- W3123463178 abstract "One of the greatest problems facing many Sub-Saharan African countries today is the amount of their external indebtedness. The external debt problem is becoming more acute for a number of reasons. First, the size of the debt relative to the size of the economy is enormous and can lead not only to capital flight but it also discourages private investment. Secondly, debt servicing payments form a significant proportion of the annual export earnings. Meeting debt servicing obligations eats significantly into whatever other facilities can be provided to improve the welfare of the citizens and therefore has macroeconomic implications. This raises the question of whether a country can grow fast enough to maintain debt obligations and maintain adequate domestic investment. Thirdly, the burden of debt for a large number of Sub-Saharan countries threatens not only the execution but also the prospects of success of adjustment programmes being embarked upon. Fourth, the current system of debt management has a dire macroeconomic impact on an economy's output. This assumes a significant magnitude when the amount of time expended by chief executives of debtor countries who are involved in the various phases of rescheduling negotiations is considered. It has been claimed that the debt payments have neither been the fundamental cause of Africa's low growth nor the cause of the difficulties. The debt problem is nevertheless becoming more acute as the proportion of debt payments not eligible for rescheduling is rising rapidly. The implication of this is clear as discussed previously. In addition the costs of debt transfer from scheduled debt repayments into lower manageable actual payments is becoming costly. The external indebtedness of African countries is an obstacle to the restoration of the conditions needed for growth (World Debt tables 1987—88, p. xix). Sub-Saharan African countries fall into different groups when the issue of debt is discussed. The two most significant groups are the debt-distressed countries and the heavily indebted ones. Experiences do, however, differ not only amongst the groups but also between countries in the same group. It is in this light that an explanation of the debt crisis must necessarily be country specific. Two West African countries Cote d'Ivoire and Nigeria belong to the group of seventeen heavily indebted countries. The focus of the present work is on Nigeria." @default.
