Abstract

[eng] The aim of this paper is to study empirically the influence of the growth of public debt on a set of macroeconomic variables, especially the interest rate. The approach used is that of vectorial time series analysis and not that of classical econometrics. We show that an acceleration of the growth of public debt has pernicious effects on the current account balance though an increase in national income. Hence in order to finance this an increase in the interest rate must occur. [fre] L'objet de ce travail est d'étudier empiriquement l'influence de la croissance de la dette publique sur un ensemble de grandeurs macroéconomiques, plus particulièrement le taux d'intérêt. L'approche utilisée fait appel à l'analyse des séries chronologiques vectorielles et diffère donc de l'économétrie classique. On montre qu'une accélération de la croissance de la dette publique a des effets défavorables sur la balance des paiements courants par l'intermédiaire d'une augmentation induite du revenu. Le besoin de financement provoque alors une hausse du taux d'intérêt.
