Long-run and short-run determinants of sovereign bond yields in advanced economies
We analyze determinants of sovereign bond yields in 22 advanced economies over the 1980–2010 period using panel cointegration techniques.

We find that in the long run, g...

This paper builds a simple theoretical model designed to study dollarization. Each period, a benevolent government decides whether or not to dollarize, how much to borrow or lend on an international bond market, and, if dollarization has not occurred, the devaluation rate. In equilibrium, international borrowing is limited endogenously such that the government always chooses to repay when the p...

Most studies that analyze financial dollarization start from the presumption that credit dollarization is supply-determined. If this were the case, then policies that attempt to reduce dollarization should aim to affect behavior in the banking sector. We use a newly constructed dataset for twenty-...
