This book is concerned with recent developments in time series and panel data techniques for the analysis of macroeconomic and financial data. It provides a rigorous, nevertheless user-friendly, account of the time series techniques dealing with univariate and multivariate time series models, as well as panel data models.It is distinct from other time series texts in the sense that it also covers panel data models and attempts at a more coherent integration of time series, multivariate analysis, and panel data models. It builds on the author's extensive research in the areas of time series and panel data analysis and covers a wide variety of topics in one volume. Different parts of the book can be used as teaching material for a variety of courses in econometrics. It can also be used as reference manual.It begins with an overview of basic econometric and statistical techniques, and provides an account of stochastic processes, univariate and multivariate time series, tests for unit roots, cointegration, impulse response analysis, autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity models, simultaneous equation models, vector autoregressions, causality, forecasting, multivariate volatility models, panel data models, aggregation and global vector autoregressive models (GVAR). The techniques are illustrated using Microfit 5 (Pesaran and Pesaran, 2009, OUP) with applications to real output, inflation, interest rates, exchange rates, and stock prices.

Product Description: The GVAR is a global Vector autoregression model of the global economy. The model was initially developed in the early 2000 by Professor Pesaran and co-authors, for the main purpose of analysing credit risk in a globalised economy...read more

Product Description: In this book, first published in 199, leading theorists and applied economists address themselves to the key questions of aggregation. The issues are covered both theoretically and in wide-ranging applications. Of particular intrest is the optimal aggregation of trade data, the need for micro-modelling when imoprtant non-linearities are present (for example, tax exhaustion in modelling company behaviour) and the use of a micro-model to stimulate labour supply behaviour in a macro-model of the Netherlands...read more

Product Description: This text is about the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. Despite the region's immense endowment of natural resources, its per capita imcome is often viewed as having stagnated. At the same time, most economies in the region have been characterized by extremely high volatility...read more

Product Description: This Handbook focuses on specific microeconomics applications, rather than on conventional econometric theory. It covers the econometric issues involved in a variety of applied microeconomic problems.

Product Description: Energy demand in the developing Asian economies is central to world energy markets and to greenhouse gas emissions. This book reviews the relevant economic and econometric theory, introduces some new econometric techniques, and uses these techniques to analyse energy demand by each economy individually and the region as a whole, by sector, by industry, and by fuel...read more

Each topic is covered by a leading international expert specially commissioned to address the methodological problems of undertaking empirical work in economics and to provide rigorous applications of econometric and statistical methods to economics problems...read more (view table of contents, read Amazon.com's description)

Product Description: The empirical modeling of economic time series is dominated by methods that assume linearity of the underlying dynamic economic system. The reason for the adoption of linearity is its analytical and computational simplicity. But dynamic economic systems can be far from linear and the challenge facing applied econometrics in constructing reliable statistical techniques and models for handling dynamic nonlinearities is immense...read more (view table of contents, read Amazon.com's description)
