Symmetry of shocks in old and new EU members through time?

ثبت نشده
چکیده

I investigate the convergence of demand and supply shocks in new EU member countries to those of the EU. High synchronization of the shocks would indicate relatively low costs of joining a monetary union. Applying the Kalman filter to demand and supply shocks recovered from SVAR, I calculate time varying coefficients in regression of shocks in individual countries versus the EU. For most countries, including the newest members Bulgaria and Romania, I find convergence of both demand and supply shocks. Convergence of supply shocks indicates a slowing down of the dynamic process of institutional adjustment and productivity shocks in these countries.

The Survey of the Asymmetric Effects of Inflation's Positive and Negative Shocks on Inflation Uncertainty in Iran Through the Extending Ball Model (1992)

The purpose of current paper is to survey the asymmetric effects of inflation's positive and negative shocks on inflation uncertainty in short-run and long-run. For this end, first, the Ball model (1992) has been extended through the decomposition of inflation shocks to money demand's positive and negative shocks and money supply's positive and negative shocks. Then, through using nonlinear aut...

A Dynamic Analysis of Asymmetric Shocks in Eu Manufacturing

Available empirical evidence regarding the degree of symmetry between European economies in the context of Monetary Unification is not conclusive. This paper offers new empirical evidence concerning this issue related to the manufacturing sector. Instead of using a static approach as most empirical studies do, we analyse the dynamic evolution of shock symmetry using a state-space model. The res...

Fetus, Fasting, and Festival: The Persistent Effects of In Utero Social Shocks

The Fetal Origins Hypothesis (FOH), put forward in the epidemiological literature and later flourished in the economics literature, suggests that the time in utero is a critical period for human development. However, much attention has been paid to the consequences of fetal exposures to more extreme natural shocks, while less is known about fetal exposures to milder but more commonly experience...

The Lifetime Behavior of a New Discrete Time Mixed $delta$-shock Model

In this study, a mixed $delta$-shock model with discrete-time is defined by combining $delta$-shock and extreme shock models. In this model, a system with multiple states fails in two ways: first, when k interarrival times between two consecutive shocks with magnitude larger than the critical threshold $gamma$ are in $[delta_1, delta _2], delta_1 < delta _2$; and second, when the interarrival t...
