Macroeconomic Adjustment in a Highly Dollarized Economy : The Case of Cambodia.

Cambodia became dollarized suddenly in the early 1990s, as a result of massive dollar inflows stemming from a postconflict situation.

520 3 |a Cambodia became dollarized suddenly in the early 1990s, as a result of massive dollar inflows stemming from a postconflict situation. Considering that the amount of dollars in circulation is unusually high, we attempt to estimate the true degree of dollarization empirically.

The paper concludes that this policy mix has been appropriate for Cambodia's circumstances.
