Master's Thesis from the year 2016 in the subject Economics - Finance, grade: 2, Addis Ababa University (College of Bussiness and Economics), course: Accounting and Finance, language: English, abstract: This study aims to empirically examine the impact of financial liberalization on economic development in Ethiopia over the period of 1984-2014. In doing so, the ARDL approach to Co-integration and Error Correction Model were employed to investigate the long run and short run relationships. Accordingly, the empirical results obtained from the study indicate that financial widening has contributed significantly to the increase in saving and the level of economic growth. Even though, the total deposit happens to generate more investment; there is shortage of supply of credit. In addition, the study indicates financial widening and credit to the private sector exhibited a significant positive association with financial development while total banks credit bearing a significant impact on industrial development. However, the overall financial reform showed insignificant association both with economic growth and industrial development. The efficiency in allocating financial resources show significant positive association with share of banks credit to the private sector, however, the overall financial reform has positive insignificant impact on efficiency of resource allocation. The contribution of financial sector after the deregulation has a mixed result on welfare. In terms of catalyzing employment opportunity, financial widening and the overall liberalization policy measure have played a positive role while the financial development has no significant impact on employment creation. Financial widening has significant positive impact on poverty alleviation while the overall policy measure has insignificant impact on the impoverished. Consequently, the result of the study indicate the overall financial liberalization measure actually decrease the likelihood of financial instability and indicates the direction of causality going from economic growth to financial development proving the demand leading hypothesis, which in turn portrays the heavy involvement of government in the financial sector.

This study analyzes the practical implications of financial market liberalization on Saving, Investment, Inflation and Economic Growth in Ethiopia, using time series data covering the period 1974 - 2004. The Johansen Maximum Likelihood Estimation Procedure is used to see the short and long run dynamics of macroeconomic variables and their response to a major policy shift from a closed command economy to a semi-open market economy. The Mckinnon-Shaw hypotheses is tested and used as a bench mark to compare the effect of removal of repressive policies and development of financial markets against the pre-reform pervasive government intervention policies in accelerating economic growth, increasing domestic saving and investment. The shifts in policy regimes are captured by period dummies in the regressions. The results indicate that saving is positively and significantly affected by the real deposit rate of interest and income growth. Domestic investment has a positive long-run equilibrium relationship with output growth whereas the real depreciation of the exchange rate and an increasing level of government debt are found to have a negative effect on private domestic investment.

The aim of the study is to assess the impact of financial liberalization on the ownership structure, market concentration and profitability performance of the Ethiopian banking industry. The study found out that the reform has brought a lot of remarkable changes on the structure and performance of the banking sector as compared with the situations prevalent before the reform period. However, as tested by both two firm concentration ratio and HHI using total deposits, loans, capital and assets, the banking industry in Ethiopia can still be distinguished by its market concentration towards the big government owned commercial banks and by a market characterized by little and insufficient competition.

This book measures the impact of foreign direct investment (FDI) on economic growth in Ethiopia based on annual time series data over the period 1974 to 2011. It in particular examines how FDI affects GDP growth, both directly and also conditioning on trade liberalization that Ethiopia adopted in early 1990s. FDI affects economic growth of developing countries positively through transfer of capital, know-how, and technology. It increases activity not only in FDI beneficiary firms but also the effect can spread to other firms in the country and sectors through technology spillover, human and capital formation and increasing competition, thus raising productivity for the whole economy.

This paper undertakes a survey of theoretical considerations and an analysis of the experience of five African countries with interest rate liberalization. Despite substantial progress in monetary policy reforms, liberalization has only partially affected the level and variability of interest rates. Several factors—macroeconomic instability, oligopolistic financial markets, the absence of developed capital markets, as well as the sequencing of the liberalization programs and the asymmetric availability of information—explain the increase in the spread between lending and deposit rates as well as the rather inflexible pattern of interest rates during the transition to a market-based financial system.
