaise gouvernance/corruption Ces conclusions sont largement confirmées par des tests de robustesse qui reposent en premier lieu sur des méthodes d'estimation différentes (DOLS et FMOLS), et en second lieu sur une mesure alternative de l'ouverture du compte capital/financière (mesure de jure de Chinn et Ito, 2008). This paper addresses the empirical question of whether capital account openness/financial liberalization can help explain financial development in Tunisia over the 1986-2014 period. Various estimates were made by the autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) model. Estimates show that the positive effect of capital account opening on financial development is much more important in the long term than in the short term, and these positive effects surpass those obtained for trade openness. Moreover, the results confirm the negative impact of corruption on the Tunisian financial system. Complementarily, robustness tests are realized. They confirm our previous results, on one side with DOLS and FMOLS alternative methods and on other side with an alternative measure of capital account openness proposed by Chinn and Ito (2008).
