This paper focuses on the relationship between exchange rates, openness and economic growth in the DRC. Its objectives are to identify the influence of the exchange rate on external openness and that of openness on economic growth in the DRC during the period from 1990 to 2020. The econometric method made possible thanks to the documentary technique and the VAR model made it possible to achieve these objectives. In short, it follows from the analyzes that the exchange rate policy applied in the DRC to increase openness is not effective and the policy of openness used in the DRC to increase economic growth is not effective over the entire period. period under study in the DRC

Abstract: Ce papier présente une analyse théorique et empirique de la relation taux de change, ouverture et croissance économique combinée avec le niveau de la qualité des institutions de l'économie congolaise. Elle a comme objectifs de dégager l'influence du taux de change sur l'ouverture extérieure et celle de l'ouverture sur la croissance économique en RDC durant la période de 1990 à 2020. La méthode économétrique rendue possible grâce à la technique documentaire et au modèle VAR a permis d'atteindre ces objectifs. En somme, il découle des analyses que la politique de taux de change appliquée en RDC pour hausser l'ouverture n'est pas efficace et la politique de l'ouverture utilisée en RDC pour augmenter la croissance économique n'est pas efficace sur toute la période sous étude en RDC.
