o:28420 Adekvatnost deviznih rezervi Republike Srbije i faktori koji utiču na njihovo formiranje Serbia's foreign exchange reserve adequacy and the factors influencing their accumulation sr Rezime: U radu se analizira adekvatnost nivoa deviznih rezervi Republike Srbije (RS) i faktori koji utiču na njihovo akumuliranje, uz primenu ekonometrijskog modela. U analizu su uključene relevantne promenjive, kao što su bruto domaći proizvod (BDP), realni efektivni devizni kurs (REDK) i monetarni agregat M2/BDP. Pomoću testova jediničnog korena, utvrđeno je da su varijable integrisane reda I(1). Test kointegracije je otkrio postojanje jedne kointegracione jednačine. Regresioni model je ocenjen korišćenjem kvartalnih podataka, za period od prvog kvartala 2002, zaključno sa trećim kvartalom 2020. Ocenjeni koeficijenti kointegracionih parametara pokazuju da naglašen uticaj na akumuliranje deviznih rezervi ima privredna aktivnost aproksimirana pomoću BDP-a, a zatim, pritisak na apresijaciju dinara (aproksimiran pomoću indeksa REDK) i rast novčane mase (ocenjen preko monetarnog agregata M2/BDP). U analizi se, sem konvencionalnih, ukazuje i na specifične faktore i njihov uticaj na formiranje deviznih rezervi RS. Rezultati istraživanja pokazuju da su devizne rezerve RS veće od nivoa koji preporučuju standardni kriterijumi optimalnosti. Nalazi u radu, takođe, sugerišu da je potrebno uzeti u obzir dividende, koje ostvaruju strani investitori u RS, kao i određene segmente portfolio investicija, prilikom utvrđivanja specifičnog pokazatelja adekvatnog nivoa deviznih rezervi. Abstract: In this paper, the adequacy of foreign exchange reserves in Serbia and the factors that influence their accumulation is analyzed by means of an econometric model. The relevant variables, such as the gross domestic product (GDP), the real effective exchange rate (REER) and monetary aggregate M2/GDP are included in the analysis. The unit root tests applied in the research led to the conclusion that the timeseries were integrated of the order I(1). The cointegration test revealed that there was one cointegration equation. The regression model was estimated using the quarterly data for the period from 2002q1 to 2020q3. The estimated cointegration coefficients showed that the economic activity approximated in terms of the gross domestic product (GDP) had a significant influence on foreign exchange reserves accumulation, which is only followed by appreciation pressure on the dinar (approximated by the REER index) and money supply growth (estimated through the monetary aggregate M2/GDP). In addition to conventional factors, the analysis also points out specific factors and their impact on foreign exchange reserve accumulation in Serbia. The results of the research study show that foreign exchange reserves in Serbia are greater than the levels suggested by standard optimality criteria. The findings also suggest that it is necessary to take into account the dividends realized by foreign investors, as well as some segments of portfolio investment in assessing the specific indicator of the adequate level of foreign exchange reserves.
