Our monetary model demonstrates that changes in bank loans, domestic public debt, and monetisation account for RER dynamics, not resource rents. Resource rents finance two deficits: (i) the fiscal deficit, raising domestic prices, and (ii) the non-resource current account deficit, increasing supply through imports and lowering domestic prices, which offset each other with a net-zero effect on the RER. In contrast, Dutch disease models assume resource rents are spent on non-tradables instead of imports. The case of Trinidad and Tobago (1979-2022) supports the model’s prediction: monetisation, not oil rents, drives the RER. Empirical studies must control for the non-resource current account deficit and money-financed fiscal expenditures. Finally, the non-resource primary fiscal deficit must not exceed foreign borrowing and resource-based funding.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":14444,"journal":{"name":"International Review of Economics & Finance","volume":"101 ","pages":"Article 104051"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2025-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143927775","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two distinct trends are observed: synchronized increases in integrity and economic growth, and rising integrity alongside declining economic growth. The research explores the mechanisms through which anti-corruption approaches, as practical implementations of national integrity systems, influence economic growth. Using panel data from countries undergoing integrity transitions, the study employs business environment and economic freedom as chain mediators in its empirical analysis. Key findings indicate that citizen participation anti-corruption, fair-competition-oriented government-business relationships, rule of law against anti-corruption with universal punishment, institutional anti-corruption with compatible incentives and constraints, and integrity value shaping through consensus-building are crucial pathways to integrity transformation. These approaches promote economic growth by optimizing the business environment and enhancing economic freedom.

As a primary novel contribution, we introduce an ESG Engagement Indicator based on textual analysis techniques, revealing that financial market response is strongly and positively associated with CSR initiatives a company announces through public sustainability commitment statements. We performed several additional analyses to elucidate the dependence of market reaction on a firm's individual characteristics and the specific type of ESG news issued by the company.
