Abstract

Ce papier tente d'apprécier l'incidence de la politique budgétaire sur l'investissement privé et la croissance économique en R.D. Congo de 1990-2018. Dans ce sens, il évalue l'intensité du multiplicateur Budgétaire afin de statuer sur mécanisme budgétaire de quelques sous périodes. Une régression simple servira à cette fin. Nous estimons, comme Katuala (2020), un modèle de Vecteurs Autorégressifs structurels sous l'approche Bayésienne (B-SVAR) pour vérifier l'effet d'éviction et la dynamique macroéconomique sur les séries trimestrielles obtenues après désagrégation (Denton, 1971). La causalité de Granger (1980) et la cointégration de Johansen (1991) permettront de statuer sur les liens entre variables alors que l'identification des chocs du modèle s'inspire des travaux de Binning (2013) qui combinent les restrictions de signes et de zéros tant à court terme qu'à long terme dans le cadre de modèles VAR structurels sousidentifiés. Nos résultats ont révélé que : (i) Le multiplicateur budgétaire est très faible mais significatif. Ce qui pourrait justifier la faible force impulsive des investissements publics sur l'activité économique en R.D. Congo ; (ii) les chocs sur le Dépenses publiques n'ont pas donné des retombées escomptées sur la croissance économique ; (iii) les cours du cuivre sont restés rigides. Ce qui prouve que la R.D. Congo est un petit pays face à la scène internationale et (iv) Les investissements privés réagissent positivement aux soldes budgétaires et dépenses en capital du gouvernement congolais. Cette relation réfute l'hypothèse d'effet d'éviction.
