(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Rzeszowskiego, 2015) Kamba-Kibatshi, Marcel
The Democratic Republic of Congo, as mentioned here, covers an area of 345 2,410 square miles, has a population of 72 million men and women, sharing borders with nine other countries, and has huge natural resources which place it among the countries most potentially rich of the planet. At the time of the change of regime policy of 1997, the Congolese monetary system was tested by many failures, among them the multiplicity of monetary areas and exchange rates, the loss of confidence in the national currency due to the persistent values internal and external instability, excessive economy dollarization and the shortage of money in the banking system symbols. To deal with these shortcomings, the new Government of the Democratic Republic of Congo had decided from May 1997 onwards, to entrust the Central Bank mission to conduct a monetary reform including the change of the currency unit. This work examines the difficulties of monetary policy of the Democratic Republic of the Congo in the context of dollarization of the banking system and institutional weakness. An empirical analysis confirms that the Central Bank of the Congo is hardly able to curb inflation, despite a rapid responsiveness to inflationary shocks. In this context, monetary policy role is to provide the real sector the amount of currency required for the expansion of economic activities without causing inflationary or deflationary skid. However, in the context Congolese, the search for well-being through monetary policy poses problem having regard on the one hand, to the objectives assigned formally to the monetary policy to ensure the financing of the country's economic development and promote the stability of domestic prices as well as the maintenance of the balance of external payments, and on the other hand to the deterioration of the socio-economic situation of the Democratic Republic of Congo in recent years. Indeed, the results of monetary policy in terms of rate of inflation attest the inefficiency of the mechanisms of transmission of monetary policy on the real variables of the Congolese economy, notably the stability of prices.
