This study develops a parsimonious stable coefficient money demand model for Latvia for the period from 1996 till 2005. A single cointegrating vector between the real money balances, the gross domestic product, the long-term interest rate, and the rate of inflation is found. Our study...

We suggest to use information from the state register of personal cars as an alternative indicator of economic inequality in countries with a large share of shadow economy. We illustrate our approach using the Latvian pool of personal cars. Our main finding is that the extent of household...

This study develops a money demand model for Latvia for the period from 1996 to 2006. The model isspecified in the error-correction form based on a single co-integrating vector between real money balances, gross domestic product, long-term interest rate, and the rate of inflation. The model...

This study develops an error correction model for money demand in Latvia. The core of the model is a single cointegrating vector containing information about the long-run equilibrium between the real money balances, gross domestic product, and long-term interest rate. The model exhibits...
