Consumer sentiment during the Covid-19 pandemic : the role of others' beliefs

Bui, Dzung; Dräger, Lena; Hayo, Bernd; Giang Hong Nghiem - 2021

sentiment. Conducting consumer surveys with randomized control trials (RCTs) in Thailand and Vietnam during the COVID-19 … asymmetric across our sample countries, as it shows opposite appropriateness ratings of the governments’ reaction in Vietnam and … only in Vietnam, where the sign of the effect suggests that the treatments are viewed as positive news. Moreover, consumer …

The deepening China Brazil economic relationship

Whalley, John; Medianu, Dana - 2010

We document key features of the deepening economic relationship between Brazil and China. This is evident from sharply increased bilateral trade and foreign direct investment flows and also from enhanced cohesion of negotiating positions in international fora. Data presented show bilateral trade...

General equilibrium trade policy analysis with structural gravity

Larch, Mario; Yotov, Yoto V. - 2016

The objective of this manuscript is to serve as a practical guide for evaluation of the general equilibrium (GE) effects of trade policy using the structural gravity model. We try to achieve this objective in four steps. First, we focus on the original Armington-CES gravity model, as a...

Pitfalls in the use of ad valorem equivalent representations of the trade impacts of domestic policies

Whalley, John (contributor) - 2005

Numerical simulation exercises to analyze the impacts of potential changes in non-tariff policies commonly use ad valorem equivalent tariff treatment even though estimated impacts using explicit model representation and ad valorem equivalent treatments will differ. The difficulty for modellers...

A simple method to quantify the ex-ante effects of "deep" trade liberalization and "hard" trade protection

Larch, Mario; Tan, Shawn W.; Yotov, Yoto - 2021

We propose a simple and flexible econometric approach to quantify ex-ante the "deep" impact of trade liberalization and the "hard" effects of protection with the empirical structural gravity model. Specifically, we argue that the difference between the estimates of border indicator variables for...

Gravity-model estimation with time-interval data : revisiting the impact of free trade agreements

Egger, Peter; Larch, Mario; Yotov, Yoto - 2020

We challenge the common practice of estimating gravity equations with time-interval data in order to capture dynamic-adjustment effects to trade-policy changes. Instead, we point to a series of advantages of using consecutive-year data recognizing dynamic-adjustment effects. Our analysis reveals...

Estimating the effects of nondiscriminatory trade policies within structural gravity models

Heid, Benedikt; Larch, Mario; Yotov, Yoto V. - 2017

We propose a simple method to identify the effects of unilateral and non-discriminatory trade policies on bilateral trade within a theoretically-consistent empirical gravity model. Specifically, we argue that structural gravity estimations should be performed with data that include not only...

News and views on public finances : a survey experiment

Behringer, Jan; Dräger, Lena; Dullien, Sebastian; … - 2024

We use novel German survey data to investigate how perceptions and information about public finances influence attitudes towards public debt and fiscal rules. On average, people strongly underestimate the debt-to-GDP ratio, overestimate the interest-to-tax-revenue ratio and favor a tighter...
