Theory often specifies a particular cointegrating vector amongst integrated variables and it is often required that one test for a unit root in the known cointegrating vector. It is common to simply employ a univariate test for a unit root, but this does not take into account all available...

A number of tests have been suggested for the test of the null of no cointegration. Under this null, correlations are spurious in the sense of Granger and Newbold (1974) and Phillips (1986). We examine a set of models local to the null of no cointegration and derive tests with optimality...

Whilst point estimates for mean reversion in real exchange rates suggest reasonable (but long) half lives to shocks, it still remains uncomfortable that models without any mean reversion at all are often compatible with individual country pair data from the floating period. Studies with data...

In situations where theory specifies a potential cointegrating vector amongst integrated variables, it is often required that one test for a unit root in the constructed cointegrating vector. Although it is common to simply employ a univariate test for a unit root for this test, it is known that...
