Motivated by the difficulty of ensuring gender equality and the chaotic state of democracy, we analyze the effects of gender political inclusion and democracy on environmental policy performance. The study uses a panel of 45 African countries over the period 2012-2018 and employs the method of...

The Basel II framework strictly defines the conditions under which financial institutions are authorized to accept real estate as collateral in order to decrease their credit risk. A widely used concept for its valuation is the hedonic approach. It assumes, that a property can be characterized...

Ce texte propose une analyse comparée des trajectoires de croissance d'entreprises implantées d'une part en Corse, de l'autre dans les départements semblables du pourtour méditerranéen. A travers cette étude il s'agit de mettre en évidence la spécificité d'une économie insulaire au...

In this paper, we develop a test to detect the presence of endogeneity in conditional quantiles. Our test is a Hausman-type test based on the distance between two estimators, of which one is consistent only under no endogeneity while the other is consistent regardless of the presence of...

Regression quantiles and their two-step modifications based on R-estimation of slope components of regression parameter are asymptotically equivalent and are very close numerically even for small sample sizes; their extreme versions even exactly coincide. Regarding that, we study their relations...

Cet article étudie l’effet des prix de vingt-trois catégories d’aliments sur la distribution de l’indice de masse corporelle (IMC) de la population adulte française, à l’aide des données de scanner du panel de ménages TNS-WorldPanel. Les résultats de régressions quantiles...

Recently, Bayesian solutions to the quantile regression problem, via the likeli-hood of a Skewed-Laplace distribution, have been proposed. These approaches are extended and applied to a family of dynamic conditional autoregressive quantile models. Popular Value at Risk models, used for risk...
