The effects of variance breaks on homogenous panel unit root tests
Herwartz, Helmut; Siedenburg, Florian - 2009
Noting that many economic variables display occasional shifts in their second order moments, we investigate the performance of homogenous panel unit root tests in the presence of permanent volatility shifts. It is shown that in this case, panel unit root tests derived under time invariant...

An empirical study on causes and consequences of inflation and inflation uncertainty
Hartmann, Matthias - 2012
Empirical study of causality between inflation, inflation uncertainty and other macroeconomicy quantities. Additionally, the issue of how to measure the unobservable inflation uncertainty is addressed.

State dependence in the finance-growth nexus : a functional coefficient approach
Herwartz, Helmut; Yabibal Mulualem Walle - 2013
Noting that "one size does not fit all" in the case of the finance-growth (FG) nexus, a growing body of literature has recently focused on uncovering economic conditions under which financial development could be beneficial (detrimental) to economic development. We look into these conditions by...

Time varying hierarchical archimedean copulae
Härdle, Wolfgang; Okhrin, Ostap; Okhrin, Yarema - 2010
There is increasing demand for models of time-varying and non-Gaussian dependencies for mul- tivariate time-series. Available models suffer from the curse of dimensionality or restrictive assumptions on the parameters and the distribution. A promising class of models are the hierarchical...

A new approach to bootstrap inference in functional coefficient models
Herwartz, Helmut (contributor); Fang, Xu (contributor) - 2007
We introduce a new, factor based bootstrap approach which is robust under heteroskedastic error terms for inference in functional coefficient models. Modeling the functional coefficient parametrically, the bootstrap approximation of an F statistic is shown to hold asymptotically. In simulation...

Simple nonparametric estimators for the bid-ask spread in the Roll model
Chen, Xiahong; Linton, Oliver; Schneeberger, Stefan; … - 2016
We propose new methods for estimating the bid-ask spread from observed transaction prices alone. Our methods are based on the empirical characteristic function instead of the sample autocovariance function like the method of Roll (1984). As in Roll (1984), we have a closed form expression for...

How global is FDI? : evidence from the analysis of Theil indices
Bickenbach, Frank; Liu, Wan-hsin; Nunnenkamp, Peter - 2015
It is open to question whether the intensified worldwide competition for FDI has reduced its traditionally strong concentration in a few large and relatively advanced host countries. We calculate and decompose Theil indices to track changes in absolute and relative concentration of FDI during...
