This work explores some distributional properties of aggregate output growth-rate time series. We show that, in the majority of OECD countries, output growth-rate distributions are well-approximated by symmetric exponential-power densities with tails much fatter than those of a Gaussian. Fat...

This paper revisits, empirically, the question of whether the choice of exchange rate regime (floating currency, fixed rate or intermediate arrangement) has a direct effect on the long-term growth in Tunisia over a period from 1990 to 2014. The results show that both series are integrated of...

We evaluate the impact of foreclosure on house prices and are especially interested to evaluate heterogeneous impacts of foreclosure along the house size and income distributions across geographic regions. The study uses a novel and comprehensive dataset that encompasses detailed housing and...
