Time-varying Criteria for Monetary Integration: Evidence from the Emu
How can we determine whether an economy will benefit from membership in a monetary union? While economic theory has proposed a number of widely accepted criteria, virtually all empirical studies apply them as if they were time-invariant. The purpose of this paper is to show that, unless the dynamic nature of these criteria is explicitly taken into account, the results will be flawed and mislead...
متن کاملTIME - VARYING WORLD MARKET INTEGRATION Geert Bekaert
We propose a conditional measure of capital market integration that allows us to characterize both the cross-section and time-series ofexpected returns in developed and emerging markets. Our measure, which arises from a conditional regime-switching model, allows us to describe expected returns in countries that are segmented from world capital markets in one part of the sample and become integr...

We investigate the extent to which emerging stock market integration affects the joint behavior of stock and bond returns using a two-stage semi-parametric approach. Using a sample of 18 emerging markets, we find an unambiguous and robust link between emerging stock market integration and stock–bond return decoupling. We explain this with a decline in the segmentation risk premia in equities mo...

The model accounts for intra-European currency risk, time-varying quantities and prices of risk. The results indicate that the degree of integrat...
