This paper examines the impact of global liquidity on global commodity prices and asset prices in some major developing and developed economies. Specifically, the global liquidity on global commodity prices and asset prices is investigated using data from six major developing and emerging...

This paper quantifies the economic influence that shocks to EMU cohesion, which in turn reflect the incomplete nature of the monetary union, have on the rest of the world. Disentangling euro area stress shocks and global risk aversion shocks based on a combination of sign, magnitude and...

We propose the use of state-space models (SSMs) to estimate dynamic spatial relationships from time series data. At each time step, the weight matrix, capturing the latent state, is updated by a spatial autoregressive model. Specifically, we consider two types of SSM: the first one calibrates...

We propose a new tool to filter non-linear dynamic models that does not require the researcher to specify the model fully and can be implemented without solving the model. If two conditions are satisfied, we can use a flexible statistical model and a known measurement equation to back out the...

This paper provides novel estimations of a non-linear exchange rate pass-through dependent on inflation for Sweden using a logistic smooth transition vector autoregressive model. The model enables smooth transitions between high and low inflation regimes, mirroring the dynamics of the economy...

This paper aims to verify the relationship between the international markets for crude oil and carbon credits. We studied the returns of prices practiced in these markets, focusing on the transmission of shocks between oil prices and carbon credit prices. The methodological approach used...

A bulk of literature has identified the major economic drivers of Hong Kong’s rapid and steady economic performance over the last three decades. Of the major economic drivers identified, the performance of the stock market has received less attention. This paper examines the causal links...

Globale geopolitische Risiken sind in den letzten Jahren gestiegen. Jüngstes Beispiel ist die sich verschärfende Auseinandersetzung zwischen den USA und dem Iran. Diese Risiken wirken sich auch auf die deutsche Volkswirtschaft aus: Ihr unerwarteter Anstieg, definiert als geopolitischer Schock,...
