This study sheds new light on the question of whether or not sentiment surveys, and the expectations derived from them, are relevant to forecasting economic growth and stock returns, and whether they contain information that is orthogonal to macroeconomic and financial data. I examine 16...

A simple Post Keynesian growth model is developed, in which financial variables are explicitly taken into account. Different possible accumulation regimes are derived with respect to changes of these variables. Several variants of an investment function are estimated econometrically. The...

This paper reviews different econometric methodologies to assess the relationship between financial development and growth. It illustrates the identification problem, which is at the center of the finance and growth literature, using the example of a simple Ordinary Least Squares estimation. It...

We study the effect of overall globalization on economic growth in a neoclassical macroeconomic growth model. We further assess our model by considering the decomposed measures of globalization including economic, political and social globalization components. To this end, weestimate panel data...

This research studies the extent of asymmetric responses of general fertility rate with financial development and income inequality in Bangladesh utilizing annual data from 1984-2019. We employ both linear and non- linear autoregressive distributed lag methodologies. Our study identifies a long...

Purpose - This paper introduces previously missing financial components(efficiency, activity and size) in the assessment of the finance-investment nexus. Design/methodology/approach - VAR models in the perspectives of VECM and short-run Granger causality are employed. Usage of optimally...

We develop a rational expectations model of financial bubbles and study ways in which a generic risk-return interplay is incorporated into prices. We retain the interpretation of the leading Johansen-Ledoit-Sornette model, namely, that the price must rise prior to a crash in order to compensate...

This paper reviews the recent empirical studies on the relationship between financial development and economic growth. Both the empirical evidences and the econometric techniques used in the literature are presented and some critiques are given. We show the drawbacks and poles in existing work...
