Has the European Monetary System Led to More Exports? Evidence from Four European Union Countries
(National University of Ireland, Galway, 1998-10)
We attempt to investigate whether the ERM period has coincided with an increase in intra-EU exports. We conclude that this has not been the case but it is likely that the elimination of nominal exchange rate variability ...
Tests for Interest Rate Convergence
(National University of Ireland, Galway, 1997-05)
We use a new test for cointegration that allows for structural breaks in the cointegrating relationship to test for bilateral interest rate convergence in the European Monetary System. Contrary to previous studies that ...
Exchange Rate Volatility and Exports: The Case of Ireland
(National University of Ireland, Galway, 1997-05)
We use the techniques of cointegration and error-correction models to estimate long-run and short-run export demand functions for Ireland using quarterly data for the 1979-1993 period. We consider three determinants of ...
Estimation of the impact of CAP reform on the structure of farming in the disadvantaged areas of Ireland
(National University of Ireland, Galway, 1997-09)
In this paper the Johansen model was used to examine the impact of
CAP Reform on the structure of farming in the Disadvantaged Areas of
Ireland. The model is essentially a policy impact model using an elasticity
set. ...
New fields of employment: problems and possibilities in local and community economic development
(National University of Ireland, Galway, 1997-09)
There has been a renewal of interest in the possibilities for new local employment
in the social economy and this may be a suitable area where community initiative
and effort can be concentrated. The literature suggests ...
Testing for monetary policy convergence in european countries
(National University of Ireland, Galway, 1997-12)
The paper tests for long-run monetary policy convergence and short-run
policy interactions in seven ERM countries over the 1979-1992 period using
the approach of multivariate cointegration and Granger-causality tests. ...
Testing for real interest rate convergence in European countries
(National University of Ireland, Galway, 1998-01)
We use cointegration tests that determine endogenously the regime shift to
test for bilateral short-term and long-term real interest rate convergence in
the European Monetary System in the 1979-1993 period. The results ...
An empirical analysis of short-run and long-run Irish export functions : does exchange rate volatility matter?
(National University of Ireland, Galway, 1998-04)
We analyse the long-run and short-run relationship between merchandise
export volume and its determinants, foreign income, relative prices and
exchange rate variability, using the techniques of cointegration and ...
Are the US current account deficits really sustainable?
(National University of Ireland, Galway, 1998-03)
We have tested for a long-run relationship between four US export measures
and analogous import measures (measured in nominal and real terms, levels
and deflated by GNP) in the 1967-1994 period using quarterly data. ...
The Impact of the Exchange Rate Regime on Exports: Evidence from Bilateral Exports in the European Monetary System
(National University of Ireland, Galway, 1999)
By employing the techniques of multivariate cointegration and error-correction models, we investigate the impact of the creation of the European Monetary System (EMS) on the exports of the four largest EU countries to each ...
