Trade, market integration and spatial price transmission on EU pork markets following Eastern enlargement

Holst, Carsten; von Cramon-Taubadel, Stephan - 2013

The accession of ten countries to the EU in May 2004, and of Bulgaria and Romania in January 2007, eliminated barriers to trade between old and new, and among new member states. We analyse the effects of this accession on the integration of pork markets in the EU. Our results show that the speed...

Distance and border effects on price transmission: A meta-analysis

Mengel, Caroline; Cramon-Taubadel, Stephan von - 2014

cointegration and price transmission. A border separating two markets reduces the probability of cointegration of price series by 23 …% compared with markets located in the same country. 1000 kilometers of distance reduces the probability of cointegration by 7 … and cointegration is most prevalent for barley. Price transmission is slowest in wheat markets. In peer reviewed studies …

Spatial price transmission and trade policies: New evidence for agricultural products from selected sub-Saharan African countries with high frequency data

Fricke, Susanne; Muratori, Lodovico - 2017

We assess the conjunctural impact of price insulating policies on spatial price transmission of maize, rice and wheat in Cameroon, Kenya and Tanzania in the period 2005-2015. We therefore separately estimate the impact of trade policies within two regimes of behaviour of the domestic price...

Gluschenko, Konstantin - 2002

A cross-sectional relationship between price dispersion among Russian regions and per capita income dispersion is used to measure the degree of integration between regional commodity markets. The sequence of cross-sectional estimations for each month of the period spanning 1992 through 2000...

Crime and prices

Gluschenko, Konstantin - 2005

The impact of organized crime on inter-regional price disparities in Russia is estimated for each year from 1992 to 2000, and over the panel of 1993-2000, using a sample of 70 Russian regions, and that of 50 regions from the European part of the country. The relationship between prices and crime...

Globalisation and market structure

Neary, J. Peter - 2002

This paper reviews some puzzling economic aspects of globalisation and argues that they cannot be satisfactorily addressed in perfectly or monopolistically competitive models. Drawing on recent work, a model of oligopoly in general equilibrium is sketched. The model ensures theoretical...

Endogenous mode of competition in general equilibrium

Neary, James Peter; Tharakan, Joe - 2005

This paper endogenises the extent of intra-sectoral competition in a multi-sectoral model of oligopoly in general equilibrium. Firms choose capacity followed by prices. If the benefits of capacity investment in a given sector are below a threshold level, the sector exhibits Bertrand behaviour,...

Cross-border mergers as instruments of comparative advantage

Neary, James Peter - 2004

A two-country model of oligopoly in general equilibrium is used to show how changes in market structure accompany the process of trade and capital market liberalisation. The model predicts that bilateral mergers in which low-cost firms buy out higher-cost foreign rivals are profitable under...

Competitive versus comparative advantage

Neary, J. Peter - 2002

I explore the interactions between comparative, competitive and absolute advantage in a two-country model of oligopoly in general equilibrium. Comparative advantage always determines the direction of trade, but both competitive and absolute advantage affect resource allocation, trade patterns...

Foreign direct investment and the single market

Neary, J. Peter - 2002

This paper extends the theory of multinational corporations, identifying three distinct influences of internal trade liberalisation by a group of countries on the level and pattern of inward foreign direct investment (FDI). First, the tariff-jumping motive encourages plant consolidation. Second,...
