This study analyzes the persistency of total and disaggregated Turkish exports for different shock magnitudes using the quantile autoregression (QAR) method in line with Koenker and Xiao (J Am Stat Assoc 99:775–787, 2004). The results suggest that the persistence of shocks are not similar...

To investigate the role of intra-regional trade integration on economic growth in Latin America, we develop a multilevel spatial production network model with time-varying parameters. The theoretical model is established for a multi-country and multi-sectoral economy. The reduced-form...

This study empirically examines the nature of the exchange rate-pass through (ERPT) into export and import prices in the case of a small open economy of Korea by using a bounds testing approach. The estimation results obtained from the unrestricted error correction model (UECM) using data on...
