We use a panel data set of 193 countries over 1990-2017 period, by employ the Seemingly unrelated regression (SUR), three stage least squares regression (3SLS), dynamic model two-step generalized method of moments and two-step system generalized method of moments approach to investigate the...

In this paper we examine the nexus between growth and development using a recursive structural equation system which, to the best of our knowledge, has not been tried so far to examine such relationships in the Indian context. Another novel feature of our study is that we use district-level data...

There are two basic approaches to identifying the determinants of capital flows, viz. the traditional and the portfolio (or modern) approach. Although most econometric models have by now forsaken the traditional capital flow equations in favour of modelling financial linkages via arbitrage type...

The validity of the key behavioral parameters used in the calibration process of computable general equilibrium (CGE) models remains a debated issue in the CGE literature. CGE modelers prefer to borrow from the handful of estimates available in the literature rather than estimating these...

This paper attempts to look at the effectiveness of public provision of pollution information in providing incentives for firms to control pollution. This is achieved by examining the effect of release of pollution information on the market value of firms. The paper conducts a value event study...

Starting with the Treaty of Rome (1957), the European Union adopted common policies to promote “harmonious economic development and balanced expansion.” The paper investigates how successful such policies were, by examining whether there was economic convergence of the real per capita GDP in...
