In this paper we compare the patterns of trade and financial integration by exploiting network analysis. Our results show that, by combining binary and weighted network analysis, it is possible to deliver more precise and thorough insights on the topological structure and properties of the...

Terms of Trade is inextricably linked to the export performance of countries like Bangladesh that have heavily banked on their respective export sector to dictate the overall development drives. Against this backdrop, this paper empirically sheds light on the nexus between terms of trade...

The authors analyse patterns of international trade and financial integration using complex network analysis. The combination of both binary and weighted approaches delivers more precise and thorough insights into the topological structure and properties of international trade and financial...

In this paper, I use gravity equation with all the possible controls and a large bilateral panel data over 50 years and more than175 countries to estimate the distance effect from 1950 to 1999. An extensive search reveals some new results: different from previous finding that distance effects...

We estimate a multi-country multi-sector New Keynesian model to quantify the drivers of domestic inflation during 2020–2023 in several countries, including the United States. The model matches observed inflation together with sector-level prices and wages. We further measure the relative...

In this paper we compare the patterns of trade and financial integration by exploiting network analysis. Our results show that, by combining binary and weighted network analysis, it is possible to deliver more precise and thorough insights on the topological structure and properties of the...

The paper empirically examines the differential effects of trade on economic growth and investment based on cross-country data. In general, the results are largely consistent with the positive impact of trade on economic growth as found in the literature. However, the empirical results based on...

We estimate a gravity model for 205 international trading partners over the period 1954-2014, by allowing for multiple layers of heterogeneity. The first layer of heterogeneity arises from the interactions between the gravity variables, and the second one comes from country pairs that differ in...

The paper draws a link between the conditions for low pass-through when there are flexible prices, and local-currency pricing when there are sticky nominal prices. It shows that the condition under which pass-through is less than one-half when prices are flexible is the same as the condition...
