This book was released on 2020-11-21 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book provides a comprehensive overview of the latest econometric methods for studying the dynamics of macroeconomic and financial time series. It examines alternative methodological approaches and concepts, including quantile spectra and co-spectra, and explores topics such as non-linear and non-stationary behavior, stochastic volatility models, and the econometrics of commodity markets and globalization. Furthermore, it demonstrates the application of recent techniques in various fields: in the frequency domain, in the analysis of persistent dynamics, in the estimation of state space models and new classes of volatility models. The book is divided into two parts: The first part applies econometrics to the field of macroeconomics, discussing trend/cycle decomposition, growth analysis, monetary policy and international trade. The second part applies econometrics to a wide range of topics in financial economics, including price dynamics in equity, commodity and foreign exchange markets and portfolio analysis. The book is essential reading for scholars, students, and practitioners in government and financial institutions interested in applying recent econometric time series methods to financial and economic data.

Book Growth Spillover Dynamics From Crisis to Recovery

Download or read book Growth Spillover Dynamics From Crisis to Recovery written by Ms.Helene Poirson Ward and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2011-09-01 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can positive growth shocks from the faster-growing countries in Europe spill over to the slower growing countries, providing useful tailwinds to their recovery process? This study investigates the potential relevance of growth spillovers in the context of the crisis and the recovery process. Based on a VAR framework, our analysis suggests that the U.S. and Japan remain the key source of growth spillovers in this recovery, with France also playing an important role for the European crisis countries. Notwithstanding the current export-led cyclical upswing, Germany generates relatively small outward spillovers compared to other systemic countries, but likely plays a key role in transmitting and amplifying external growth shocks to the rest of Europe given its more direct exposure to foreign shocks compared to other European countries. Positive spillovers from Spain were important prior to the 2008 - 09 crisis, however Spain is generating negative spillovers in this recovery due to a depressed domestic demand. Negative spillovers from the European crisis countries appear limited, consistent with their modest size.

Book Real Estate Economics

Download or read book Real Estate Economics written by Nicholas G. Pirounakis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Real Estate Economics: A point-to-point handbook introduces the main tools and concepts of real estate (RE) economics. It covers areas such as the relation between RE and the macro-economy, RE finance, investment appraisal, taxation, demand and supply, development, market dynamics and price bubbles, and price estimation. It balances housing economics with commercial property economics, and pays particular attention to the issue of property dynamics and bubbles – something very topical in the aftermath of the US house-price collapse that precipitated the global crisis of 2008. This textbook takes an international approach and introduces the student to the necessary ‘toolbox’ of models required in order to properly understand the mechanics of real estate. It combines theory, technique, real-life cases, and practical examples, so that in the end the student is able to: • read and understand most RE papers published in peer-reviewed journals; • make sense of the RE market (or markets); and • contribute positively to the preparation of economic analyses of RE assets and markets soon after joining any company or other organization involved in RE investing, appraisal, management, policy, or research. This book should be particularly useful to third-year students of economics who may take up RE or urban economics as an optional course, to postgraduate economics students who want to specialize in RE economics, to graduates in management, business administration, civil engineering, planning, and law who are interested in RE, as well as to RE practitioners and to students reading for RE-related professional qualifications.

Book Economic Prosperity and Space Development

Download or read book Economic Prosperity and Space Development written by Michael G. Baran and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010-07-09 with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has been over two years in the making. While the title may appear to be specific to Economics and Space Development I have been sure to include the human element as well as consider environmental concerns. I feel out of necessity it is essential something be done to prevent our world economy from running the risk of falling into a depression. Whereby the middle class and the poor would see their positions decline, which is already happening to some extent. Politicians, business leaders, and economists appear to be in a tough position, with little room to manoeuvre, with respect to revitalising the world economy. As well, there may not have been much focus yet on developing new strategies to bring about economic recovery. Since the focus to date appears to be on regaining economic stability. I feel what I have to offer, which may not be the ultimate or only solution, may at the very least stimulate some thoughtful discussions on how to improve the economic stability and perhaps return to some economic growth. "Economic Prosperity and Space Development" is essentially about how we can improve our current world economic malaise by looking at Space Exploration and Development as a way to exploit our Solar Systems and the Galaxy's wealth. I have related the advent of man's expansion into the Galaxy in relation to the historical exploitation of the America's by European Nations and the resulting accumulation of wealth and generation of economic prosperity. I begin by documenting the poor economic situation the world is in. I have obtained and reported economic data from the IMF, the World Bank, Government Agencies, and recent News Reports. The main direction these reports take is that the National and City governments and their respective budgets appear to have debt risk especially in the current economic environment. As well many Industries are finding their markets lacking growth or their markets are at risk. I have also included a section on the environment which is bound to be detrimentally affected should the economy continue to falter. This at a time when we appear to be making some progress in waste processes at the city and industrial level. As to financing this proposed expansion into Space I detail in the book how the G20 community and the World Bank should set up long term financing along the lines of the various programs the World Bank is currently involved with. But , I imagine on a much larger scale. Due to scope of the financial outlay I also recommend the Space Development is organised along the lines of Economic Communities (EU , NA, AP , etc) rather just the individual Nation states. I provide examples of recent World Bank financed programs that have been implemented. Then finally I detail how our existence on earth is subject to catastrophic events. Asteroids, Climate change, changes in magnetic polar locations. While we hope that our existence on earth should be free from trouble for the next few thousand years at least. We just do not know when to expect the next occurrence. Having technologies developed that would allow the transport of a good portion of the populace and nature would help alleviate that risk.

This book was released on 1998-01-01 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is already a large and growing literature about the financial crises affecting several former star economic performers in Asia.

Book Housing Markets in Europe

Book excerpt: During the recession in the years 2008-2009, the most severe for mature economies in the post-war period, housing markets were often mentioned as having a special responsibility.

The co-movements of house prices across countries are also considered, as well as the channel of transmission of house price changes to the rest of the economy. Particular attention is paid to the effects on private consumption, through possible wealth effects. The book is a compilation of original papers produced by economists and researchers from the four main national central banks in the euro area, also with the participation of leading academics.

Cities are booming everywhere, leading to a growing demand for urban housing. In many cities this demand is out-pacing supply, which causes house prices to soar and increases the pressure on rental markets. These developments are posing major challenges for policymakers, central banks and other authorities responsible for ensuring financial stability, and economic well-being in general.This volume collects views from high-level policymakers and researchers, providing essential insights into these challenges, their impact on society, the economy and financial stability, and possible policy responses. The respective chapters address issues such as the popularity of cities, the question of a credit-fueled housing bubble, the role of housing supply frictions and potential policy solutions. Given its scope, the book offers a revealing read and valuable guide for everyone involved in practical policymaking for housing markets, mortgage credit and financial stability.
