Nonlinear and Asymmetric Adjustment to Purchasing Power Parity in East-Asian Countries

This study applies a simple and powerful nonlinear unit root test to test the validity of long-run purchasing power parity (PPP) in a sample of 10 East-Asian countries (i.e., China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan and Thailand) over the period of March 1985 to September 2008. The empirical results indicate that PPP holds true for half of these 10 Eas...

Nonlinear adjustment, purchasing power parity and the role of nominal exchange rates and prices

Although the literature on purchasing power parity (PPP) is rich in controversy, the relative contribution of prices and nominal exchange rates to real exchange rate movements which restore PPP disequilibria has rarely been put under any close scrutiny. Using monthly data from 1973:01 to 2009:12 from the USA, UK, Germany, France and Japan, this paper as a fi rst step applies a cointegrated VAR ...

Nonlinear cointegration: Theory and Application to Purchasing Power Parity

In this paper, we study a smooth-transition type of nonlinear cointegration among a dynamic system, in which the proposed definition nests Engle and Granger (1987)’s linear cointegration. Based on the Smooth Transition Autoregressive (STAR) models, a triangular representation for the nonlinearly cointegrated system is introduced. Furthermore, two tests for nonlinear cointegration are derived in...

The Purchasing Power Parity Debate

Our willingness to pay a certain price for foreign money must ultimately and essentially be due to the fact that this money possesses a purchasing power as against commodities and services in that country. On the other hand, when we offer so and so much of our own money, we are actually offering a purchasing power as against commodities and services in our own country. Our valuation of a foreig...
