Examining the relation between oil price changes and trade balance is important for oil-importing countries to formulate policy solutions. This study contributes literature by examining asymmetric effects of in prices on China, world’s largest crude importer. To this end, Nonlinear Autoregressive Distributed Lag (NARDL) cointegration approach Pesaran’s Generalized Variance Decompositions techni...

As an export commodity coffee industry contributes to the economies of both exporting and importing countries. The aim study involves competitiveness determinant in Ethiopia through period 1990–2018 observations. To explain level comparative advantage respectively Revealed Comparative Advantage Syematric were employed. capture determinans ARDL model with bound testing co-integration approach wa...

This paper models the price and income elasticity of retail finance in Australia using aggregate quarterly data and an autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) approach. We particularly focus on the impact of the global financial crisis (GFC) from 2007 onwards on retail finance demand and analyse four submarkets (period analysed in brackets): owneroccupied housing loans (Sep 1985–June 2010), term ...

Rotavirus is a common viral infection among young children. As in many countries, the infection dynamics of rotavirus in the Netherlands are characterized by an annual winter peak, which was notably low in 2014. Previous study suggested an association between weather factors and both rotavirus transmission and incidence. From epidemic theory, we know that the proportion of susceptible individua...

Pakistan's local currency has been devalued during different exchange regimes, which may substantially affect energy consumption and CO 2 emissions. Therefore, this study investigates the effects of rate depreciation on emissions from 1990–2018. We apply nonlinear autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) cointegration approach for empirical analysis found that increases in both short long runs. Th...

This paper examines the relation between granting central banks more independence represented in both its manifested legal charter as well actual practices adopted and inflation Egypt during period from 1998-2019. To do so, this first looks at evolution of different bank (CBI) measures adopts most comprehensive relevant one. Consequently, it runs a regression model adopting an autoregressive di...

Inconsistent and inefficient policies, climate issues general poor funding have been adjudged to hinder increased domestic rice production in Nigeria. Rather than tackling these challenges, the nation has continued opt for importation supplement her production, if not recently, as a ‘stop-gap’ food security. Geared towards strengthening resilient efforts of small holder farmers driving this pap...

Abstract This study examines the symmetric and asymmetric impact of public debt on economic growth in Côte d'Ivoire using time series data from 1972 to 2021. The analyses were performed both linear nonlinear autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) models. also utilised bounds F-test for cointegration, Brock-Dechert-Scheinkman (BDS) nonlinearity test, Wald test asymmetries. findings provide suppor...
