The purpose of this study is to examine whether we can identify a Phillips curve fit for the Kingdom of Eswatini as a low middle income Sub-Saharan Africa monarchy using data collected between 1991 and 2016. In our approach we rely on the recently introduced nonlinear autoregressive distributive...

The Bank of Zambia has one of the highest central bank turnover averages in Africa and the inflationary effects of the low central bank autonomy are yet to be empirically quantified. This study develops an index of central bank turnover for the Zambian economy extending from 1984 to 2020 and...

The purpose of this study is to examine the time-frequency relationship in the Fisher's effect for South African Customs Union (SACU) countries using continuous wavelet transforms. We use the Wavelet power spectrum to decompose the nominal interest rate and inflation rate across a time frequency...

Is the SARB’s inflation target of 3-6% compatible with the 6% economic growth objective set by ASGISA? Estimations of inflation-growth bivariate Threshold Vector Autoregressive with corresponding bivariate Threshold Vector Error Correction (BTVEC-BTVAR) econometric models for sub-periods...
