The determinants of crude oil prices : evidence from ARDL and nonlinear ARDL approaches
Ben Salem, Leila; Nouira, Ridha; Jeguirim, Khaled; … - 2022
This paper is an innovative attempt to empirically investigate the determinants of crude oil prices. The main objective is to distinguish between short- and long-term effects of some covariates on oil prices. The autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) approach is applied to daily series spanning...

On the impact of oil prices on sectoral inflation : evidence from world's top oil exporters and importers
Ben Salem, Leila; Nouira, Ridha; Rault, Christophe - 2024
This paper investigates the impact of oil price variations on sectoral inflation for a sample of 10 top oil importing and exporting countries. Specifically, we analyze the effects of oil prices on the consumer price index using monthly data spanning the July 2009 to February 2021 period. Two...

Volatility spillover between oil prices and main exchange rates : evidence from a DCC-GARCH-connectedness approach
Ben Salem, Leila; Zayati, Montassar; Nouira, Ridha; … - 2024
This paper investigates the co-movements of oil prices and the exchange rates of 10 top oil-importing and oil-exporting countries. Firstly, we estimated the total static spillover index based on vector autoregressive (VAR) models. Secondly, we adopted the recent DCC-GARCH-CONNECTEDNESS approach...

A simple method to estimate large fixed effects models applied to wage determinants and matching
Mittag, Nikolas - 2016
Models with high dimensional sets of fixed effects are frequently used to examine, among others, linked employer-employee data, student outcomes and migration. Estimating these models is computationally difficult, so simplifying assumptions that are likely to cause bias are often invoked to make...
