The rate of mean-reversion in a country's real exchange rate (RER) is a key indicator to consider when discussing exchange rate policies in any country. In practice, this rate - known as the half-life - is commonly calculated using price aggregates, such as the consumer price index (CPI). I...

Traditional specifications of export equations incorporate foreign demand as a demand pull factor and the real exchange rate as a relative price variable. However, such standard export equations have failed to explain the export performance of euro area countries during the crisis period. In...

Purpose - In this study, it is analyzed the validity of the exchange rate pass-through (ERPT) effect and the effect of interest rate and output level on the inflation rate (IR) in Brazil, Russia, India, China and Turkey (BRIC-T) between the years 1995Q1 and 2022Q4. Design/methodology/approach -...

The objective of this paper is to test whether the complete pass-through of exchange rate exists when there are almost no transaction costs and in the environment of competitive market. In general, the literature claims that the pass-through of exchange rate is incomplete due to imperfect...

Using median-unbiased estimation based on Augmented-Dickey-Fuller (ADF) regressions, recent research has questioned the validity of Rogoff's "remarkable consensus" of 3-5 year half-lives of deviations from PPP. The confidence intervals of these half-life estimates, however, are extremely wide,...

This paper proposes a robust estimation procedure, the bounded influence estimate (BIE), that is robust against departure from the conditional normality of the autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (ARCH) models to describe the behavior of exchange rates. First, the BIE identifies the...

Impulse response analysis is typically conducted by fitting an autoregression model to a time series and calculating the moving average coefficients implied by the estimated autoregression model. If the autoregression specification is incorrect for the series, this approach may fail to capture...

Numerous studies have been devoted to estimating and testing of moment condition models. Most of the current literature assumes that structural parameters are either fixed or changed abruptly. This paper considers the estimating and testing for smooth structural changes in moment condition...

This paper analyses the long-memory properties of a high-frequency financial time series dataset. It focuses on temporal aggregation and other features of the data, and how they might affect the degree of dependence of the series. Fractional integration or I(d) models are estimated with a...
