This paper estimates the exchange market pressure (EMP) in four Central European countries (Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia) over the period 1993-2006. Therefore, it is one of very few studies focused on this region and the very first paper applying concurrently model-dependent as well...

This paper seeks to explore the impact of oil price shocks, real industrial production and interest rate on stock prices for six oil exporting countries and five oil importing countries using nonlinear autoregressive distributed lags (NARDL)model using monthly data for the period 1993 :...

We investigate the problem of testing the finiteness of moments for a class of semi-parametric time series encompassing many commonly used specifications. The existence of positive-power moments of the strictly stationary solution is characterized by the Moment Determining Function (MDF) of the...

We propose a portfolio construction method that accounts for the regime-dependent behavior of stocks, thereby impacting their expected returns. Using a hidden Markov model (HMM) and a regime-weighted least-squares approach, we estimate forward-looking regime-conditional factors. These factors...

In this study, we conducted a comprehensive analysis of the interplay between domestic investments, exports, and economic growth in Australia from 1972 to 2021. The Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) provided insights into short-term and long-term dynamics, highlighting how deviations from...

This study investigates the causal relationship between domestic investment and economic growth in Argentina over the period 1980-2022, utilizing cointegration analysis and a Vector Error Correction Model (VECM). The empirical results indicate that domestic investment has no significant...

While most African economies are primarily sandwiched with the seemingly unsurmountable task of attaining consistent economic growth and unhindered energy supply, the enormous threat posed by environmental degradation has further complicated the economic and environmental sustainability drive....

Against the backdrop of the new Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) decisions to maintain the status quo policy rates, we analyse the post-pandemic monetary policy stance in India. Using high-frequency data, the term structure of interest rate is analyzed incorporating monetary aggregates, fiscal...

We examine if the day-of-the-week effect is present in Bitcoin return series. The model specification in use accounts for conditional heteroscedasticity, which is captured in the form of a stochastic volatility process that allows for periodic time-varying parameters. We find periodicity in...

Multivariate GARCH models are in principle able to accommodate the features of the dynamic conditional correlations processes, although with the drawback, when the number of financial returns series considered increases, that the parameterizations entail too many parameters.In general, the...
