| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aimed at investigating the conditions of dollarization in Myanmar and to clarify issues to resolve the dollarization. First, we obtained time series data on the foreign currency deposits (FCDs) which indicated a considerable degree of dollarization in the country at least in the early 2000s. Second, we conducted a survey of 240 import/export firms as samples and examined their motivation for holding FCDs. The survey data indicated that FCDs were held for the purpose of unofficial currency trading among firms. Therefore, it is thought that improving the banks’official customer dealing is conducive to the elimination of the dollarization in Myanmar.
