This article reviews several hypotheses that aim at explaining the development of German merchandise exports. Based on cointegration estimation techniques, we examine different determinants for their ability to explain German exports during the period 1992-2016. The estimation results indicate...

This paper presents some more evidence on the empirical regularity known as `45-degree rule'. We estimate income and price elasticities of trade for 21 countries in a cointegration framework. More specifically, we adopt the autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) approach and the DOLS procedure to...

Ukrainian exports can be explained by standard demand theory in the long run. Using the Johansen procedure the data do not reject the hypothesis of a unit foreign-production elasticity of Ukrainian exports, which are rather price-elastic inputs for foreign producers. It is argued that due to...
