Assessing the impact of AIDS on the growth path of the Malawian economy

A modified Solow growth model is used to simulate the impact of the AIDS epidemic on output capacity and other key macroeconomic aggregates in Malawi. Comparing a counterfactual no-AIDS scenario to ‘medium’ and ‘extreme’ AIDS projections suggests that average real GDP growth over the 1985–2010 perio...

description A modified Solow growth model is used to simulate the impact of the AIDS epidemic on output capacity and other key macroeconomic aggregates in Malawi. Comparing a counterfactual no-AIDS scenario to ‘medium’ and ‘extreme’ AIDS projections suggests that average real GDP growth over the 1985–2010 period will be 0.2–0.3 (1.2–1.5) percentage points lower in the medium (extreme) case, relative to the no-AIDS case. As a result, the size of the economy by the year 2010 will be reduced from a real GDP of 5.03 billion (constant 1985) Kwacha without AIDS to 4.81–4.77 (3.80–3.46) billion Kwacha in the medium (extreme) scenario.
