This study examines the effect of independent exchange rate pursuits and reserve holdings, relative to other determinants, on global export performance of WAMZ countries. The regression results show that exports originating from the Zone to the rest of the world are influenced positively by...

To study the elasticities of import demand function, we build a heterogeneous panel with data of 40 counties and use panel unit root tests (Im, Pesaran and Shin, 1997) and panel cointegration tests (Pedroni, forthcoming). We test our model with two previously used activity variables: GDP and GDP...

The main aim of this paper is to know if the real exchange rate misalignment can be consider like a cause of sub Saharan African export’s dependence against raw materials, and, for, this purpose, we have acess, in panel data, the effect of cfa franc misalignment on the manufactured exports of...

Starting with a reduced form derived from standard urban economics theory, this paper estimates the possible job-shortfall across UK and EU regions using a time-space dynamic panel data model with a Spatial Moving Average Random Effects (SMA-RE) structure of the disturbances. The paper provides...
