We test the validity of our model empirically in the case of Greece and Turkey for the period 1971–2023, considering a set of geopolitical, institutional, and economic variables. Our results indicate that if the level of security attained is inadequate in terms of the threat faced, the economic environment becomes highly uncertain, thus depriving the economy from increasing its GDP. In addition, we point to the need for investment in domestic defense technology and infrastructure, both for facing threats and for promoting economic growth. At the institutional level our results indicate the crucial role of the regime type in smoothing the relationship between the two adversaries. The policy implications derived are based on the close relationship between national security, economic growth, and institutions, indicating the need for economies to invest in their domestic industrial base, in light of the latest technological progress and the multipolar nature of the international system.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":47220,"journal":{"name":"Economics & Politics","volume":"38 1","pages":"231-251"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146136174","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Taken together, we expect electoral integrity to be a U-shaped function of poverty. We also hypothesize that electoral integrity will vary depending on the strength of state electoral laws.

We document that firms with higher data asset potential receive more positive market reactions to the regulations than those with lower data asset potential. Heterogeneity analyses suggest that the positive market reactions are concentrated in firms with technological attribute, higher technological factor intensity, and stronger market position. In addition, we observe that stronger external monitoring, higher stock liquidity, and better information disclosure amplify the positive market reactions.

The primary data source for this study is the Worldwide Governance Indicators provided by the World Bank for the period 2006–2020. These indicators focus on six key dimensions that assess the quality of governance within the BRICS countries and the six BRICS Plus candidate nations. Following the approach outlined by Phillips and Sul (2007, 2009), the analysis reveals convergence in five of these indicators among the BRICS countries, with the exception of the Control of Corruption. This discrepancy raises questions about the BRICS' role and influence as an international organization. However, it is worth noting that none of the six potential BRICS Plus candidates exhibit full cointegration or convergence with all the indicators used to assess the BRICS. The results, encompassing both cointegration and convergence, highlight the significant challenges in achieving complete alignment for the emerging BRICS Plus group.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":47220,"journal":{"name":"Economics & Politics","volume":"38 1","pages":"62-92"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-08-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146147906","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yu'ebao, as one of China's most representative internet money market fund products, has attracted considerable attention regarding the determinants of fluctuations in its yield. Taking Yu'ebao as the research subject, this paper explores the mechanisms through which capital market activities and investor sentiment—captured through both stock and bond markets—affect the fund's yield. Empirical results indicate that: (1) stock market trading volume exhibits a significant positive correlation with Yu'ebao's yield, whereas bond market trading volume shows a significant negative impact; (2) the influence of bond market trading volume on Yu'ebao's yield is more pronounced compared to that of the stock market; (3) although investor sentiment is significantly positively correlated with Yu'ebao's yield, it does not constitute a decisive determinant. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of the yield formation mechanism in internet money market funds.
