This paper examines the implications of using VARs in levels under the Max Share identification approach when variables exhibit unit or near-unit roots. We derive the asymptotic distributions of the Max Share estimator, demonstrating that it converges to a random matrix, resulting in...

This paper examines exchange-rate volatility with GARCH models using monthly exchange-rate return series from 1985:1 to 2011:7 for Naira/US dollar return and from 2004:1 to 2011:7 for Naira/British Pounds and Naira/Euro returns. The study compare estimates of variants of GARCH models with break...

In this paper we present a unit root test against a nonlinear dynamic heterogenous panel with each cross section modelled as an LSTAR model. All parameters are viewed as cross section specific. We allow for serially correlated residuals over time and heterogenous variance among cross sections....
