This paper illustrates the usefulness of resampling based methods in the context of multiple (simultaneous) tests, with emphasis on econometric applications. Economic theory often suggests joint (or simultaneous) hypotheses on econometric models; consequently, the problem of evaluating joint...

La microfinance se développe progressivement dans la région du Moyen-Orient et d’Afrique du Nord (MENA) à travers des institutions de microfinance (IMF) très variées. L’objectif de la plupart de ces IMF est de concilier la performance sociale (PS) qui vise à réduire la pauvreté et la...

We discuss statistical inference problems associated with identification and testability in econometrics, and we emphasize the common nature of the two issues. After reviewing the relevant statistical notions, we consider in turn inference in nonparametric models and recent developments on...

This study develops a hybrid model to integrate climate risks into Côte d'Ivoire’s economic policy, drawing on the work of economists like Keynes, Ostrom, Stiglitz, Sen, and Nordhaus. The model combines decentralized governance, climate risk externalities, and capacity building to address the...

In this paper, we propose to solve the circular packing problem (CPP) whose objective is to pack n different circles C(i) of known radius r(i) , i = 1, …, n into the smallest containing circle C. The objective is to determine the radius r of C as well as the coordinates (x(i) , y(i)) of the...

Le crédit interentreprises est un des canaux de transmission du risque de défaillance des entreprises. Les impayés sur effets de commerce révèlent les interdépendances entre secteurs et leur potentiel de contagion, dès lors que les montants en jeu sont importants.

Nous proposons dans cet article une analyse critique du classement mondial des universités publié chaque année par l’Institut de l’Enseignement supérieur de l’Université Jiao Tong de Shangaï et plus connu sous le nom de « classement de Shangaï ». Après avoir rappelé comment le...

In this article we will determine the confidence regions for the parameters of a distribution and versions of some tests without using tables that contain centiles.

The main purpose of this paper is to determine the macro-prudential indicators of financial strength that can be used under supervision of the banking system in CEMAC. More specifically, we start from a set of indicators listed in the literature on macro-prudential supervision, and identify...

In this study, we identifie a small number of indicators of macro-prudential supervision important to monitoring of the banking’s system. We use the theory of Markov stochastic processes to measure the systemic risk of CEMAC by calculating the degree of fragility of system and we determine the...
