Zusammenfassung:The sources of macroeconomic fluctuations in sub-Saharan African are examined by comparing the CFA franc countries with the non-CFA franc countries. External shocks, especially terms of trade shocks, appear to have a greater influence on fluctuations of output and the real exchange rate in CFA franc countries.

Macroeconomic fluctuations in non-CFA franc countries are similar to those in other developing countries, particularly in Latin America
