requirements that are not always obvious to the non-expert user. Bootstrap DEA is a significant development of the past decade …, which could be extended to test almost any hypothesis in bootstrap DEA. Moreover, it enhances the intuition behind bootstrap …

Since the introduction of bootstrap DEA there is a growing literature on applications which use this method, mainly for … hypothesis testing. It is therefore important to establish the consistency and evaluate the performance of bootstrap DEA. The few … coverage probabilities are not a good tool of assessment. In our study we evaluate the performance of bootstrap DEA using the …

A model of profits switches between four regimes with fixed probabilities; the rationally expected profits stream implies the stock market value. This efficient market model is not rejected by UK post-war time-series behaviour of either profits or the FTSE index.

We test for real interest rate convergence in the EU25 area. Our contribution is twofold: first, we account for the previously overlooked effects of structural breaks on real interest rate differentials. Second, we test for convergence against the EMU average. For the majority of our sample...

Tian and Dixon (2022) derived the variance of the estimator of cross-sectional distribution of durations (CSD). In this paper, we apply both Fieller's method and the Delta method to derive confidence interval of CSD using this variance formula. (CSD) is a new estimator derived by Dixon (2012)....

We propose a general form of vector Multiplicative Error Model (MEM) for the dynamics of duration, volume and price volatility. The vector MEM relaxes the two restrictions often imposed by previous empirical work in market microstructure research, by allowing interdependence among the variables...

We use available methods for testing macro models to evaluate a model of China over the period from Deng Xiaoping's reforms up until the crisis period. Bayesian ranking methods are heavily influenced by controversial priors on the degree of price/wage rigidity. When the overall models are tested...

In the context of an autoregressive panel data model with fixed effect, we examine the relationship between consistent parameter estimation and consistent model selection. Consistency in parameter estimation is achieved by using the tansformation of the fixed effect proposed by Lancaster (2002)....
