Abstract

Most less developed countries (LDC's) encounter a shortage of foreign exchange when they attempt to accelerate their rate of economic growth.111 The basic support for this assertion is from H. Chenery and A. Strout, “Foreign Assistance and Economic Development.” American Economic Review (September, 1966), pp. 679-731. Harry Johnson has disputed the significance of foreign exchange as a separate factor in development. See Economic Politics Toward Less Developed Countries (Washington: Brooking Institution, 1967). pp. 52-64. In response to such a shortage, many countries interfere with the market allocations of foreign exchange to assure that “priority” demands for exchange will be met. The service of private foreign capital usually does not have a priority. Consequently, dividends on private foreign direct investment are often limited in one way or another by LDC's.© 1970 JIBS.
