This paper analyses the dynamic impact of geopolitical risks (GPRs) on real oil returns for period February 1974 to August 2017, using a time-varying parameter structural vector autoregressive (TVP-SVAR) model. Besides two variables concern, model also includes growth in world production, global economic activity (to capture oil-demand), and stock returns. We show that GPRs (based tally newspaper articles covering tensions), general, has significant negative returns, primarily due decline...

We analyse the impact of climate risks (temperature growth and its volatility) on coincident indicator 50 US states in a panel data set-up, over monthly period March, 1984 to December, 2019. Using impulse response functions (IRFs) from linear local projections (LPs) model, we show that negatively economic activity similar degree, irrespective whether such are due changes temperature or volatility. More importantly, using nonlinear LPs IRFs reveal adverse effect is contingent regimes...

Recent theoretical developments tend to suggest that rare disaster risks enhance the persistence of uncertainty. Given this, we analyse impact climate (temperature growth or its volatility), as proxies for such unusual events, on economic and policy-related uncertainty 50 US states in a panel data set-up, over monthly period 1984:03 2019:12. Using impulse response functions (IRFs) from regime-based local projections (LPs) model, show an shock itself is not only bigger magnitude when economy...

Abstract This paper explores the impact of bank digitalisation on corporate agency costs. The findings show that: (i) significantly reduces costs by improving banks' monitoring capabilities; (ii) financial regulation further lowers for firms engaging with more digitised banks; and (iii) effect between is weaker in state‐owned enterprises those short‐sighted management, but stronger greater financing constraints shorter listing durations. These results provide new evidence digitalisation's...

While there is a large body of literature on oil uncertainty-equity prices and/or returns nexus, an associated important question how market uncertainty affects stock bubbles remains unanswered. In this paper, we first use the Multi-Scale Log-Periodic Power Law Singularity Confidence Indicator (MS-LPPLS-CI) approach to detect both positive and negative in short-, medium- long-term markets G7 countries. detecting major crashes booms seven over monthly period February 1973 May 2020, also...

This paper examines the effects of climate change on income inequality in United States. Computing impulse response functions (IRFs) from local projections’ method, we empirically show that there is an immediate temporary positive rising temperatures within first year. We also observe differences temperature growth across different classifications, mainly states with high and low are more susceptible to changes than already growth. States exhibit similar low- high-temperature-growth...

Abstract This study explores the relationship and connectedness between oil returns financial stresses in six Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries using daily data from September 21, 2006 to May 31, 2019.

In addition, spillover approach examine risk transmission patterns GCC economies both time frequency domains. empirical analysis BGSVAR shows that have a...

This paper investigates both the linear and nonlinear effects of climate risk shocks on wealth inequality in UK using local projections (LPs) method, based high-frequency, i.e., monthly data. The results show that lead to an increase longer term. present some evidence heterogeneous responses variable between high- low-climate regimes. findings highlight disproportionate increased burden change households are already experiencing poverty, particularly high-climate areas. As such, measures...

Abstract We use the recently created monthly Interest Rate Uncertainty measure, to investigate monetary policy uncertainty across US, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, UK, Japan, Canada, and Sweden in both time frequency domains. find that largest spillover indices are from innovations country itself; however, there some instances where between countries large. These relationships change over we observe large variances pairwise spillovers during global financial crisis. most of volatility is...
