The data was collected from the reports of the Bank of Algeria. With the adoption of three asset quality indicators (non-performing loans net of provisions to capital ratio NPL1 and the rate of non-performing loans ratio</em> <em>NPL2) according to the International Monetary Fund’s financial soundness indicators guide, and the indicator (the rate of non-performing loan provisions ratio NPLP) used by the Bank of Algeria), methods were used. Descriptive statistics to determine the mean, the maximum and minimum values of the indicators, and inferential statistics methods (t-test) to determine the differences between the average asset quality indicators of public banks and private banks. It was found that there are statistically significant differences for the (NPL1) indicator and the (NPL2) indicator between public banks and private banks and in favor of public banks, which means that they are more financially stable than their private counterparts, while there are no statistically significant differences for the NPLP indicator between public banks and private banks. As a conclusion, public and private banks have assets of acceptable quality.</em></p> 2024-06-30T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Abdelkader BADENE , بولرباح بولرباح http://journals.lagh-univ.dz/index.php/djei/article/view/3895 An Econometric Study of The Impact of Agricultural Exports and Imports on Real GDP in Algeria During the Period (1990-2022) 2024-07-09T14:46:48+00:00 Chafik BOUBERRIMA Bouberima.chafik@univ-setif.dz Yassine MOSTEFAI yassine.mostefai@univ-setif.dz <p><em>The study addressed the impact of agricultural imports and agricultural exports on Algeria's economic growth during the period 1990-2022 using Bounds testing approaches for the autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) methodology, where a standard model of real GDP was built as a function of the two independent variables (agricultural exports and agricultural imports), and the study concluded that there is a significant inverse relationship between agricultural exports and real GDP; which reflects the weak contribution of agricultural production in the formation of GDP, and a direct relationship between agricultural imports and GDP.</em></p> <p><em>The study found a dynamic short-term relationship where the speed of adjustment to equilibrium in the long run was 9.4% (about 10 years and 7 months).</em></p> 2024-06-30T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2024 شفيق بوبريمة , Yassine MOSTEFAI http://journals.lagh-univ.dz/index.php/djei/article/view/3896 Economic freedom in Algeria and its role in attracting foreign direct investment 2024-07-09T14:46:51+00:00 Anter KAHLAT anter.kahlat@univ-tebessa.dz Kamel CHERAYETT kamel.cherayett@univ-tebessa.dz <p>This study aims to highlight the role of economic freedom in attracting foreign direct investment (FDI) in Algeria. It utilizes four international indices that measure various aspects of economic freedom and assess the suitability of the business climate for investment by analyzing Algeria's performance in these indices. The study finds that the volume of FDI flows is positively correlated with the degree of economic freedom. This is because economic freedom provides a favorable, stimulating, and encouraging environment for investors and companies to invest their money in the economy. Algeria's performance has been weak in most of the indices, indicating that it suffers from a low level of economic freedom. This reflects an investment climate that is not qualified to business operations and discourages FDI, with restrictions that limit economic activity and the freedom of individuals and companies to conduct their business</p> 2024-06-30T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Anter KAHLAT , Kamel CHERAYETT http://journals.lagh-univ.dz/index.php/djei/article/view/3898 The level of outsourcing adoption in Algerian commanding institutions - an exploratory study in the Tlemcen region 2024-07-09T14:46:55+00:00 Amira TARI amiratari05@gmail.com <p><em>The study aims to know the level of dependence on outsourcing activity for the subcontractor.
