Foreign aid and recipient countries' exports : does aid promote bilateral trade?

Nowak-Lehmann D., Felicitas; Martínez-Zarzoso, Inmaculada - 2010

This paper uses the gravity model of trade to investigate the link between foreign aid and exports in recipient countries. Most of the theoretical work emphasizes the negative impact of aid on recipient countries' exports primarily due to exchange rate appreciation, disregarding possible...

Aid and trade : a donor's perspective

Nowak-Lehmann D., Felicitas; Martínez-Zarzoso, Inmaculada - 2009

One reason donors provide foreign aid is to support their exports to aid-recipient countries. Time series data for Germany suggests an average return of between US$ 1.04 to US$ 1.50 for each US dollar of aid spent by Germany. Although this is well below previous estimates, the value is robust to...

Is Aid for Trade Effective? A Panel Quantile Regression Approach

Martínez-Zarzoso, Inmaculada - 2016

This paper investigates whether Aid for Trade (AfT) leads to greater exports in recipient countries. Using panel data … and panel quantile regression techniques, our results suggest that total AfT disbursements promote the export of goods and …

Gravity Models, Trade, Panel Cointegration, Common Factors, Structural Breaks, Cross-Section Dependence

Gomez-Herrera, Estrella - 2019

The gravity equation has been traditionally used to predict trade flows across countries. However, several problems related with its empirical application still remain unsolved. The unobserved heterogeneity, the presence of heteroskedasticity in trade data or the existence of zero flows, which...

Gravity model analysis : robust evidence from the Czech Republic and corruption matching

Paulus, Michal; Michalíková, Eva - 2014

The results generally confirm that Czech trade is oriented towards European countries and determined primarily by key economic factors of domestic and foreign GDP. The institutional variables remain largely insignificant, except corruption due tothe counterintuitive result that a higher...
