Estimating elasticities of demand and supply for South African manufactured exports using a vector error correction model
… exports are estimated using the co-integrating vector autoregression / vector error correction model approach in order toaddress simultaneity and non-stationarity issues. Demand is highly price-elastic, ranging from-3 to -6. The price elasticity of supply is 1. Competitors' prices and world …

The Effect of Foreign Exchange Accumulation on Macroeconomic Stability in Post-Liberalized South Africa
… South Africa over the period 1995-2016 using a vector error correction model. The results show that foreign exchange reserve accumulation has a positive impact on macroeconomic stability.

Female labour force participation and economic growth in South Africa
… growth. This study adopted the Cointegration Vector Autoregressive and Vector Error Correction Model (multivariate equations) together with cointegration equations (FM-Ordinary Least Squares, Canonical Cointegrating Regression and Dynamic Ordinary Least Squares) to establish the long-run and …

Biodiesel profitability and linkages to the soybean oil market
… biodiesel markets in the US through a structural model and a time-series econometric model. A conceptual link is built based on the theories of market efficiencies and implications of a binding mandate on supply and demand. We hypothesize that a long run zero-profit relationship governs the …

The effect of economic growth volatility on income and wealth inequality in South Africa
This study uses a vector error correction model with impulse response, variance decomposition, and block Granger causality analysis over the period 1975-2018 to identify the effect of economic growth volatility on income inequality and wealth inequality in South Africa, and to determine whether …

The dynamic effect of macroeconomic factors on housing prices: Evidence from South Africa
… the 2000Q1-2019Q4 period. The study utilizes a vector error correction model (VECM) to estimate the short- and long-run causal relationships while accounting for endogeneity and reverse causality. The results suggest the existence of a significant short-run and long-run association between house …

The relationship between derivatives, portfolio flows and economic growth: Evidence from South Africa
… portfolio inflows and economic growth. A vector error correction model was used in addition to conducting Granger causality, impulse response functions and variance decomposition tests to analyse the relationship between the factors of interest. The efficiency of the model was established …

Bank lending and monetary policy transmission in Germany
… loan data. We base our analysis on a stylized model of the banking firm, which specifies the loan supply decisions of banks in the light of expectations about the future course of monetary policy. Using the model as a guide, we apply a vector error correction model (VECM), in which we identify …

The Short-term and Long-term Relationship between Public Sentiment and Insurgency Violence in 3 Southern Provinces of Thailand
… multivariate time-series analysis, namely Vector Autoregressive Model (VAR) and Vector Error Correction Model (VECM), and empirical system dynamics analysis, namely Convergent CrossMapping (CCM). The results show that the relationship between public sentiment and the insurgency violence are …

Understanding the price of DDGS
… between the three price series is found and a Vector Error Correction model (VECM). Additionally, weak exogeneity testing shows that corn is weakly exogenous. The cause of this finding may be differences in the ease of storing the three commodities. Granger causality gives insight into the …

China's success in FDI: Why South Africa can learn from it
… results when tested separately with the same model. This study uses an alternative approach that focuses on finding a Vector Error Correction Model with similar macroeconomic determinants of FDI for South Africa and for China. For both countries, larger market size and more advanced technology …

Time series analysis of the lead-lag relationship of freight futures and spot market prices
… correlation coefficients. In the third method, a Vector Error Correction model was created for each pair of time series in order to test the influence of the one series to the other. Finally, we present a brief comparison between the volatility of the freight rates and the trading value of freight …

The Causal Relationship between Financial Development and Economic Growth in Tanzania 1980-2010
… variables, the study employs a cointegration and vector error correction model (VECM) technique. Granger causality test was applied to the variables to test for the direction of causation between variables. The study uses annually data for the period of 1980 to 2010. Economic growth is proxied by …

Efeitos dos impostos diretos e indiretos sobre a renda disponível dos agentes econômicos brasileiros: uma análise do período 1995-2012
… the Real Plan. To meet this goal we used the vector error correction model (VEC), since the variables are cointegrated and exhibit stationarity in the first difference. The basis of quarterly data collected in the database IPEADATA was used, with time interval 1995 to 2012. The results suggest …

Government expenditure variables and economic growth in Zambia
… growth between 2001Q1 and 2014Q4 using the vector error correction model. The study found that only expenditure on transport and gross fixed capital formation had a significant positive impact on economic growth in the short-run. In the long-run, only expenditures on transport and education …

Predictability of the Dollar- Rand exchange rate using Taylor Rule fundamentals and commodity Prices.
… 1980-2016. The paper estimated three forecasting models, namely, the augmented Taylor rule specification, a Johansen Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) and a Random walk approach. The results from the Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE) show that the Random walk model outperforms both the Taylor rule …
