The Brazilian regional development funds and economic growth : a spatial panel approach
Cravo, Túlio A.; Resende, Guilherme Mendes - 2015
The regional development policy in Brazil materializes mainly in the regional development funds for the north-east (FNE), the north (FNO), and the centre-west (FCO), in which more than EUR36 billion was invested between 2004 and 2010. This paper examines the economic effect of these regional...

Regional convergence in Russia : estimating a neoclassical growth model
Lehmann, Hartmut; Oščepkov, Aleksej Ju.; Silvagni, … - 2020
In this paper, we study convergence in per capita gross regional products across Russian regions in the period from … model to analyze the regional convergence process in the Russian case. We also take into account possible spatial effects … and do a series of other robustness checks. Our main estimates establish a convergence rate of around 2% per year. While …

Sectoral diversification as insurance against economic instability
Kluge, Jan - 2015
This paper examines the extent to which sectoral diversification can act as an insurance mechanism against fluctuations in regional gross value added growth rates. I apply portfolio theory to the growth-instability properties of German districts. Furthermore, I define a comprehensive...

Cross-sectional space-time modeling using ARNN(p, n) processes
Kakamu, Kazuhiko; Polasek, Wolfgang - 2007
We suggest a new class of cross-sectional space-time models based on local AR models and nearest neighbors using distances between observations. For the estimation we use a tightness prior for prediction of regional GDP forecasts. We extend the model to the model with exogenous variable model...
