Many countries are still struggling to increase the collection of domestic revenue. Financial inclusion has the potential to raise massive income in any country. As people become more financially integrated and their income rises over time, their tax payments to the government may rise as well....

The main objective of this paper is to develop and validate a methodology to select the most important key performance indicators from the balanced scorecard. The methodology uses and validates the implicit systemic hypothesis in the balanced scorecard model, together with a qualitative and...

What are the drivers of business cycle fluctuations? And how many are there? By documenting strong and predictable co-movement of real variables during the business cycle in a sample of advanced economies, we argue that most business cycle fluctuations a re d riven b y o ne major factor. The...

The goal of this paper is to recognize the dynamics of financial integration across the European stock markets over the last two decades. We investigate two groups of markets: (1) three developed European markets in the U.K., France, and Germany; and (2) three emerging Central and Eastern...

We develop the principal component analysis (PCA) approach to systematic liquidity measurement by introducing moving and expanding estimation windows. We evaluatethese methods along with traditional estimation techniques (full sample PCA and market average) in terms of ability to explain (1)...

A method is proposed to compute a time-varying correlation matrix between asset prices. The method has a natural geometric interpretation in terms of dynamic principal components analysis. The paper illustrates, via Monte Carlo experiments and data analysis, the potential of the method in...
