Spatial gravity models for international trade: a panel analysis among OECD countries
Metulini, Rodolfo - European Regional Science Association - 2013
The Gravity Model is the workhorse for empirical studies in International Economies and it is commonly used in explaining the trade flow between countries. Recently, several studies have showed the importance of taking into account the spatial effect. Spatial Econometric techniques meet this...

The Relation Between Global Migration and Trade Networks
Sgrignoli, Paolo; Metulini, Rodolfo; Schiavo, Stefano; … - Economics, Markets, Institutions, IMT Lucca Institute … - 2013
In this paper we develop a methodology to analyze and compare multiple global networks. We focus our analysis on the relation between human migration and trade. First, we identify the subset of products for which the presence of a community of migrants significantly increases trade intensity. To...

The migration network effect on international trade
Metulini, Rodolfo; Sgrignoli, Paolo; Schiavo, Stefano; … - Economics, Markets, Institutions, IMT Lucca Institute … - 2014
This paper studies the relationship between migration and trade, with the aim of measuring both direct and indirect network effects. We analyze trade of diferentiated and homogeneous goods using an econometric approach inspired by spatial econometrics, proposing a new way to define country...

A spatial-filtering zero-inflated approach to the estimation of the gravity model of trade
Metulini, Rodolfo; Patuelli, Roberto; Griffith, Daniel A. - 2016
Nonlinear estimation of the gravity model with Poisson/negative binomial methods has become popular to model international trade flows, because it permits a better accounting for zero flows and extreme values in the distribution tail. Nevertheless, as trade flows are not independent from each...
