At the start of 2021, the stage was finally set for the commencement of trading activities across the continent. While many have expressed fears that the infrastructure deficit of the country and the lack of political will may significantly affect the implementation of the agreement, one must not lose sight of the numerous benefits that the newly established trade bloc avails Nigeria. This paper examines the potential impact of the agreement on trade in 3 key sectors of the Nigerian economy namely, agricultural, manufacturing and service sectors. In essence, it reveals that the agreement indeed is a potential catalyst to Nigeria’s trade in goods and services.","PeriodicalId":307125,"journal":{"name":"Institutional & Transition Economics Policy Paper Series","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115007202","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The negative relation is predominant in firms with higher inventory efficiency and those operating in competitive, high-R&amp;D, and nondurable industries. Customer-base diversification is further shown to enhance firm performance during periods of increasing policy uncertainty, but not when policy uncertainty decreases. Overall, our evidence suggests that firms respond to increasing policy uncertainty by diversifying their customer base and such behavior contributes positively to firm performance.","PeriodicalId":307125,"journal":{"name":"Institutional & Transition Economics Policy Paper Series","volume":"73 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122061057","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper offers a realistic, survey-based, perspective of diaspora driven economic development in small economies of Europe and the former Soviet Union. Emphasizing new waves of international migration and remittances flows, the literature puts disproportionate hope on diaspora to fill the structural voids, what this paper calls a diasporization argument, to motivate international business growth. Informed by a unique Armenian Diaspora Survey, this paper critiques the conventional view and proposes a new analytical framework, reaching three conclusions. First, a diaspora is a multilayered socioeconomic construct, diminishing its first-mover potential. Second, any successful engagement is a function of a sustained interaction of a diaspora with homeland. Finally, in the absence of systemic engagement infrastructure, a diaspora transfer of nonmonetary skills is short-lived. Thus, small open economies remain structurally disadvantaged integrating international business networks. This paper attempts to inform international business and policy literature on small open economies that are seeking to diversify their development approaches, especially following the 2020 economic and health crises.","PeriodicalId":307125,"journal":{"name":"Institutional & Transition Economics Policy Paper Series","volume":"66 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116457293","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To do that, we estimate a set of two-country Structural Vector Autoregressive (SVAR) models for 1997-2019; each model includes the US and one of the LAC. We use the following variables: EPU indexes, exchange rates, consumer price indexes, industrial production (IP), and interest rates (IR) of the US and the studied LAC. The main finding is that positive shocks in the US EPU index lead to currency depreciation for all four LAC; the largest effect is for Mexico. Other statistically significant results are a brief and small positive impact on Colombia’s IP and a positive impact on Mexico’s IR. The remaining LAC’s estimates are statistically insignificant. For this reason, we applied Rossi and Wang’s (2019) robust Granger causality tests that considers structural breaks. Finally, the estimates before and after the 2008 financial crisis suggest that LAC became slightly more responsive to US EPU shocks after the crisis.","PeriodicalId":307125,"journal":{"name":"Institutional & Transition Economics Policy Paper Series","volume":"58 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126234447","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

If so, what implications do those choices have on SPG performance? This paper answers these questions. SPGs are local, quasi-governmental entities established by state legislatures who have the operating flexibility of private corporations. In the United States, there are over 50,000 special-purpose governments with outstanding (and off balance-sheet) debt totaling one trillion dollars. Despite their contribution to national fiscal health, SPGs remain relatively underexplored. Using a sample of transportation SPGs over 20 years, we find that SPGs follow Myers’ and Majluf’s pecking-order theory of capital structure. Additionally, we find that increases in SPGs’ debt predicts increases in revenues and decreases in cash flows. These results help illuminate a poorly understood branch of America’s public sector.","PeriodicalId":307125,"journal":{"name":"Institutional & Transition Economics Policy Paper Series","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122891117","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, it is rarely systematically studied on the macro-level. This paper builds a general model for analysing accelerated depreciation. It uses China's input-output data (1987-2015) to test and quantify the role of accelerated depreciation in promoting economic growth under different asset structures. The results show that accelerated depreciation with investment has a positive effect on economic growth. It becomes more significant as the depreciation period shortens, and is also limited by the asset structure. This paper discusses the possible situations in which tax incentives are not used for investment, and finds that shortening the depreciation period leads to a negative adjustment in economic accounting. This effect has a depreciation turning point where the rate of change increases sharply; this corresponds with the minimum depreciation period for accelerated depreciation in real terms. This paper proposes a method of estimating the depreciation turning point, and calculates the minimum weighted average of the accelerated depreciation period in China (1987-2015), thus providing effective proposals for the formulation and implementation of related economic policies.","PeriodicalId":307125,"journal":{"name":"Institutional & Transition Economics Policy Paper Series","volume":"46 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134206802","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
