Abstract:

The article deals with different interpretations of peculiarities of individuals' financial behaviour. The adaptability of Efficient Market Hypothesis (rational and irrational investors' behaviour and their influence on market efficiency) and Behavioural Finance (by separating into two building blocks: Cognitive Biases and Limits of Arbitrage) to individuals' financial behaviour interpretation is summarized and compared as well as basic theories defining individuals' financial behaviour: Absolute Income Hypotheses (John M. Keynes), Life Cycle Hypothesis (Franco Modigliani and Richard Brumberg)

Abstract:

This paper documents three facts. First, the volatility of consumption growth relative to income growth rose from 1947 to 1960 and then fell dramatically by 50% from the 1960s to the 1990s. Second, the correlation between consumption growth and personal income growth fell by about 50% over the same time period. Finally, the absolute deviation of consumption growth from its mean exhibits one break in U.S. data, and the mean of the absolute deviations has fallen by about 30%. A standard dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model is unable to explain these facts. I examine ability of two hypoth

This paper focuses on income inequality and intergenerational mobility in Bangladesh and selected countries. Using mainly the Global Database on Intergenerational Mobility, produced by the World Bank, the paper compares the performance of Bangladesh in absolute and relative mobility in education and income with selected countries. The paper also estimates simple and “augmented Gatsby equations” to examine the relationship between income inequality and relative mobility in education and income.

The explanatory power of institutional and macroeconomic variables for FDI stock accumulation in developing countries is investigated.

The impact of institutional variables on FDI flows produced mixed results: levels of economic freedom facilitate inward FDI; political risk dampens investment. Some macroeconomic variables displayed significant explanatory power: market size (as measured by per capita income in the base year) and absolute growth of GDP positively impacts FDI inflows.

It is found that IERs differ widely across regions and across pollutants, and do not usually conform to the shape implied by the Environmental Kuznets’s Curve hypothesis.

Abstract:

Abstract The present study aimed to analyze the evolution of the implementation of Family Health and Primary Health Care Expanded Support Centers (NASF-AB, in Portuguese) in the municipalities of Southern Brazil, from 2008 to 2019, in light of the inverse equity hypothesis. This was an ecological study, considering 1,188 municipalities of Southern Brazil. The analyses were separated by state, with municipalities divided into quartiles of Municipal Human Development Index - Income (MHDI-Income). Our study calculated the cumulative percentage of the implementation of NASF-AB within the given per

Abstract:

Households are economic actors that play a significant role in the economic condition. Thus, households’ consumption expenditures are a variable that deserves a through analysis in an economy. This study aims to identify the impact of financial technology on household consumption by using the theory of the absolute income hypothesis. We use the partial adjustment model (PAM) approach and the Chow test to detect the structural change on households’ consumption function in Indonesia with the observation period of 1990–2017. The results demonstrate that Indonesian households’consumption function

Abstract:

<p>This study investigates the effectiveness of semivariance versus mean-variance optimisation on a risk-adjusted basis on the JSE. We compare semivariance and mean-variance optimisation prior to, during and after the recent financial crisis period. Additionally, we investigate the inclusion of a fixed-income asset in the optimal portfolio. The results suggest that semivariance optimisation on the JSE in a pure equity case produces lower absolute returns, yet superior risk-adjusted returns. Further investigation suggests that semivariance metrics are effective within a certain range of p

Abstract:

Purpose: The relative income hypothesis theorises that one’s earnings relative to others exert a greater influence on subjective wellbeing than absolute income. Understanding the relationship between relative income and mental health could contribute to employee wellbeing. This review aimed to summarise the defining features of relative income in relation to mental health and how it is measured in the literature. In addition, it aimed to explore the relationship between relative income and mental health in those currently employed in the UK. Methods: Nine electronic databases were searched usi

This study seeks to determine the exact impact of inflation, interest rate and disposable income on consumer spending in Malaysia. Although there have been few studies which explored the issue of inflation, interest rate, disposable income and consumer spending, their method, time scope and geographical location had been different. This study aims to examine the relationship of inflation (CPI), interest rate, disposable income (GDP per capita) with consumer spending in Malaysia using annual time series data from the period 1980 to 2022 and employing Ordinary Least Square (OLS) and Granger Caus

AbstractA number of developing countries have come to face the growing problems of municipal solid waste management caused by rapid economic growth. Although there are many studies on the environmental Kuznets curve, very few address the issue of municipal solid waste, and there is still controversy concerning the validity of the waste version of the Kuznets curve hypothesis. It is demonstrated that the turning point for household municipal solid waste is approximately 3.7 million yen per person, which is far less than the maximum income in the sample and valid evidence for absolute decoupling

Abstract:

In this manuscript, the authors face the following research question: do consumer protection and consumer confidence have predictive power on household consumption? In order to provide an answer, the authors adopted a proper mathematical-statistical method. In particular, they collected cross-sectional data on 27 European countries and then estimated a consumption function accounting for both the Post-Keynesian Absolute Income Hypothesis and the Neoclassical Life-Cycle Hypothesis. This consumption function comprises, as a control variable, the Consumer Conditions Index, a measure of consumer p

Abstract:

Multicollinearity widely exists in empirical studies, which leads to imprecise estimation and even endogeneity when omitted variables are correlated with any regressors. We apply an innovative strategy, different from the usual tools (instrumental variable, ridge regression, and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator), to estimate the robust determinants of income distribution. We transform panel data into (quasi-) cross-sectional data by removing country and time effects from the data so that all variables become zero mean and orthogonal to the country dummies and time variable, and

Abstract:

This study investigates the impact of income redistribution on carbon emissions across 154 countries from 1995 to 2023, with a particular focus on carbon inequality. Using a dynamic panel approach with two-step System GMM estimations, the analysis considers three dependent variables: average per capita emissions, top 1% per capita emissions, and the ratio of top 1% per capita emissions to national average per capita emissions. Results show that income redistribution (measured in both absolute and relative terms) significantly reduces average per capita emissions in the short term. However, red

Real estate taxes, as a type of tax instrument, assume the role of providing local revenue and regulating the real estate market in many countries. Out of the stimulating effect of consumption on the economy, scholars studied the impact of real estate taxes on consumption. This paper constructs a model of housing consumption expenditure applying Keynes' absolute income hypothesis. Using data from Japan, the UK and the US Office of National Statistics, an empirical study is conducted through OLS regressions, fixed effects models and random effects models. The results show that real estate taxes
