This study aims to identify the factors affecting the velocity of money in Syria during the period ( 1990-2010) based on the study and review of the monetary theories, and the analysis of some empirical studies that examined the velocity of money and its relation to macroeconomic variables. In addition to an econometric study focused on the relationship between the velocity of money in its narrow sense (M1) with the rate of inflation, per capita GDP, real exchange rate, financial evolution, interest rate and political instability, using ARDL methodology to test joint integration.

This research investigates the main factors (domestic and foreign) affecting inflation rate in Syria. Choosing the factors is based on the analysis of the major economic hypothesis concerning inflation determinants such as: excess purchasing power, cost push inflation, foreign inflation. By using OLS method, we find long run function, and it shows that the excess purchasing power has no significant effect on inflation rate. The error correction model shows that high cost rate has the biggest effect on inflation rate in the short run.
Saving is an important indicator of economic development as it is an element which finances domestic investment to achieve economic growth. The purpose of this research is to determine the variables that affect Syria’s national savings, by testing the expected variables, applying the unit root test on the time series of the variables, then using the Johansen cointegration test and an error correction model. The conclusion is that inflation and real economic growth positively affect national saving whereas national disposable income has a negative effect. The speed of adjustment is significant and 100% which indicates that there is cointegration between the variables of the study and national savings.
The purpose of this research is to study the determinants of the real exchange rate in Syria during the period 1990 to 2011. We employed Vector Auto Regression (VAR) model to study the long-term relationship between the real exchange rate and the f actors affecting it. Also we applied the Granger causality test to investigate the direction of the relationship between these variables. In addition, the Impulse Response Functions (IRF) and the Variance Decomposition to determine thecontribution of thesedeterminantsin the interpretation ofthe variance oftherealexchangerateof the Syrian pound. Eight possible determinants have been included in the empirical model: Foreign direct investment,realGDPgrowthrate,money supply, government consumption, trade openness,real interest rate, terms of trade, political stability indictor. The variables that have been found to have a long run relationship with the real exchange rate are: theforeign direct investment, real GDP growth rate and trade openness.EspeciallyForeign direct investment and Real GDP growth rate which have the greatest effect on the real exchange rate, while the trade openness had the least effect on the real exchange rate in Syria.Leavingthe other determinants with insignificant effect on real exchange rate in Syria.
This research studies inflation and its reasons in the Syrian economy using (1990-2010) data, also it studies imported inflation and its reflects on inflation rates, considering that the imported inflation is one of the major drivers of inflation in transitioning economies. We find that the imported inflation has a significant effect on inflation rate, and it leads – beside endogenous factors – to high inflation rates. Hence, there must be coordination among economic policies to achieve the balance between money market and commodities market, in addition to the optimal use of the potential sources, thus less import.
This study aims at studying the problem of unemployment in Syrian during the period 1991-2010. The starting point was showing the size of this problem by tracing the changes in unemployment rate and its age and educational structure. Then, some variables expected to affect unemployment rate were listed.
