Public regulations can increase economic growth by correcting market faults and decrease growth by consuming resources … between growth an regulation. The relationship is possibly non-linear with some level of regulation being optimal. We estimate … the relation by a fixed effect non-linear panel data regression model using a new semi-parametric estimator. The outcome …

We use a combination of nonparametric (NP) and instrumental variable … semiparametric (SNP-IV) methods to obtain inflation thresholds for the United States. The results suggest that the relationship … between growth and inflation is hump shaped—that higher levels of inflation reduce growth more. Our results consistently show …
