Remittances and the Dutch disease: evidence from Georgia

Katsuya Ito

Post-Communist Economies, 2019, vol. 31, issue 4, 500-506

Abstract: In this article, using the VECM model we attempt to empirically examine the Dutch disease effect of remittances in Georgia. The analyses are based on quarterly data covering the years 2000–2016. It is found that an inflow of remittances leads to an appreciation of the real effective exchange rate in the long run, whereas it has the reverse effect in the short run.
