Abstract

Among the factors that can frustrate a country's monetary policy is its economic environment. Indeed, the economic environment refers to all the external factors which influence the decisions of the authorities. This study follows this logic by analyzing the impact of the economic environment of the DRC on the effectiveness of the monetary policy of the BCC. The economic environment of the DRC is characterized by dollarization, exchange rate volatility, high public debt and balance of payments imbalance. To verify the impact of this environment on monetary policy, the study used the ARDL model without knowing which the study came to the conclusion that, in an environment characterized by the factors above, the Monetary policy is ineffective in stabilizing the general price level.
