Modern services, real exchange rate and economic growth

Year: 2024

Abstract: ABSTRACT This paper explores the effects of changes in the real exchange rate (RER) level on the performance of the modern services sector. The hypothesis is that sustaining a competitive RER contributes to improving the performance of modern services. To do so, we estimated econometric models based on the Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) for a sample of 24 countries between 2000 and 2014. The results suggest that the RER positively affects the modern services sector in terms of output, employment, and a structural change index.
