The paper aims to model the outliers of the importation equations by using recursive robust estimation methods. Firstly, we use the test of Belsley to detect the aberrant points in the Moroccan importation data such agricultural machinery, sea boats, electric generators, motors-generators. We...

This research aims to study the nature of the relationship between the government spending and the private investment in the non-oil sectors of the Saudi economy through testing the crowding out effect during four decades and using the Bootstrapping technique. Firstly we use the Box-Cox...

This paper investigates the long-run relationship between the real private investment and the government investment in Saudi Arabia using a threshold cointegration test. The results show the stability of the private investment effect both above the threshold and mostly below the threshold. As if...

The purpose of this paper is to test the Ricardian Equivalence hypothesis REH by estimating a SVAR model. In this framework, we separate the co-movements of saving rate and budget deficit rate into two types of shocks, associated with structural parameters, as if we were looking for ‘’two...

The research aims to examine the relationship, whether complementary or substitutive, between inward FDI and gross domestic investment in the six GCC countries using cointegration techniques and fully modified GMM estimation. Based on the panel data during the period 1979-2010, the empirical...

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the dynamics of crude oil prices of OPEC and non-OPEC countries using threshold cointegration. To capture the long run asymmetric price transmission mechanism, we develop an error correction model within a threshold cointegration and CGARCH errors...

This research paper aims to initialize a theoretical analysis of the effects of exogenous and endogenous shocks on the economics of Hajj and Umrah. Through the induction methodology of Shariah Makassed analysis and the theoretical modeling approach of the structural autoregressive vector, this...

The paper aims to analyze the current account of the Saudi economy using an intertemporal modeling and tested by the structural VAR methodology. By deriving the long-run current account to GDP ratio, we analyze the impacts of global and local shocks on the current account. Considering that the...
