Causal Inference by Independent Component Analysis with Applications to Micro- and Macroeconomic Data

Moneta, Alessio; Entner, Doris; Hoyer, Patrik; Coad, Alex - Wirtschaftswissenschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2010

Structural vector-autoregressive models are potentially very useful tools for guiding both macro- and microeconomic policy. In this paper, we present a recently developed method for exploiting non-Gaussianity in the data for estimating such models, with the aim of capturing the causal structure...

Growth Processes of Italian Manufacturing Firms

Coad, Alex; Rao, Rekha; Tamagni, Federico - Wirtschaftswissenschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2008

We apply a reduced-form vector autoregression model to analyze the growth processes of Italian manufacturing firms, 1989-1997. We focus in particular on lead-lag associations describing the coevolution of employment growth, sales growth, growth of profits and labour productivity growth....

The exponential age distribution and the Pareto firm size distribution

Coad, Alex - Wirtschaftswissenschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2008

Recent work drawing on data for large and small firms has shown a Pareto distribution of firm size. We mix a Gibrat-type growth process among incumbents with an exponential distribution of firm's age, to obtain the empirical Pareto distribution.

Firm Growth and Scaling of Growth Rate Variance in Multiplant Firms

Coad, Alex - Wirtschaftswissenschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2007

While Gibrat's Law assumes that growth rate variance is independent of size, empirical work has usually found a negative relationship between growth rate variance and ï¬rm growth. Using data on French manufacturing ï¬rms, we observe a relatively low, but statistically signiï¬cant, negative...

Firm Growth and Productivity Growth: Evidence from a Panel VAR

Coad, Alex; Broekel, Tom - Wirtschaftswissenschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2007

This paper offers new insights into the processes of ï¬rm growth by applying a reduced-form vector autoregression (VAR) model to longitudinal panel data on French manufacturing ï¬rms. We observe the co-evolution of key variables such as growth of employment, sales, and gross operating...

Nachhaltiges Wachstum durch Entkopplung vom Umweltverbrauch?

Pasche, Markus - Wirtschaftswissenschaftliche Fakultät, … - 1999

Es wird gezeigt, daß unter plausiblen Annahmen im Rahmen der bekannten technologischen Möglichkeiten (``technologisches Regime'') keine dauerhafte Entkopplung des Wachstums vom Umweltverbrauch, d.h. kein nachhaltiges Wachstum möglich ist. Das zentrale Argument ist, daß im Zuge des...
