The secret of the rapid economic growth of Vietnam is the sustained improvement in fiscal and monetary policy.<\/p>\n<p>A Senior Economic Researcher at the Ethiopian Economists Association (EEA), Abule Mehari said the revised monetary policy will help to particularly control inflation.<\/p>\n<p>The ceiling for domestic credit is limited to 14 percent and this will limit the expenditure on assets and limit the circulation of cash thereby contributing towards reducing inflation, he elaborated.<\/p>\n<p>The economists further emphasized the need for accountability alongside implementing the new monetary policy.<\/p>\n<p>It is important to control and drain black-market while encouraging and recognizing loyal businesspersons, Abule added.<\/p>\n<p>The researcher also indicated that the government needs to give due attention to service providers and build their capacity, in addition to giving focusing on agriculture and manufacturing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/ethiopia\">Ethiopia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Ethiopia.
