Abstract
An econometric model is estimated for the oil importing developing countries (OIDC as defined by the IMF) for the period 1960-89. The model explains exports, imports, export prices, GDP, investment, inflation, capital flows and the exchange rate. The model is used to simulate the effects of exogenous shocks (eg OECD GDP and interest rates, aid and oil prices) on OIDC. The growth properties of the model are Romerian rather than Solovian.
