Aim of this study is to analyze the non-stationarity of real GDP levels using recently developed Carrion-i Silvestre et al. (2005) panel unit root test allowing different number of structural breaks in panel. For this purpose, this test is applied to panel data of per capita GDP of 20 high...

This study analyzes the nonstationarity of per capita real GDP for 11 Middle East and North Asia (MENA) Countries over the period 1970 to 2012 using two recently developed methods. SURADF and CADF panel unit root tests allowing for cross sectional dependence are used to determine whether output...

Abstract: In this study, the relationship between inflation and inflation uncertainty is analyzed using Granger causality tests with annual inflation series covering the time period 1923 to 2012 for Turkish Economy. Inflation uncertainty is measured by Exponential Generalized Autoregressive...

The goal of this study is to test the implication of Mankiv’s (1987) optimal seigniorage theory suggesting that in the long run higher tax rates are associated with higher inflation rates and higher nominal interest rates for Turkish Economy using time series dataset for the time period...

The aim of this study is to analyze both the linear and nonlinear co-integration relationship between Euro and U.S. Dollar exchange rates and stock price index with monthly time-series data covering the time period 1980 - 2013 for Turkish Economy. Linear co-integration test is analyzed by the...

The goal of this study is to test the implication of optimal seigniorage theory that in the long run higher tax rates are associated with higher inflation rates and higher nominal interest rates. For this purpose, we examine the long run relationship between nominal interest rates, inflation and...
