In addition, the study forecasts CO2 emissions considering 2030 targets under different assumptions and assesses the achievability of the set target. The estimation results concluded that the GDP and fossil fuel intensities of GDP have a statistically positive impact on CO2 emissions. Also, we found that the forecasted value for 2030, for the business-as-usual case, is 1750 MtCO2, with 95% confidence interval values of 1703 MtCO2 and 1796 MtCO2. This result shows that Russia needs to undergo substantial policy interventions to achieve its targets to reduce CO2 emissions. As the fifth biggest emitter, Russia missing its emissions targets will have undesirable implications for the rest of the world. Based on the projection results, the paper discusses some potential policy interventions.","PeriodicalId":51747,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Economics","volume":" 113","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2023-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41252698","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}

Our findings show that the model specification containing both judicial expenditure and human resources is more appropriate than the model based only on human resources. Moreover, we show that, without considering the additional variable costs generated within the production process, those courts incorrectly identified as benchmarks might mislead the policy makers dealing with the reform process.","PeriodicalId":51747,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Economics","volume":"25 1","pages":"339 - 360"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48082545","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}

We utilize annual bank data across 46 countries in Sub-Saharan Africa over the period 2011–2018 and find that increased income diversification improves banks performance, and the Global and Emerging banks perform better than the regional African and domestic banks. Regarding how different foreign banks benefit from income diversification, we find that Global banks benefit from diversification more than their counterparts operating in the region. The Emerging country banks outperform the African and domestic banks, while the local banks in the region benefit from income diversification more than the regional African banks. The results of this study suggest that the emerging banks and the regional African banks do not always exhibit similar features like the Global banks. The observations in this study make significant contribution to the literature by providing new insight into the non-homogeneity of foreign banks in the income diversification pendulum.","PeriodicalId":51747,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Economics","volume":"25 1","pages":"1 - 21"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44431515","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}

This study aims to demonstrate the usefulness of capital controls for reducing macroeconomic volatilities and then mitigating their negative effects on international trade. Using quarterly data, we applied a dynamic panel approach to a sample of 26 countries over the period 2010–2020. By diversifying the estimation techniques and using different capital control indexes, our results show that a capital control policy supports international trade and reduces exchange rate and interest differentials volatilities. The impact of capital controls is asymmetric when considering the role of financial development, the cyclical behavior of capital controls, and the simultaneous use of macroprudential policies. This study raises some policy implications, particularly, the necessary coordination and adjustment of the macroeconomic policies and the importance of targeting long-lasting controls when applying a restrictive policy.","PeriodicalId":51747,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Economics","volume":"25 1","pages":"907 - 935"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43363052","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}

The contribution of exports to growth, however, seems to have been stronger in the final years of the 19th century, unlike the rest of the period, where it proved to be negligible.","PeriodicalId":51747,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Economics","volume":"25 1","pages":"1314 - 1337"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47311979","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}

Event studies, analysing the impact of different events on asset prices, are one of the most important research fields but there is a lack of evidence on cryptocurrencies. For that reason, we analyse the existence of over- and under- reaction effects on Bitcoin after hourly price shocks defined by filter sizes. We also do this using three alternative approaches. Our results show clear evidence of overreaction after negative shocks. We also observe that these overreactions tend to be greater as more hours pass after the event, with those that occur between 6 and 24 hours after the event being especially important. These results have important economic implications because they show that investors would be able to develop a profitable trading strategy simply by focusing on investing after negative shocks.","PeriodicalId":51747,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Economics","volume":"25 1","pages":"1294 - 1313"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2022-12-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47243411","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}

A double-difference propensity score matching method is adopted. It has been found that mixed ownership reforms are more likely to promote innovation in SOEs, particularly in monopolistic industries. A further sub-sample test reveals that in state-owned enterprises in monopolistic industries, the acquisition of relative control by private shares can amplify the innovation effect of mixed ownership reforms. In private companies in competitive industries, state-owned shares can only fuel innovation if they gain relative control. Reducing agency costs and easing financing constraints are important channels for mixed ownership reform to promote corporate innovation.","PeriodicalId":51747,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Economics","volume":"25 1","pages":"1339 - 1354"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2022-12-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44404446","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}

We investigate the effect of psychopathy on crime using a unique panel dataset of young offenders, which allows to analyze several dimensions of psychopathy, controlling for a wide range of usually unobservable characteristics. We find that psychopathy is an important predictor of crime. We show that the effect is two times larger (and closer to usual estimates) when measures of cognitive and non-cognitive skills are not accounted for, highlighting the importance of having comprehensive data on individual heterogeneity to isolate the effect of psychopathy on crime from the effect of confounding factors. Our results are robust to alternative measures of psychopathy and criminal participation.

To do so, a product-level dataset is used from Iranian-listed manufacturing companies. This study employs the imposition of international sanctions against Iran in 2012 as an exogenous shock to identify the effect of financial constraints. According to the results financially restricted firms keep their prices lower than their counterparts to increase their internal financial resources. The results show the difference between output prices of constrained and unconstrained firms rising after the imposition of sanctions. In addition, this relationship is affected by the degree of export-orientation of firms, and only exporter firms that experienced the negative demand shock after the sanctions, set their price lower to reduce the financial pressures. Also, the degree of dependency on imported input does not play a significant role in the relationship and ownership structure of firms has a significant impact on the relationship.","PeriodicalId":51747,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Economics","volume":"25 1","pages":"1219 - 1238"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2022-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46402674","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}
