The rapid diffusion of ATM and POS during the last decade may have changed money demand patterns; therefore, standard econometric analysis of money demand that do not account for these developments may suffer from a potentially serious omitted variable problem. This paper analyzes the effect of...

This paper assesses the relevance of national information in estimating the demand for euro-area M3 from three perspectives. First, we check whether national money demands can legitimately be aggregated. Second, we compare time-series and panel methods to estimate aggregate long-run...

This paper empirically analyses the stability of the narrow money demand function (M1) in Turkey for the period 1950-2002. As part of the IMF-sponsored stabilisation programme, Turkey has been pursuing base money targets. To ascertain whether this policy framework satisfies the necessary...

Money demand is probably one of the most extensively studied economic relationship in applied economics. While useful surveys of existing literature are available, much of the attention has focused on the US. However, a considerable number of papers have recently been produced dealing with the...
