Abstract

[eng] Disequilibria and Quantitative Adjustment on the Tunisian Intermediate and Capital Goods Import Market: An Estimate Using the Simulated Pseudo-Maximum Likelihood Method . byRiadhBenJelili . This article looks at a market that is particularly important to investment projects in Tunisia: the intermediate and capital goods market. We concentrate on a short-term outlook (with prices considered to be exogenous and fixed) and develop a disequilibrium model for the Tunisian intermediate and capital goods import market. This model integrates both supply and demand constraints. Furthermore, we introduce the possibility of investment behaviour adjusting to the disequilibrium situation observed on the market in question. By estimating this model using the simulated pseudo maximum likelihood method, we highlight the role of quantitative adjustments in reducing disequilibria. However, the adjustment is not total and the hypothesis of fixed prices would appear to be rather extreme. . [fre] Investissement et rationnement sur le marché tunisien des importations de biens d'équipement . par Riadh Ben Jelili . Dans cet article, nous nous intéressons à un marché particulièrement important pour la réalisation des projets d'investissement en Tunisie. Il s'agit du marché des importations de biens intermédiaires et d'équipement (BIE). Nous nous plaçons dans un horizon de court terme (les prix sont supposés exogènes et fixés), et développons un modèle de déséquilibre du marché tunisien des importations de BIE, qui intègre aussi bien les contraintes d'offre que les contraintes de demande. Nous introduisons en outre la possibilité d'ajustement du comportement d'investissement à la situation du déséquilibre observé sur le marché en question. L'estimation de ce modèle par le pseudo-maximum de vraisemblance simulé a permis de mettre en évidence le rôle des ajustements quantitatifs dans la résorption des déséquilibres. Cependant, cet ajustement n'est pas total et l'hypothèse de prix fixes s
