Using the NATREX equilibrium exchange rate framework for a small open economy, we establish the conditions for a non-linear relationship between remittances and the real exchange rate. Econometric estimates based on panel models with a threshold effect on a sample of 40 countries over the period 1980–2019 confirm a non-linear U-shaped relationship. For countries where remittances account for less than five percent of GDP, an increase in remittances results in a real depreciation of the exchange rate. This is reflected in improvement in external competitiveness, which can be attributed to the dominant supply effect stemming from capital accumulation. Conversely, for countries above this threshold, an increase in remittances leads to a real appreciation of the exchange rate, driven by rising domestic prices linked to a dominant demand effect.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48419,"journal":{"name":"Economic Modelling","volume":"148 ","pages":"Article 107085"},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143777306","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}

Next, we show that the magnitude of employment responses to minimum wage changes depends on the elasticity of capital-labor substitution, with stronger effects observed in industries where capital and labor are more substitutable. When substitution is not feasible, employers respond to the policy by hiring workers informally.

Unlike traditional approaches that rely on fixed rolling windows or use all past data, our method adjusts to current conditions, reducing bias and improving accuracy. Using monthly data on Economic Policy Uncertainty (EPU), we show that this approach captures dynamic spillovers more effectively, particularly during unprecedented events like the COVID-19 pandemic and the Global Financial Crisis (GFC).

Building on recent advances in measuring global financial risk, the study employs local projections that incorporate external factors and local macroeconomic conditions. The results show that global risk-on/risk-off shocks have positive, economically significant, but temporary effects on UIP premia, typically following peak-and-trough patterns. The transmission of global risk to UIP premia is primarily driven by adjustments in exchange rates rather than shifts in interest rate differentials, with stronger responses observed for excess currency returns against the US dollar than the euro. Both the quantity of global risk (economic uncertainty) and its price (risk aversion) influence UIP premia, with the latter inducing more volatile responses.

When altruism is not innate but can be induced, even financially wealthy individuals, who do not need monetary support from their children, invest in altruism-inducing activities. In a steady state, a threshold return from education ensures that parents educate their children, which, in turn, determines the provision of temporal care by educated children. Steady-state savings, bequests and the provision of monetary support are completely determined by the rate of interest. However, steady-state altruism-inducing investment depends on the type of old-age care a parent expects, contingent on her financial well-being.
