Motivation
Motivation
Feige (2003) proposes CSI = (FCC+FCD) /(M2+ FCC) as opposed to the common method: (DI) = (FCD)/(M2)
Despite the fact that currency substation have been studied a lot, only a few studies have been conducted.
Viseth(2001): CDI = FCD/M2, leaves out FCC and CBD Samreth(2010) uses FCD as a proxy for Foreign nominal balance in attempt to build the Money-in-service model, estimating elasticity of substitution
Girardin (2011) favors using cumulating net transfers from abroad as a proxy for stock of foreign currencies circulating in an economy.
Contribution
This period would capture the effects due to macroeconomic, political changes and especially those due to banking reform since 2001.
Evidences
US dollar has been the most preferred currency held in form of cash and
bank deposits.
Experience of the abolishment of money during period of 1975-79 Remaining weak confidence in domestic banks Huge foreign aids flow after the arrival of UNTAC in 1993
$1.7billion over 1991-93 came from UN peacekeeping force expenditure
In1995, the ratio of FCD/M2 was 56.4%, the highest among countries in the region, escalated to almost 75% in 2006(Viseth 2003).

Methodology
= 2
Methodology
= 0 + 1 , + 2 + 3
where t = 1980q1, , 1991q4
Second Stage: Use the parameter estimates to estimate the real money balance from 1994 to 2010
= 0 + 1 , + 2 + 3
Where t = 1992q1, , 2010q4
Expected Results
Variable , RGDP Inflation Expected sign of + -
Given the low remaining confidence in banking system and increasing inflow of foreign funds, high share of foreign real balances in providing liquidity services in Cambodia We, therefore, expected increasing CSR
