This paper analyzes exchange-rate dynamics following a money-based disinflation under different degrees of exchange-rate pass-through. Using a microfounded dynamic general equilibrium model with imperfect competition and nominal rigidities, it is shown that a monetary slowdown causes an appreciation of the exchange rate and a short-run fall in employment. Varying the degree of pass-through, however, significantly alters the magnitudes of these effects. As the degree of pass-through is reduced, the extent of the short-run appreciation of the exchange rate increases and the short-run impact of the disinflation on employment falls.

Testing the quantity theory of money in Greece
Ozmen, E (Informa UK Limited, 2003-12-15)
This paper investigates whether the Greek data actually support the monetarist hypotheses as argued by Karfakis. The results based on both ARDL and Johansen procedures consistently suggest that money and nominal income (prices) are endogenous for the parameters of the long-run evolution of velocity (real money balances). Thus, the basic postulation of monetarism, the exogeneity of money, appears not to be supported by the Greek data.
Stochastic optimization applied to self-financing portfolio: does bequest matter?
Gazioglu, Saziye; Bastiyali-Hayfavi, Azize (Informa UK Limited, 2010-01-01)
The article studies stochastic optimization of an intertemporal consumption model to allocate financial assets between risky and risk-free assets. We use a stochastic optimization technique, in which utility is maximized subject to a self-financing portfolio constraint. The papers in literature have estimated the errors of Euler equations using data from financial markets. It has been shown that it is sufficient to test the first order Euler equation implied by the model. However, they all assume a constant...
Unconventional monetary policy and financialization of commodities
Ordu-Akkaya, Beyza Mina; Soytaş, Uğur (Elsevier BV, 2020-01-01)
Our paper has two stages of analysis. First of all, we examine whether volatility spillover between US equity and commodity markets has significantly changed with the heavy influx of index traders in commodity derivatives markets, which is a phenomenon referred to as financialization. Given that previous findings show institutional traders enter into commodity markets at high liquidity episodepbs, in the second stage of our analysis, we investigate the particular impact of US quantitative easing policy on s...
Unit roots or nonlinear stationarity in Turkish real exchange rates
Erlat, Haluk (Informa UK Limited, 2004-08-15)
The objective of this paper is to test if Turkish real exchange rates have a linear unit root or are generated by an Exponential Smooth Transition Autoregressive Model for the post-1980 period. Using two real exchange rates, one with the USA and the other with Germany, strong evidence of nonlinear stationarity was found for the US CPI-based series but no such evidence for the DM CPI-based series. When compared with earlier results in a previous paper where the alternative of the linear unit root test was st...
CP-violating effects in b decays beyond the standard model
Bashiry, Valı; Alıyev, Tahmasıb; Department of Physics (2005)
In this thesis, using a general model independent form of the effective Hamiltonian, the CP-violating asymmetries in the b -> d l l transition, when one of the leptons is polarized, is investigated. The sensitivity of the CP-violating asymmetries on the new Wilson coefficients are analyzed. Next, in the frame work of the same formalism, the polarized lepton pair forwardاbackward asymmetries in B->K l l decay are studied. We present the general expression for the nine doubleاpolarization forwardاbackward asy...
