The Bank of the Republic of Haiti (BRH) has published its Research Paper #7, a leading analytical contribution devoted to the study of the relationships between growth in monetary indicators, financial stability, and economic dynamics in the Haitian context.

This volume brings together four rigorous empirical studies, based on advanced econometric methods, that pose essential questions for public and private decision-makers, financial system stakeholders, and researchers :

• Is growth in the money supply consistent with growth in economic activity ?

• What factors influence foreign exchange gains in Haitian banks ?

• What are the structural causes of non-performing loans ?

• To what extent does monetary policy influence the economic performance of the banking system, through bank lending ?

As stated in the foreword, "the articles in this Paper are part of the ongoing discussions on the convergence of monetary and prudential policies."

A perspective based on the country's realities and concrete data to inform more coherent and better targeted public action.
