Comparison of Norway's CA and NFA in the Model and DataExporters of exhaustible resources have historically exhibited higher income volatility than other economies, suggesting a heightened role for precautionary savings. This paper uses a parameterized small open economy model to quantify the role of precautionary savings in economies with exhaustible resources, when the only source of uncertainty is the price of the exhaustible resource. Results show that the precautionary motive can generate sizable external sector savings. When aggregated over the sample countries, precautionary savings in 2006 add up to 3.2 percent of GDP. The quantitative importance of the precautionary motive varies considerably across the sample countries and is driven primarily by the weight of exhaustible resource revenues in future income. The parameterized model fares well at capturing current account balances in both cross-section and time-series data.IMF Working Papers; Working Paper ;No. 2009/033Saving and investmentMathematical modelsNonrenewable natural resourcesEconometric modelsBalance of paymentsimfConsumptionimfCurrent Account AdjustmentimfCurrent account balanceimfCurrent accountimfEconomicsimfEnvironmental managementimfExports and ImportsimfInternational economicsimfMacroeconomicsimfMacroeconomics: ConsumptionimfNatural ResourcesimfNatural resourcesimfNon-renewable resourcesimfNonrenewable Resources and Conservation: GeneralimfPrecautionary savingsimfSaving and investmentimfSavingimfShort-term Capital MovementsimfWealthimfNorwayimfSaving and investmentMathematical models.Nonrenewable natural resourcesEconometric models.Balance of paymentsConsumptionCurrent Account AdjustmentCurrent account balanceCurrent accountEconomicsEnvironmental managementExports and ImportsInternational economicsMacroeconomicsMacroeconomics: ConsumptionNatural ResourcesNatural resourcesNon-renewable resourcesNonrenewable Resources and Conservation: GeneralPrecautionary savingsSaving and investmentSavingShort-term Capital MovementsWealth332.024;332.02401Bems Rudolfs1816035de Carvalho Filho Irineu1815919DcWaIMFBOOK9910970760103321Current Account and Precautionary Savings for Exporters of Exhaustible Resources4372871UNINA
