Private investment often goes through three phases under adjustment programs: initial contraction (a period of one to two years), a long pause (for three to five Years), and sustained recovery. The length of the investment pause is longer for low-income countries, and the cycle of public investment is of greater amplitude than the cycle of private investment. The paper discusses the roles of macroeconomic restraint, coordination failures, value of waiting, and lack of supportive infrastructure in generating these cycles of investment.

Over the past two decades, sub-Saharan Africa has lagged behind other regions in economic performance. The important overall indicators of performance, however, mask wide differences among countries. On the whole, countries that effectively implemented comprehensive adjustment and reform programs showed better results. Their experiences demonstrate that an expansion in private saving and investment is key to achieving gains in real per capita GDP. The four papers included in this publication provide a cross country analysis that assesses empirically the role of publlic policies in stimulating private saving and investment in the region in 1986-92 and describe the adjustment experiences of Ghana (1983-91), Senegal (1978-1993), and Uganda (1987-94).
