Abstract

Commodity-exporting economies, such as South Africa, are susceptible to wide fluctuations in their business cycles, closely tied to commodity price fluctuations. In this research, we develop a prototype dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) model with specific features for emerging small open commodity-exporting economies, together with investigating the implications for monetary and fiscal policies following a commodity price shock.
