A critical question for policy makers in these economies is whether commodity windfalls influence potential output. Our analysis suggests that both actual and potential output move together with commodity terms of trade, but that actual output comoves twice as strongly as potential output. The weak commodity price outlook is estimated to subtract 1 to 2u percentage points from actual output growth annually on average during 2015-17. The forecast drag on potential output is about one-third of that for actual output.
