National Bank of Ethiopia Quarterly Bulletin

National Bank of Ethiopia Quarterly Bulletin Fourth Quarter 2017/18 1 I. OVERVIEW  1.1. International Economic  Developments1    The global survey indicators continue to signal a steady growth momentum in the fourth quarter of 2017/18. The global composite output Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) excluding the euro area increased slightly further in June, reaching a four-month high, as the continued pick-up in the services sector more than compensated for the moderate decline in manufacturing. The composite output PMI in June decreased moderately in United States from May, while it strengthened in Japan and in United Kingdom. In emerging market economies, the composite output PMI increased in China and India, while it slowed in Russia and Brazil. Global inflation edged up in May and annual consumer price inflation in the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries increased to 2.6 percent, driven by energy prices while food prices slowed slightly. Excluding food and energy prices, annual inflation in OECD

1 European Central Bank monthly bulletin of 5/2018 increased marginally to 2 percent. Inflation is expected to continue rising in the near term following the pick-up in oil prices and the gradual decline in spare capacity. In United States, real GDP expanded at an annualized rate of 2 percent in the third quarter of 2017/18. Despite the slight deceleration in activity, the near-term outlook remains strong, supported by solid fundamentals as well as the large and procyclical fiscal expansion. The labour market continued to generate jobs at a solid pace and indicators continue to point to tightness, while wage growth remains moderate. Annual headline consumer price index (CPI) inflation reached its highest level since 2012, rising to 2.9 percent in June, while increasing to 2.3 percent when food and energy are excluded.

In China, real GDP grew at 6.7 percent in year-on-year terms in the fourth quarter of 2017/18, in line with market expectations of a slowdown in economic activity. The ongoing structural deleveraging campaign is affecting investment patterns. Infrastructure investment in particular fell as financing channels tightened, although investment in manufacturing and real estate. Chinese equities and foreign exchange markets have I.

National Bank of Ethiopia Quarterly Bulletin 2 Fourth Quarter 2017/18 1.2. Macroeconomic Developments in Ethiopia  A. Inflation                                                      Headline inflation increased to 4.0 percent in the fourth quarter of 2017/18 from 2.9 percent registered in the preceding quarter. This was attributed wholly to the increase in food & non-alcoholic beverages inflation by 2.3 percentage points, more than offsetting the marginal fall in non-food inflation. However, it was lower than the 4.8 percent headline inflation recorded last year same quarter due to the 3.1 percentage point decline in food & non-alcoholic beverages inflation in contrast with 1.7 percentage point increase in non-food inflation.. As a result, food & non-alcoholic beverages and non-food inflations contributed 2.9 and 1.1 percent, respectively, to the headline inflation registered during the review quarter. B. Monetary Developments  Broad money supply (M2) which stood at Birr 740.6 billion at the end of fourth quarter of 2017/18, showed 29.2 percent growth over same quarter of last fiscal year. The annual growth in broad money was largely attributed to 24.3 percent expansion in domestic credit and 3.5 percent increase in net foreign assets (NFA). The increase in domestic credit resulted from 19.4 percent upsurge in credit to central government and 15.6 percent credit to non-central government. Government’s measure to raise CBE’s capital by issuing non-interest bearing bond attributed to the expansion of credit to the central government. Likewise, reserve money reached Birr 174.2 billion at the end of fourth quarter of 2017/18, depicting 19.1 percent growth over last year same quarter. While currency in circulation increased by 19.8 percent, banks deposits’ at NBE rose by 17.8 percent. C. Interest rate   In fourth quarter of 2017/18, average savings deposit rose from 5.4 percent to 8.0 percent and lending rates increased from 12.75 percent to 13.5 percent over the same quarter last year. Similarly, weighted average time deposit rate went up by 2.58 percentage points on annual basis. Weighted average yield on T-bills been under pressure recently, reflecting both fears of an escalation of trade tensions and a slowdown in growth. In Japan, economic indicators suggest that positive growth in activity in the fourth quarter of 2017/18, recovering from the first contraction of GDP in two years. However, the outlook is surrounded by growing uncertainty. The intense rainfall in western Japan in early July is expected to affect infrastructure, as several large manufacturers had to shut down their plants. In addition, it is expected that a further escalation of trade tensions could significantly hit the Japanese economy, especially if tariffs are increased on imports of cars and their spare parts. Annual headline CPI inflation remained stable at 0.7 percent in June, yet underlying inflation remained low, with CPI excluding food and energy at 0 percent. In Euro area, Real GDP increased by 0.4 percent, quarter on quarter, in the third quarter of 2017/18 driven by domestic demand and changes in inventories. On the other hand, net trade had a small dampening effect on GDP growth. Overall, survey indicators suggest ongoing robust growth will continue in the future. Annual HICP inflation rose to 2 percent in June, up from 1.9 percent in May, reflecting higher contributions from energy, food and non￾energy industrial goods price inflation, which offset a lower contribution from services price inflation. In the United Kingdom, GDP rebounded in the fourth quarter of 2017/18, but short-term indicators for the export-oriented manufacturing sector signal a less optimistic outlook. This is due to the heightened uncertainty, particularly regarding the outcome of the negotiations on the country’s withdrawal from membership of the European Union in March 2019. In U.K., inflation stabilized at 2.4 percent in May, unchanged from April, as movements in the exchange rate have helped offset recent increases in oil prices.

Their branches increased to 532 from 492 a year ago. About 53.6 percent of the total branches were located in Addis Ababa. Total capital of the insurance companies reached Birr 5.5 billion, of which about 72.1 percent was that of private insurance companies. 3. Microfinance Institutions   There were 37 micro-finance institutions (MFIs) operating in the country as at end fourth quarter of 2017/18. These institutions mobilized Birr 33.2 billion in saving deposit about 26.2 percent higher than last year same period. Their total outstanding credit also increased 38.9 percent to about Birr 45 billion, suggesting the growing role of the institutions in poverty reduction and wealth creation among low income groups in both rural and urban areas. Their total asset also grew by 35.7 percent and reached Birr 67.3 billion at the end of June 2018. E. External Sector and Foreign Exchange Developments  1. External Sector Development   During fourth quarter of 2017/18, total merchandise export proceeds (including electricity) amounted to USD 752.5 million, showing a 16.9 percent decline vis￾à-vis last year same quarter. This poor performance was ascribed to slowdown in earnings from export of coffee (17.4 percent), oilseeds (31.4 percent), gold (89.6 percent), flower (2.1 percent), live animals (1.3 percent) and other exports (31.1 percent) due to lower export volume, prices or both. Meanwhile, total merchandise import bill stood at USD 3.6 billion, showing a 10.9 percent contraction owing to decline in import values of capital goods (35.2 percent), consumer goods (1.3 percent) and

National Bank of Ethiopia Quarterly Bulletin 6 Fourth Quarter 2017/18 depreciated by 17.3 percent vis-à-vis last year same quarter. F. Federal Government Fiscal Operations  Total revenue and grants of the federal government grew by 15.1 percent annually in the fourth quarter on 2017/18 and amounted to Birr 46.6 billion while federal government expenditure declined by 19.4 percent to Birr 63.4 billion during the same period. Consequently, the overall fiscal deficit balance (including grants) stood at Birr 16.8 billion compared to Birr 23.8 billion a year earlier. G. Investment   A total of 697 investment projects having investment capital of about Birr 13 billion became operational during the fourth quarter of 2017/18. The number of investment projects and investment capital were sharply increased by 25.1 percent and 103.4 percent respectively. semi-finished goods (13.2 percent). In contrast, import values of fuel rose 47.6 percent and that of raw materials 30.6 percent. The average price of Brent crude oil, used as a point of reference for international oil price, surged 47.7 percent to USD 74.4 per barrel during the fourth quarter of 2017/18 compared with USD 50.2 last year same quarter. Accordingly, domestic fuel retail prices were adjusted upwards and the average retail prices of fuel in Addis Ababa increased by 10.7 percent to Birr 17.91 per liter from Birr 16.17 per liter. The upsurge in retail prices was attributed to higher prices of jet fuel (55.2 percent) while the prices of other petroleum products remained constant. During the fourth quarter of 2017/18, total transfer receipts declined by 7.1 percent annually to USD 1.8 billion due to 1.8 percent and 39.4 percent reduction in private and official transfers, respectively. Total transfer payments dropped by 59.7 percent due to 69.2 percent and 19.7 percent decrease in private transfers and official transfer payments, respectively. Thus, the current account balance (including official transfers) registered USD 1.1 billion deficit during the fourth quarter of 2017/18, compared with USD 1.4 billion deficit a year ago. In contrast, capital account recorded USD 1.4 billion surplus, which was 22.9 percent lower than that of last year same period. The decline in surplus was attributed to the lower net official long term capital (25.6 percent), net other public long term capital (21.3 percent), foreign direct investment (20.4 percent) and private sector long term capital (32.1 percent) . As a result, the overall balance of payments registered USD 123 million surplus compared to the USD 525.4 million surplus a year ago. 2. Exchange Rate Development   Weighted average official exchange rate of the Birr showed 18.9 percent annual depreciation and reached Birr 27.2493/USD at end of the fourth quarter of 2017/18. In the same period, the REERI of the Birr depreciated by 5.9 percent on annual basis mainly due to 15 percent devaluation of the Birr in October 2017. Similarly, the NEERI

National Bank of Ethiopia Quarterly Bulletin Fourth Quarter 2017/18 7 depreciated by 17.3 percent vis-à-vis last year same quarter. F. Federal Government Fiscal Operations  Total revenue and grants of the federal government grew by 15.1 percent annually in the fourth quarter on 2017/18 and amounted to Birr 46.6 billion while federal government expenditure declined by 19.4 percent to Birr 63.4 billion during the same period. Consequently, the overall fiscal deficit balance (including grants) stood at Birr 16.8 billion compared to Birr 23.8 billion a year earlier. G. Investment   A total of 697 investment projects having investment capital of about Birr 13 billion became operational during the fourth quarter of 2017/18. The number of investment projects and investment capital were sharply increased by 25.1 percent and 103.4 percent respectively.

National Bank of Ethiopia Quarterly Bulletin 12 Fourth Quarter 2017/18 2.2. Electric Power Generation Electric power generated during the fourth quarter of 2017/18 was 3.5 billion KWH, about 6.5 percent higher than a year ago. This was attributed to 8.6 percent increase in production from hydropower though energy generation from wind sources dropped 33.7 percent. Of the total energy generated, about 96.9 percent was from hydropower and 3.1 percent from wind. The contribution of thermal power was insignificant at 0.04 percent (Table 2.5).

National Bank of Ethiopia Quarterly Bulletin Fourth Quarter 2017/18 13 2.2. Electric Power Generation Electric power generated during the fourth quarter of 2017/18 was 3.5 billion KWH, about 6.5 percent higher than a year ago. This was attributed to 8.6 percent increase in production from hydropower though energy generation from wind sources dropped 33.7 percent. Of the total energy generated, about 96.9 percent was from hydropower and 3.1 percent from wind. The contribution of thermal power was insignificant at 0.04 percent (Table 2.5). By system of generation, virtually all power was generated through inter￾connected system (ICS)3 while self￾contained system (SCS)4 had minimal share (Table 2.6).

National Bank of Ethiopia Quarterly Bulletin 16 Fourth Quarter 2017/18 III. Quarterly Price Developments  3.1 Developments in National CPI  During the fourth quarter of 2017/18, headline inflation soared to 4.0 percent from 2.9 percent in the preceding quarter but slowed down from 4.8 percent a year ago. The rise in quarterly headline inflation was attributed wholly to a 2.3 percentage point increase in food & non￾alcoholic beverages inflation, against a slight drop in non-food inflation. On annual bases, headline inflation dropped 0.8 percentage points solely due to 3.1 percentage point reduction in food & non￾alcoholic beverages inflation despite 1.7 percentage point increase in non-food inflation. Hence, food & non-alcoholic beverages and non-food inflation contributed 2.9 and 1.1 percent, respectively, to the headline inflation registered during the review quarter (Table 3.1 and Fig 3.1). In the same period, in quarter terms, food & non-alcoholic beverages inflation increased to 5.4 percent from 3.1 percent, driven by higher CPI inflation for bread & cereals (10.9 percentage point), non￾alcoholic beverages (8.5 percentage point), meat (6.6 percentage point), oil & fats (3.4 percentage point), milk, cheese & egg (2.5 percentage point) and sugar jam, honey & chocolate (0.8 percentage point). On the other hand, price inflation of vegetables dropped 7.6 percentage point, food products not elsewhere classified 7.8 percentage point and fruit 4.3 percentage point (Table 3.2). Non-food inflation decelerated marginally to 2.4 percent from 2.6 percent over the same period. This was due to the lower inflation for alcoholic beverages and tobacco (9.5 percentage point) housing, restaurant & hotel (0.1 percentage points) and health service (2.4 percentage point). In contrast, CPI inflation rose for housing, water, electricity, gas & other fuel (1.4 percentage point), clothing & footwear (0.2 percentage point), furnishings, household equipment & routine maintenance of houses (0.7 percentage point), transport (5.9 percentage point) and communication (0.1 percentage point) (Table 3.3).

National Bank of Ethiopia Quarterly Bulletin 20 Fourth Quarter 2017/18 In the same period, regional average food & non-alcoholic beverage inflation increased to 5.1 percent from 1.6 percent in the previous quarter. However, it was lower than the 6.3 percent regional average food & non-alcoholic beverages inflation registered last year same quarter. Of the regional states, Gambella, Tigray, Amhara, Harari and Somali regional states exhibited higher food & non-alcoholic beverages inflation. Food & non-alcoholic beverages inflation was the highest in Gambella (10.1 percent), and the lowest (-0.6 percent) in Afar, resulting in 10.7 percentage point margin. The variation in food & non￾alcoholic beverages inflation captured by standard deviation remained unchanged at 2.8 percent relative to the preceding quarter (Table 3.4). The regional average non-food inflation scaled down to 1.1 percent from 4.7 percent in the previous quarter although it was higher than that of last year. Benishangul Gumuz, Tigray, Addis Ababa, Gambella, Amhara, SNNP and Oromia witnessed highest non-food inflation yet it was (4.6 percent) in Benishangul Gumuz, while the lowest (-6.7 percent) was in Somali, indicating 11.3 percentage point margin. Consequently, the variation in non-food inflation measured by the standard deviation declined to 3.3 percent from 5.8 percent in preceding quarter (Table 3.4).

National Bank of Ethiopia Quarterly Bulletin 26 Fourth Quarter 2017/18 4.2. Developments in Reserve Money and Monetary Ratio  Reserve money reached Birr 174.2 billion in the fourth quarter of 2017/18, showing a 19.1 percent year-on-year growth, while excess reserves of commercial banks marginally increased by 0.1 percent. The money multiplier, measured by both the ratio of broad money to reserve money and narrow money to reserve money tended to rise year-on-year and decline on quarterly basis. The ratio of broad money to reserve money increased by 8.5 percent over the corresponding quarter of last year. Commercial banks’ strong performance in mobilizing time and savings deposit contributed to the rise in money multiplier (Table 4.3).

The purchaser of these bonds has long been solely the Commercial Bank of Ethiopia (CBE). During the quarter under review, CBE purchased corporate bonds worth Birr 17.7 billion. Of the total corporate bond issued the share of Ethiopian Electric Power Corporation (EEPCo) and Addis Ababa City Administration was 71.75 percent while the rest (28.25 percent) was attributed to the Ethiopian Rail way Corporation and regional governments. At the end of June 2018, the stock of corporate bonds held by CBE stood at Birr 291.43 billion, of which 84.25 percent was claims on public enterprises and the remaining balance claims on regional governments (Table 4.15). Corporate bonds issued by EEPCO accounted for 59.68 percent of the total corporate bonds issued by public enterprises and 74.2 percent of the entire outstanding corporate bond balance.

On quarterly basis, however, REERI saw a 6.2 percent appreciation as the effect of devaluation died out. The appreciation of REER on quarterly basis was ascribed to the rising of domestic inflation relative to that of Ethiopia’s major trading partners.

Similarly, NEERI depreciated by 17.3 percent vis-à-vis last year same quarter, owing to relative weakening of the Birr against US dollar mainly spurred by the 15 percent devaluation of the Birr in October 2017. However, the REERI appreciated by 4.7 percent on quarterly terms related to strengthening of USD against some major currencies in the recent quarters (Table 5.15).

About 97.3 percent of the total projects with 98.3 percent of total investment capital went to Addis Ababa, and 1.4 percent of the projects having 0.6 percent of total capital to Afar followed by Oromia and Tigray. This pattern was similar to the regions’ job creation (Table 7.3).

National Bank of Ethiopia Quarterly Bulletin Fourth Quarter 2017/18 87 VIII. International Economic Developments  8.1 Overview of the World Economy7 In the fourth quarter of 2017/18 global survey indicators continue to signal a steady growth momentum. The global composite output Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) excluding the euro area increased slightly further in June, reaching a four-month high, as the continued pick-up in the services sector more than compensated for the moderate decline in manufacturing. The composite output PMI in June decreased moderately in the United States from May, while it strengthened in Japan and in the United Kingdom. In emerging market economies, the composite output PMI increased in June in China and India, while it slowed in Russia and Brazil. In US Real GDP expanded at an annualized rate of 2% in the fourth quarter of 2017/18. Despite the slight deceleration in activity, the near-term US outlook remains strong, supported by solid fundamentals as well as the large and procyclical fiscal expansion. In particular, consumer confidence is at

Anecdotal evidence from regional manufacturing surveys suggest that US businesses are concerned about the impact of a possible further escalation of trade tensions, which may affect their investment spending. The labour market continued to generate jobs at a solid pace and indicators continue to point to tightness, while wage growth remains moderate. In China, GDP growth moderated slightly in the second quarter of 2017/18 while financial markets recorded downward pressures. Real GDP grew at 6.7 percent in year-on-year terms in the fourth quarter of 2017/18, in line with market expectations of a slowdown in economic activity. The ongoing structural deleveraging campaign is affecting investment patterns. Infrastructure investment in particular fell as financing channels tightened, although investment in manufacturing and real estate. Chinese equities and foreign exchange markets have been under pressure recently, reflecting both fears of an escalation of trade tensions and a slowdown in growth.

National Bank of Ethiopia Quarterly Bulletin 88 Fourth Quarter 2017/18 In Japan, economic indicators suggest that positive growth in activity in the fourth quarter of 2017/18, recovering from the first contraction of GDP in two years. However, the outlook is surrounded by growing uncertainty. The intense rainfall in western Japan in early July is expected to affect infrastructure, as several large manufacturers had to shut down their plants. In addition, it is expected that a further escalation of trade tensions could significantly hit the Japanese economy, especially if tariffs are increased on imports of cars and their spare parts, which account for around a third of Japan’s exports to the United States. In Euro area, the solid and broad-based growth pattern is expected to continue. Real GDP increased by 0.4 percent, quarter on quarter, in the third quarter of 2017/18 driven by domestic demand and changes in inventories. On the other hand, net trade had a small dampening effect on GDP growth. Overall, survey indicators suggest ongoing robust growth will continue in the future. In the United Kingdom, The latest PMI and monthly GDP numbers suggest a rebound in UK GDP in the fourth quarter of 2017/18, but short-term indicators for the export￾oriented manufacturing sector signal a less optimistic outlook. This is due to the heightened uncertainty, particularly regarding the outcome of the negotiations on the country’s withdrawal from membership of the European Union in March 2019. 8.2. Inflation Developments  Global inflation edged up in May. Annual consumer price inflation in the countries of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) increased to 2.6 percent in May. The rise was driven by energy prices, while food prices slowed slightly. Excluding food and energy prices, OECD annual inflation increased marginally to 2 percent. Inflation is expected to continue rising in the near term following the pick-up in oil prices and the gradual decline in spare capacity. In United States, annual headline consumer price index (CPI) inflation reached its highest level since 2012, rising to 2.9 percent in June, while increasing to 2.3 percent when food and energy are excluded. In Japan, annual headline CPI inflation remained stable at 0.7 percent in June, yet

National Bank of Ethiopia Quarterly Bulletin Fourth Quarter 2017/18 89 underlying inflation remained low, with CPI excluding food and energy at 0 percent. In U.K., inflation stabilized at 2.4 percent in May, unchanged from April, as movements in the exchange rate have helped offset recent increases in oil prices. In Euro area annual HICP inflation rose to 2.0 percent in June, up from 1.9 percent in May. This increase reflected higher contributions from energy, food and non￾energy industrial goods price inflation, which offset a lower contribution from services price inflation. 8.3 Commodity Price  Oil prices have remained broadly stable amid some volatility. The effect on oil prices from the OPEC on 22 June of its intention to increase supply has been relatively muted. While markets had anticipated an output rise of one million barrels per day, capacity constraints in many OPEC countries suggest a smaller rise in oil supply in the near term. Non-oil commodity prices have decreased by around 8 percent since mid-June, with food prices falling by 8 percent and metal prices dropping by 9 percent. Food prices fell owing to ample supplies on the back of favorable weather conditions in North America and concerns about rising protectionist threats also affecting food commodities, particularly soybeans. The fall in metal prices can be partly explained by lower demand in China and concerns about a possible trade war. 8.4 Exchange Rate Developments  In the foreign exchange markets, the euro broadly appreciated in trade weighted terms.   During the fourth quarter of 2017/18 the effective exchange rate of the euro, measured against the currencies of 38 of the euro area’s strengthened by 1.6 percent. In bilateral terms, the euro remained broadly unchanged against the US dollar, while it appreciated vis-à-vis all other major currencies, including the Chinese renminbi (by 5.4 percent), the pound sterling (by 1.3%) and the Japanese yen (by 0.5 percent), amid the ongoing economic expansion in the euro area. Similarly, the euro strengthened vis-à-vis the currencies of the other non-euro area EU Member States.

National Bank of Ethiopia Quarterly Bulletin 90 Fourth Quarter 2017/18 8.5. Impact of Global Economic Development on Ethiopian Economy  During the fourth quarter of F.Y. 2017/18, global economic activities indicators pointed to a sustained momentum. The global composite output Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI), which measures economic health of the manufacturing sector, increased supported by expansion witnessed in advanced and emerging economies. This has positively affected the performance of Ethiopian’s major export items not to deteriorate further below 16.9 percent in value. During same period, global inflation has picked up supported by the increase in energy prices while food prices slowed slightly. The decline in food prices in the global market due to excess supply could contribute to the fall in export revenue of Ethiopia by affecting major agricultural export items such as coffee and live￾animals. However, the increase in energy prices could increase the country’s fuel import bills to have depressing effect on the current account deficit.
