Purchasing Power Parity for Developing and Developed Countries : What can we Learn from Non-Stationary Panel Data Models?
Drine, Imed; Rault, Christophe - 2021
The aim of this paper is to apply recently developed panel cointegration techniques proposed by Pedroni (1999, 2004) and generalized by Banerjee and Carrion-i-Silvestre (2006) to examine the robustness of the PPP concept for a sample of 80 developed and developing countries. We find that strong...
