This paper investigates institutional factors affecting the performance of genuine savings (GS), which is often used in assessing sustainable development, adopting a model of autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity in mean. We pay particular attention to the contribution of institutions to...

This paper investigates the effect of shadow price regarding weak sustainability indicators based on the genuine savings indicator. We analyse the forest resources considering positive externalities of natural capital, as the approximation from market rent alone would under-estimate the true...

In this paper, we consider how genuine savings would be altered if the adjustment costs of capitals are taken into account in the stylized capitalresource model. It is shown that, in order to derive the modified genuine savings, through shadow prices, the original genuine savings have to be...

This paper investigates the path of genuine saving (GS) based on the perspectives of average, trend and stability. The theoretical basis of GS can be seen in several studies, such as Arrow et al. (2003) and Dasgupta (2004); its database has been developed by the World Bank. With these...
