The money in utility model is reconsidered in the presence of endogenous labour and habits. With standard assumptions about preferences and a policy rule that sets the nominal interest rate by adjusting the growth rate of money, the model exhibits superneutrality in the steady state....

We consider the effects of inflation in a small open economy when expenditures on non-durables are more heavily financed with money than expenditures on durables. The distinctions between non-durables and durables, and asymmetric cash-in-advance constraints give rise to important dynamics.

If expenditures on non-durables are more heavily financed with money than expenditures on durables then after an increase in the inflation rate there will be capital deccumulation followed by capital accumulation. Money is superneutral in the long run.

This article uses cointegration and common trends techniques to investigate empirically the expectations hypothesis of the term structure of interest rates for the 10 new EU countries, along with Bulgaria and Romania. The empirical results support the expectations theory of the term structure...

This paper investigates the dependence structure between the real Canadian stock returns and the real USD/CAD exchange rate returns, using the Symmetrized Joe-Clayton (SJC) copula function. We estimate the SJC copula with monthly data over the period 1995:1 to 2006:12. Our results show...
