Abstract:

This dissertation focuses on three empirical research questions regarding economic integration among the GCC countries. Chapter 2 presents the first essay, which addresses the impact of the GCC economic agreements on intra-GCC trade, non-oil trade in particular as little is known about the scope for increased non-oil trade within the GCC. The gravity model of bilateral trade flows is applied to explain patterns of trade, and possible existence of trade creation between members. Understanding the determining factors of the GCC’s non-oil trade volumes is a practical empirical task, as diversific

Abstract:

Women’s entrepreneurship is a much touted topic of research with researchers competing to contribute to the growing body of knowledge. Although literature is replete with articles and opinions on the various aspects concerning women’s entrepreneurship, still more needs to be done. Much of the research produced until now has focused on specific contexts like western countries and results obtained are either not conclusive or generalizable and in many cases incomplete. Research on women’s entrepreneurship conducted in the contexts of developing nations appears to be grossly inadequate, bordering

During recent years, GCC countries have moved to update and strengthen their systems and infrastructure for food control. Progressive efforts have been made both at national and regional level to strengthen capacity in food safety and quality. Despite the efforts of capacity building performed

Nevertheless, all these various systems have failed to eliminate the arguments between the proponents and the opponents of flexible and fixed exchange rate regimes. Although the major

Abstract:

Nominal exchange rate stability has long been considered as a policy choice for many oil-exporting economies, including the GCC countries. The main motives for such policy choices include the desire to import credibility to domestic currencies, stabilize oil revenues and in turn government revenues (given their role in fiscal budget of these oil-based economies) and to avoid Dutch disease, particularly for those countries which have been trying to promote their non-oil exports. Recently however, with respect to the GCC countries, the advantages of exchange rate stability/peg have been overshad

A large number of companies in the GCC have gone public over the last decade. There are three essays in this thesis. The first essay examines the financial and operating performance of 52 IPOs (using accounting-based measures). It compares and contrasts the performance of IPOs between the pre- and post-IPO periods.

This thesis discusses UN human rights treaty ratification in Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries. Ratification of human rights treaties by most GCC countries, often with extensive reservations concerning the compatibility of certain provisions with Islam, has generated international debate about the applicability of international human rights norms in an Islamic context. With poor compliance records, GCC cases are seen to demonstrate that global human rights norms fail to diffuse and take hold in specific local contexts.

Abstract:

The relationship between stock markets returns, economic growth and oil price volatility has been an issue of considerable debate. While there are many studies showing that oil price shocks have significant effects on the economy, fewer studies have examined the relationship between oil prices, stock markets and gross domestic product (GDP), and even less research has investigated oil as a finite resource that will one day vanish and force the oil-dependent countries to search for economic diversification of their income resources. The argument of this study is that stock market returns in th

Abstract:

Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries are the major world suppliers of petroleum and petroleum products.

Moreover, the volatility of GCC stock markets is also influenced by other important global factors, such as the Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) World index; as well as movements in international financial markets, particularly the United States (US) S&P 500 index. This thesis aims to investigate the independent relationship between oil prices and other global factors— including M
