This paper empirically studies the relationship between economic growth and inflation for a selected group of emerging market economies. We applied panel linear estimators, namely, static fixed effects and a dynamic GMM estimator to a sample of 31 countries. Our preliminary results point to the...

This paper estimates a nonlinear asymmetric dynamics model in the threshold panel data framework to study the extent to which the quality of governance, investment, and financial stability affect the impact of external debt on economic growth in 47 African countries from 2002 to 2022. As a...

As digital technologies rapidly transform global economies, the digital financial inclusion index (DFII) has emerged as a critical driver of economic growth, particularly in developing regions. In the context of China, where regional economic disparities persist, the expansion of digital...

The West African Monetary Zone (WAMZ)'s economy has faced persistent fiscal deficits over the years, and this has affected other macroeconomic indicators like inflation. This study empirically examines the effect of fiscal deficit on inflation dynamics in the WAMZ. It employs the Panel Smooth...

We examine the effect of rising temperatures on regional economic development, using annual sub-national data for over 1500 regions in 152 countries between 1990 and 2017. In a panel setting with region- and country-year fixed effects, we find no evidence of a homogeneous or heterogeneous effect...

The paper examines the relationship between health and economic growth using a dynamic panel with threshold effect and endogeneity. The study uses a sample of 136 countries over the period of 1965-2015 and the results indicate that the relationship between health and economic growth is...
