The aim of this paper is to analyse the empirical fulfilment of the PPP in Australia (1977-2004). Previous research focuses on the presence of structural breaks and fails to find any support to the PPP (Darne and Hoarau, 2008, Henry and Olekalns, 2002). In contrast, we find that the PPP...

The aim of this paper is to provide additional evidence on the purchasing power parity empirical fulfilment in a pool of OECD countries. We apply the Harvey et al. (2008) linearity test and the Kruse (2011) nonlinear unit root test. The results point to the fact that the purchasing power parity...

In this paper we contribute to the literature on determining the real exchange rate by using models that incorporate structural breaks and nonlinearities. We estimate cointegrated dynamic ordinary least squares regressions and quantile regressions. We find that the estimated coefficients for the...
