  1. Country Risk and Capital Flows The case of South Africa by group no. 2

  2. Background • South Africa has undergone a great deal of political change • The implication were among a number of thinks a significant reduction in the country risk associated with investments in SA. • Implementation in the GTAP model: • standard model and GE closure • no need for swaps

  3. Implementation • Shock: • Estimate based on ‘real observations’ • Measure based on Deutchmark bond issues fell by 13.5 per cent • We shock the cgdslack by this amount (-13.5 per cent)

  4. Model equations Expected rate of return rore(r) = rorg = cgdsslack Allocation of investments: rore(r) = rore(r) - RORFLEX*(ke(r)-kb(r))

  5. Results

  6. Results - demand for intermediates and factors • Derived direct demand from cap. good sector • Techmnfc • Svces • Factor market effects • factor intensities in expanding sectors • factor prices (+) • Supply prices (zero profits) • Trade effects (effects on other regions)

  7. Risk Premium decline: FTA among SA and Rest of Southern Africa • Pre-shock data FTA and Non-FTA • Post-shock data FTA and Non-FTA • Welfare effects on Rest of S. Africa

  8. Pre-shock trade flows RESTSA - SA (US$ m)

  9. Pre-shock inputs to capital goods industry, SA

  10. Post-shock: Welfare effects

  11. Post-shock: Increased Allocative Efficiency, Rest of Southern Africa Allocative effect 37 - mtax 47 Light manf Light manf ROW Tech manf 21 25 EU Tech manf Heavy manf Heavy manf Increased imports to RESTSAF from EU and ROW

  12. Small Group II Extension: • Effects of Changing RORFLEX parameter

  13. Introduction: The RORFLEX and The Rate of Return ApproachThe sensitivity of the RORFLEX Backward shock   

  14. Investment depends on ‘expected’ rate of return in next period This rate declines as capital stock rises.. The rate at witch this decline is expected is a function of the flexibility parameter RORFLEX(r ) > 0 So RORE( r )=RORC( r)[KE( r ) / KB( r )] -RORFLEX( r )

  15. More about RORE( r)... ROR Flexibility(parameter) Expected rate of return End of period Capital stock RORE( r )=RORC( r)[KE( r ) / KB( r )] -RORFLEX( r ) Beginning capital stock Current period rate of return Thanks, to Soren and Rob

  16. Modeling risk • The global bank equalizes risk-adjusted rates of return, so that risk-adjusted rates for all regions are egal to some global average; • with: • RORE( r)= non risk-adjusted expected rate of return • RISK( r)= ratio of equilibruim returns in region r to the global average rate of return

  17. A risk premium We have RORE(r )/RISK( r)=RORG => RORE( r) = RISK( r) * RORG by total differentiation rore(r ) = rorg + risk( R) We have also rore(e)= rorg + cgdslack(s ) [equation 11’ , Hertel and Tsigas] so cgdslack(r )=risk(r ) ==> cgdslack is equivalent to the percentage change in the variable RISK We can refer to this, rather than risk

  18. RORFLEX …and regional investment changes • A small RORFLEX needs large changes in end of capital stock, KE(r ), to induce small changes in RORE(r ) • THEN • Low values of RORFLEX(r ) lead to big changes in regional investment • High value lead to small changes:” In this case the supply of new capital goods is not very sensitive to changes in the expected return • We assume that investors behave that changes in regional rates of return are equalized across regions; • the global rate of return changes by the same percent :

  19. THE SENSITIVITY OF THE RORFLEX RORE=f [RISK(r)] RORFLEX -13% Cgdslack(r ) 5% 10% 20% (Supply Capital) dK

  20. Impacts of RORFLEX Impacts on net capital inflow and welfare effects. Simulations: change value of RORFLEX Shock is always the same (cgdslack = -13.5%) • RORFLEX = 10% (base run) • RORFLEX = 5% • RORFLEX = 20% RORFLEX is changed for all five regions.

  21. Net Capital Inflow

  22. Welfare Effects

  23. 5‘027 -414 +13.5% Backward shock Net Capital Inflow in SA 15’676 5’726 Time shock -13.5%

  24. 7’523 5’441 Why an Adjustment? Net Capital Inflow in SA 5’726 5‘027 -414 -1’797 Time

  25. Possibilities of Adjustment Problem: Change of Investment is too big compared with the historical Values Possibilities: • Shock; Assumption is still the same (Shock cgdslack=+13.5%) • RORFLEX; Increase of RORFLEX reduces Investment

  28. How to shock ? • SHOCK BASE SHOCK capital inflow into South Africa: negative shock to “cgdslack” cgdslack("safrica") = -13.5 ADDITIONAL SHOCK technical progress at TECHMNFC & SVCES: positive shock to “ao” ao("TECHMNFC","SAFRICA") = 1.0 ao("SVCES","SAFRICA") = 1.0

  29. Initial effects induced by Tech change Capital inflow = Direct Investment Capital Stock increase Management resource ( know-how , hi-tech etc)increase Technical Progress Price fall (equation (6’)) Output increase (equation(35)(36))

  34. Export quantities change % change

  35. SOME CONCLUSIONS Additional impacts on “ao( , )” cause : • SVCES sector growth • endowments concentration to SVCES • Other sectors scale decrease • Total export decrease (more capital inflow)
