The study uses a nonstationary heterogeneous panel data technique appropriate for analyzing large cross-sections and long periods. The analysis is separated into turbulent and tranquil periods. The findings suggest that, although the shadow rate is expected to align with the long-term rate, its ability to boost economic activity in the stock markets is only applicable in the short term. Despite the Federal Funds Rate (FFR) being unable to be lowered below zero bounds, the study shows results that support the effectiveness of the FFR in stimulating stock returns in the long run, particularly during crisis periods. The study also reveals that both conventional and unconventional shadow rates share a common feature, which is that they demonstrate how the stock markets can be downward-sticky in the long run with a rising shadow rate in virtually all 50 states in the U.S. The findings provide sturdy insights into the usefulness of unconventional monetary policy measures for stock market performance during crises and normal periods.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47962,"journal":{"name":"Quarterly Review of Economics and Finance","volume":"97 ","pages":"Article 101890"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1062976924000966/pdfft?md5=731b8e1e358152023e22193782891af9&pid=1-s2.0-S1062976924000966-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141638732","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Moreover, existing research predominantly examines export choices from a technological perspective, with minimal emphasis on the marketing aspects of exporting. Our study offers new insights by examining whether exporting induces firms to invest in marketing and research and development (R&D), and how these investments affect their performance before and after entering export markets. Using a panel of Indian firms from 2002 to 2019, our two-step methodology employs propensity score matching (PSM) to extract export-induced expenditures and production function estimation to assess their impacts on firm performance. The findings reveal that both export-induced marketing and R&D expenditures positively influence firm performance, with marketing investments exhibiting a stronger impact. The combined effect becomes significantly evident post-export entry. We also utilized the instrumental variable (IV) method to validate our findings. Heterogeneous IV analysis highlights that mature firms and those facing financial constraints particularly ramp up these investments post-export entry. Our results hold implications for managers and policymakers, emphasizing the importance of carefully designing export investment policies alongside other export support programs.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47962,"journal":{"name":"Quarterly Review of Economics and Finance","volume":"97 ","pages":"Article 101886"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-07-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141692693","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The agency introduced a new regulatory policy in 2015 to encourage competition to provide high-quality, customer-oriented financial products and services. Unlike traditional regulation, this policy is based on the comply-or-explain approach, which does not mandate compliance. We utilize a difference-in-differences (DID) approach to examine whether this policy induces changes in the behavior of fund distributors regarding the promotion of these funds. We find that the effectiveness of the policy is not uniform. The policy has a limited impact on reducing fund flows and the size of thematic and monthly distribution funds among active funds, which include equity, bond, and balanced funds. By contrast, we find some evidence that the policy has reduced the fund flows and the size of equity thematic and monthly distribution funds relative to low-cost equity index funds. We find that the comply-or-explain approach alone may not suffice to regulate these fund sales, as distributors and managers can pursue their own interests. In addition, the effectiveness of the approach also depends on investors’ behavior, which may be hindered by a lack of sophistication in understanding the characteristics of these funds.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47962,"journal":{"name":"Quarterly Review of Economics and Finance","volume":"97 ","pages":"Article 101891"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141709290","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We develop a small open economy New-Keynesian model, which is estimated using data on selected Sub-Saharan African countries where the coexistence of these two frictions is widespread - Burundi, Malawi and Rwanda. The results reveal that (i) rule-of-thumb consumption enhances the dominance of demand shocks and makes inflation stabilization a challenge; (ii) the presence of an informal sector causes supply shocks to be dominant, creating a trade-off between stabilizing inflation and output; (iii) rule-of-thumb consumption weakens the transmission mechanism of monetary policy while its interaction with informality worsens the situation in most of the selected countries; (iv) informality amid a large population of rule-of-thumb consumers causes the nominal interest rate to counterintuitively decline in response to a contractionary monetary policy shock; (v) in some of the selected countries, a positive productivity shock counterintuitively triggers a nominal exchange rate appreciation when informality interacts with rule-of-thumb consumption behavior; (vi) the coexistence of informality and rule-of-thumb consumption behavior amplifies country-risk premium shocks and; (vii) rule-of-thumb consumption behavior is welfare enhancing. These findings are informative to policymakers, particularly in emerging economies, on the priority reforms as they transition to inflation targeting frameworks. Direct policy implications emerge regarding financial inclusion, the size of the informal sector, and farm input subsidy programs.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47962,"journal":{"name":"Quarterly Review of Economics and Finance","volume":"97 ","pages":"Article 101884"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141594949","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
