Investigating the relationship between oil prices and exchange rates on the price of petroleum products in oil-importing countries

One of the global economic crisis is the price fluctuations of oil.Crude oil prices and exchange rates are two important factors in the oil-importing countries. This study examines the impact of real oil prices and exchange rates on the price of petroleum products in oil-importing countries1 using the data panel method, based on annual data provided by the World Bank site over the period 2000-2...

Asymmetric Effect of Oil Price on the Terms of Trade: Evidence from Oil Exporting and Importing Countries

 The oil price shocks are an important source that affect on TOT in both oil exporting and importing countries. Hence, this paper compares the effects of real oil price shock on TOT in both oil importing and exporting countries, using Panel Data technique and during 1980-2010. To the best of our knowledge, we applied the nonlinear approach in order to assess the asymmetric impact of the oil pri...

Investigating the Impact of Oil Shocks on Employment in the Oil Exporting and Importing Countries

this study examines the impact of oil price shocks on the employment of selected oil-exporting and oil-importing countries. To this end, the annual data for the period 2000-2014 and the econometric models of Christiano and Fitzgerald Filter, Bakstr-King Filter have been used to calculate the oil price shocks and the panel data model is used to estimate the model and data analysis.

In t...
