The study analyzes the relationship among domestic debt-inflation-domestic debt cost-external debt-external dependency-crisis in the Ottoman Empire and in the Republic of Turkey. The study discusses that the monetary based explanations have not been satisfactory for the period of 1830-2005...

The paper aims to investigate the economic relationship between inflation and domestic debt. In countries that experience high inflation, the inflationary process fed on increasing costs of domestic debt. As a result, the increasing debt to GDP ratios led these countries to borrow at higher...

This study is aimed mainly to examine the possible existence of a relationship between the nominal interest rate and the inflation rate in developing countries (Argentina, Brazil, Malaysia, Mexico, Korea and Turkey) coming up from a common nonlinear trend between both series. Evidence is first...

The purpose of this study is to investigate empirically the presence of an equilibrium relationship between the logarithms of Indian exports and imports between 1949/50 and 2004/2005, using the unit-root, cointegration approach. To ascertain robustness, exports and imports measured in current...

The main objective of this paper is to assess how mutual information as a measure of global dependence between stock markets and macroeconomic factors can overcome some of the weaknesses of the traditional linear approaches commonly used in this context. One of the advantages of mutual...

This paper investigates the impact of public and private investment on Côte d’Ivoire’s economic performance (GDP growth) over the period 1969-2001, using an autoregressive-distributed lag (ARDL) Error Correction Model (ECM). The results shows that in the short run an increase in private...

In this multi-country study, sample countries selected from each segment of development levels areanalysed in terms of demography, urbanization, economic policy, geographical location, natural resources, human capital, income distribution and several other factors. In a former study by the...

This paper examines the empirical relationships between exports growth and economic performance for western Africa countries using a non-linear Markov Switching VAR model in contrast with previous linear time series studies. We could not find causality from exports to GDP and vice versa in...

This paper investigates the empirical saving-investment relationships for Côte d’Ivoire and Ghana over the period 1960–1998, using a Markov Switching VAR model. We find regime-dependent causality from saving to investment in Côte d’Ivoire but not in Ghana. In terms of Feldstein and...
