Description of Sources and Transformation""; ""REFERENCES""This paper analyzes Zimbabwe's export performance in recent years and identifies the factors that could improve export performance, from both a quantitative and qualitative perspective. Improving export performance is critical to a turnaround in Zimbabwe's economic situation. The growth rate of total exports declined dramatically in the early 2000s, following a large real appreciation of the currency and the introduction of the fast-track land reform program. An important finding of the paper is that policies that reduce (eliminate) the parallel market premium and lower ethnic tensions would be key to promoting export growth.IMF Working Papers; Working Paper ;No. 2006/028ExportsZimbabweEconometric modelsInternational tradeEconometric modelsCurrencyimfDevelopment Planning and Policy: Trade PolicyimfExchange ratesimfExport performanceimfExports and ImportsimfExportsimfFactor MovementimfForeign Exchange PolicyimfForeign ExchangeimfForeign exchangeimfFormal and Informal SectorsimfInstitutional ArrangementsimfInternational economicsimfInternational tradeimfModels of Trade with Imperfect Competition and Scale EconomiesimfMultiple currency practicesimfMultiple or Simultaneous Equation Models: Models with Panel DataimfNatural Resources and Domestic and International ConflictsimfReal exchange ratesimfShadow EconomyimfTrade: GeneralimfZimbabweimfExportsEconometric models.International tradeEconometric models.CurrencyDevelopment Planning and Policy: Trade PolicyExchange ratesExport performanceExports and ImportsExportsFactor MovementForeign Exchange PolicyForeign ExchangeForeign exchangeFormal and Informal SectorsInstitutional ArrangementsInternational economicsInternational tradeModels of Trade with Imperfect Competition and Scale EconomiesMultiple currency practicesMultiple or Simultaneous Equation Models: Models with Panel DataNatural Resources and Domestic and International ConflictsReal exchange ratesShadow EconomyTrade: GeneralMuñoz Sònia1815672International Monetary Fund.African Dept.DcWaIMFBOOK9910956788703321Zimbabwe's Export Performance4372052UNINA
