The theoretical advancements in higher-order likelihood-based inference methods have been tremendous over the past two decades. The application of these methods in the applied literature however has been far from widespread. A critical barrier to adoption has likely been the computational...

Testing for first-order autocorrelation in small samples using the standard asymptotic test can be seriously misleading. Recent methods in likelihood asymptotics are used to derive more accurate p-value approximations for testing the autocorrelation parameter in a regression model. The methods...

Recent surges of capital inflows to mainland China have prompted the People's Bank of China (PBoC) to improve its monetary management techniques. Increasing sophistication in open market operations has allowed the PBoC to sterilise the impact of foreign exchange intervention on domestic...
