This study follows a novel approach proposed by Angelico et al. (2022) using Twitter to measure inflation perception in Colombia in real time. By applying machine learning techniques, we implement two real-time indicators and show that both exhibit a dynamic similar to inflation and inflation...

Purpose - This paper aims to estimate a New Keynesian small open economy dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) model for Egypt using Bayesian techniques and data for the period FY2004/2005:Q1-FY2015/2016:Q4 to assess monetary and fiscal policy interactions and their impact on economic...

Purpose - In this study, it is analyzed the validity of the exchange rate pass-through (ERPT) effect and the effect of interest rate and output level on the inflation rate (IR) in Brazil, Russia, India, China and Turkey (BRIC-T) between the years 1995Q1 and 2022Q4. Design/methodology/approach -...

This paper illustrates a behavioral mixed frequency macro-finance model where both real and financial variables are generated on a daily basis. Further, while financial sector data is collected at the same frequency as it is generated (i.e. daily), real data can only be collected on a quarterly...

We estimate the monetary policy pass-through to lending rates in Brazil and the United States using the same methodology and obtain very different results. In the United States, the pass-through tends to be larger than 1:1. In Brazil, we find a 1:1 pass-through only in the case of non-earmarked...

This study provides an updated analysis of the impact of COVID-19 daily contaminations and vaccinations on the financial markets by incorporating the third wave observed in 2021. Our methodology is based on a comparative approach using a multivariate heteroscedasticity model and data from the...

The relevance of domestic credit to an economy has spurred interest in studies that seek to examine the factors that determine it. In this study, the focus is to evaluate the role of exogenous factors in influencing domestic credit provision in Nigeria. The study used a monthly dataset that...

This paper focuses on the first link of the monetary transmission mechanism - interest rate channel. It forks on two subchannels: credit vein and deposit vein. We will investigate the second one, i.e. the impact of the discount (also key, reference) rate of a central bank on the deposit policy...

This paper investigates the nexus between poverty and central bank independence in developing countries. The study examines data from up to 35 developing countries from 2000 to 2018. Using the GMM dynamic panel data method, the study finds that de jure central bank independence is more robust...

This research investigated the influence of central bank transparency on credit expansion in 15 Asian nations (both advanced and emerging) during the period from 2000 to 2019. Panel OLS and Dynamic GMM estimation are used to identify the impact of central bank transparency on the credit spread....
