In this paper, we investigate whether or not nominal devaluation leads to real devaluation in Laos by using the ARDL bounds testing and the Granger causality test in a VECM framework. Our empirical evidence shows that nominal devaluation Granger causes real devaluation in short run and long run....

In this article, we investigate whether or not nominal devaluation leads to real devaluation in Laos by using autoregressive-distributed lag (ARDL) bounds testing and the Granger causality test in a vector error correction model (VECM) framework. Our empirical evidence shows that nominal...

The paper aims to investigate the inter-temporal causal relationship between banking sector development and poverty reduction in Bangladesh from 1976 to 2010. We have applied new methods using modern time series econometrics techniques based on simulations that are robust to the violation of...

This paper contributes to literature by investigating the relationship between energy utilization and output per capita in France using asymmetric causality test over the period 1960-2011. Our approach is based on bootstrap simulation method combined with leveraged corrections that provide...

This study aims to test the existence of J-curve phenomenon in Laos economy using quarterly data over the period of 1993–2010. The ARDL bounds testing approach to cointegration is used to examine short run as well as long run impact of real depreciation of Lao kip on Lao trade balance. The...

This study aims to test the existence of J-curve phenomenon in Laos’s economy using quarterly data over the period of 1993-2010. The ARDL bounds testing approach to cointegration is used to examine short run as well as long run impact of real depreciation of Lao kip on Lao trade balance. The...

The relationship between financial development and economic growth is not conclusive in existing economics literature. The aim of this paper is to test two hypotheses: ‘supply-leading’ hypothesis and ‘demand-following’ hypothesis, using Laos time series data. The ARDL bounds testing...
