Trade liberalization and Poverty Numerous evaluations of the impact of trade liberalization on poverty World Bank GEP 2002 and 2004 (Dominique Van der Mensbrugghe with the LINKAGE model) William Cline 2004 Institute for International Economics, with the HRT model (Harrison Rutherford Tarr) Bernard Decaluwe et al., Laval University, PAUPER system and the PEP network Poverty & the WTO, T.W.Hertel and L.A.

  • 7. Trade liberalization and Poverty Analytical framework detailed by Winters et al. (2003) Channels of trade on poverty: 1. Price and availability of goods 2. Factor prices, income and employment 3. Government transfers 4. Incentives for investment and innovation that affects long term growth 5. External shocks and in particular changes in terms of trade 6. Short run risks and adjustment costs 1. Motivations 2. Data 3. Model 4. Illustrative results 5.

  • 8. How to assess the poverty impact of trade scenarios? Hertel and Reimer (2002): distinction between four methodologies: Cross country regression analysis Partial equilibrium and /or cost of living approaches General equilibrium analysis Micro-macro synthesis which links a model with micro-level data. 1. Motivations 2. Data 3. Model 4. Illustrative results 5. Next stepsINTERNATIONAL FOOD POLICY RESEARCH INSTITUTE
  • 9. Pros and Cons Cross country regression analysis Cannot offer a counterfactual analysis Cannot provide results on the impact of a policy shock on numerous economic variables. Partial equilibrium and /or cost of living approaches Income and interdependence effects omitted The cost of living analysis focuses on consumption effects General equilibrium analysis Micro-macro synthesis which links a model with micro-level data. 1. Motivations 2. Data 3. Model 4. Illustrative results 5. Next stepsINTERNATIONAL FOOD POLICY RESEARCH INSTITUTE
  • 10. CGE analysis CGE analysis are undertaken under Unique representative household hypothesis: The average income and total income are endogenous while the moments of the distribution are exogenous Several representative households hypothesis How many representative agents? What are the criteria of selection? Use of Poverty Elasticities (GEP, 2002 and 2004; Cline, 2004; UNECA, 2011) Mechanical effect of trade liberalization on poverty Do not identify who come out and come in poverty 1. Motivations 2. Data 3. Model 4. Illustrative results 5. Next stepsINTERNATIONAL FOOD POLICY RESEARCH INSTITUTE
  • 11. CGE-MS Analysis Top-down approach (Decaluwe et al., 2001) Idea: combination of theoretical consistency of a CGE model and the richness of information from a hhlds survey Implement few variables (Consumption prices, remuneration of productive factors) into an household survey Advantages: Modelling of household and labour market behaviour can be done separately from the economy-wide analysis. There is no need to reconcile household survey data with national accounts data. Functional forms: Sadoulet/ de Janvry vs. Dervis/de Melo /Robinson vs. Decaluwe No feedback effect: consistency between the micro- simulation and CGE results. If unemployment/employment or informal/formal sectors, selection problem 1. Motivations 2. Data 3. Model 4. Illustrative results 5. Next stepsINTERNATIONAL FOOD POLICY RESEARCH INSTITUTE
  • 12. CGE-MS Analysis Non Parametric approach (Vos and Sanchez, 2010) Re-weighting techniques to get micro-macro consistency Random selection of individuals Hand of God criticism Evaluation of macroeconomic policy is somewhat arbitrary Cannot identify the losers and the winners, and the accompanying policies to be put in place This method is path dependant. In other words, it could make a difference, given the cumulative effects, whether in an assumed sequence one would first simulate, say, changes in employment by occupational category (O) rather than by sector of employment (S).

  • 13. CGE-MS Analysis Behavioral microsimulation (Bourguignon et al., 2003; Lay, 2010) Combination of a CGE model and a behavioral model based on econometric techniques Lay, 2010, CGE model with modeling of both formal and informal sectors + econometric model with two stages: probit/logit +OLS Very detailed results but 1) Theoretical consistency ? In the CGE change in behavior comes from changes in relative prices In the behavioral model, it comes from individual characteristics (education, gender) 2) Validity of the estimation method? need for panel data 3) This method overemphasizes labor supply factors and neglects labor demand side factors.INTERNATIONAL FOOD POLICY RESEARCH INSTITUTE 1.

CGE-MS Analysis Savard (2003): top-down/bottom-up approach Micro macro iteration to solve the aggregation error. 1 Resolution of the CGE model 2 Implementation of macro variables (prices and employment) in a micro model 3 Calculation of new values for revenue variables by the micro model 4 Re injected in the macro model. Until convergence But convergence is not guaranteed And global procedure very demanding in terms of calculation time. Not feasible in a multi-country CGE 1. Motivations 2. Data 3. Model 4.

  • 15. CGE-MS Analysis Integrated approach Integration of a complete household survey in a CGE model Modeling of the behavior of each household in terms of consumption and factor supply Cockburn (2006) 3,800 households in the case of Nepal Cockburn, Corong and Cororaton (2008): 24,000 households in the case of Philippines Much more detailed view of how the impacts of trade liberalization vary over the whole income distribution. Results are very sensitive to the choice of the poverty line. Very demanding in terms of calculation time Needs simplifying assumptions for the CGE Not feasible in a multi-country CGE 1.

  • 16. Developing an integrated framework in a dynamic global CGE Hertel and Winters (2006) combines an evaluation of the poverty impact of the DDA trade reform (multi country CGE) with 12 country case studies based on single country CGEs coupled with microsimulation. Results of the multi-country CGE (export and imports prices/export and import volumes) are implemented in national CGE/MS analysis Consistency issue: reaction of the country is already in the multi-country CGE Different approaches to evaluate poverty impact: are results comparable? 1.

  • 17. Developing an integrated framework in a dynamic global CGE World model in order to understand differentiated impact in various countries Integrated model to keep consistency Better method than linking heterogeneous CGE models Diversity of situations inside each country: Assuming a representative agent is very challenging for a micro-founded approach Modeling the behavior of various households in terms of demand (e.g. non homothetic) and supply (e.g. labor supply, savings) Dynamic issues and the role of adjustment costs: Inter sectoral mobility rural / urban mobility Domestic transfers and international remittance Savings / investments and liquidity constraint 1.

Clustering Analysis Tractability Household account broken down into a number of relatively homogeneous household groups reflecting the socioeconomic characteristics Decaluwe et al, 1999: location (e.g. rural vs. urban); asset ownership (particularly land ownership in the rural areas and human capital in urban areas); characteristics of the head or main earner, main employment status, main occupation, main branch of industry and educational attainment, gender Importance of capturing the household heterogeneity really modeled (preferences, endowments) Clustering analysis taking into account: income per capita of the household (in logarithm), consumption structure (share of each GTAP product in total consumption) and income structure (share of capital, labor, self-employed labor and transfers in total income of the household). 1.

This constraint forces to replacenegative savings by intra household transfers. For each country included in the treatment, a summary report of the changes and results of cross entropy procedure is generated Final output: a GDX file with different mappings, disaggregated GTAP variables at the HH level: CVFM_HH, CFTRV_HH, CVDPA_HH, CVIPA_HH, CVDPM_HH, CVIPM_HH and other indicators: transferts matrix between institutions (Household categories, Government, Rest of the World) 1.
