We examine the empirical relationship between financial and economic growth in Bangladesh over the period of 1985-2014. Augmented Dickey Fuller (ADF) test is performed for checking the stationarity properties and it is revealed that all the concerned variables are stationary. Johansen cointegration method indicates that long-run cointegrating relationship prevails in some of the concerned varia...

In cointegrating regressions, available estimators and test statistics are nuisance parameter dependent. This paper addresses this problem as an identi…cation failure. We focus on set estimation of long-run coe¢ cients (denoted ). We check whether and to what degree popular estimation methods, speci…cally the Maximum Likelihood of Johansen (1995), Fully Modi…ed OLS [Phillips and Hansen (1990); ...

The fundamental argument in the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) is that the market risk is impossible to be eliminated. Investors tend to look into the possibility of diversifying their investment activities in various countries in the same region, hence, regional of equity markets. This study makes an attempt to re-examine the dynamic relationship among the Malaysian, and the Tiger markets ...

This paper examines the relationship between stock returns and inflation. We focus on various econometric techniques to test this relationship, using monthly values of the Athens Stock Exchange Price index and the Greek Consumer Price index over the period 1988-2002. The results from a simple OLS model show evidence of a positive but not significant relationship, while when we consider a system...

This study estimates the effects of Internet usage, financial development and trade openness on economic growth using annual time series data for South Africa for the period 1991-2013. Structural unit root test and Johansen and ARDL cointegration tests are performed to examine the long run relationship amongst Internet usage, financial development, trade openness and economic growth. Findings f...

The study of long-run equilibrium processes is a significant component of economic and finance theory. The Johansen technique for identifying the existence of such long-run stationary equilibrium conditions among financial time series allows the identification of all potential linearly independent cointegrating vectors within a given system of eligible financial time series. The practical appli...

This paper presents a simulation study that assesses the finite sample performance of the subspace algorithm cointegration analysis developed in Bauer and Wagner (2002b). The method is formulated in the state space framework, which is equivalent to the VARMA framework, in a sense made precise in the paper. This implies applicability to VARMA processes. The paper proposes and compares six differ...

This study uses a cointegration analysis and vector autoregressive models to investigate the transmission of stock price movements among Taiwan and its major trading partners, Hong Kong, Japan and the United States. The results of Johansen cointegration test indicate that four stock markets considered are cointegrated with one cointegrating vector, which violates the semi-strong form of the mar...

This study aims to investigate the effects of health expenditure on economic growth in Turkey. For this purpose, time series data Turkey over period 1975–2018 were evaluated. Moreover, household consumption, life expectancy at birth, trade, and foreign direct investments added as control variables. Cointegration analysis was performed test whether all variables are cointegrated long term. Causa...
