With a panel of 18 OECD countries, 1980–2005, we investigate the determinants of export performance, in particular the effects of the size of government and institutional features. In a model of endogenous extent of domestically-produced goods, gover... Read More about Government size, institutions and export performance among OECD economies.

This choice interacts with and exacerbates the effects of status, with implications...

Current accounts in the long run and the intertemporal approach: a panel data investigation (2015)
Journal Article
Tsoukis, C., Cerrato, M., Kalyoncu, H., & Hassan Naqvi, N. (2015). Current accounts in the long run and the intertemporal approach: a panel data investigation. World Economy, 38(2), 340-359. https://doi.org/10.1111/twec.12152

This paper is a theory-based study of the long-run determinants of the current account (CA). For many OECD economies after the Second World War, there has been more long-run variation in the CA data than is emphasised by a ‘Permanent Income’ version...
