Relations between economic variables are often characterized by a situation where initial conditions and the past realizations of economic variables matter. I.e. past (transient) exogenous disturbances and past states of the economic system do have an influence on the current economic relations....

Der Zusammenhang zwischen ökonomischen Größen kennzeichnet sich oftmals dadurch, dass die Ausgangssituation und vergangene Werte von Bedeutung sind. Vergangene (temporäre) exogene Störungen und Zustände des Systems haben einen Einfluss auf die gegenwärtigen Zusammenhänge. Typische...

Traditional specifications of export equations incorporate foreign demand as a demand pull factor and the real exchange rate as a relative price variable. However, such standard export equations have failed to explain the export performance of euro area countries during the crisis period. In...

A non-linear model is applied where suddenly strong spurts of exports occur when changes of the exchange rate go beyond a zone of inaction. We call the latter a 'play' area - analogous to mechanical play and implement an algorithm describing path-dependent play-hysteresis into a regression...
