What Happened in Cyprus?
What Happened in Cyprus? Alexander Michaelides1 Imperial College Business School, University of Cyprus, CEPR, CFS and NETSPAR 15 March 2014 Abstract This is a case study of how a country nearly reached bankruptcy in March 2013, within five years from entering the Eurozone. The magnitude of the requested assistance is extremely large relative to GDP (100%) and studying this event provides useful lessons for avoiding such crises in the future. The crisis resulted from a worsening European economic environment (especially in Greece), bad choices with regards to public finances, weak corporate governance within the local banking sector, inadequate and/or difficult regulation of cross-border banking, worsening competitiveness, and bad political decisions at the European and, especially, the local (Cypriot) level. Local politics, reflected in short term political calculations and/or inadequate understanding of the magnitude of the crisis, delayed corrective action for 18 months until election time, making a bad situation almost impossible to deal with. Overconfidence can be one behavioural explanation for why local politicians ignored the dramatic costs of inaction. 1 Imperial College London Business School, South Kensington Campus, London, SW7 2AZ: [email protected].

Determinants of Bilateral Trade Between China and Yemen: Evidence from Var Model
International Journal of Economics, Commerce and Management United Kingdom Vol. V, Issue 5, May 2017 http://ijecm.co.uk/ ISSN 2348 0386 DETERMINANTS OF BILATERAL TRADE BETWEEN CHINA AND YEMEN: EVIDENCE FROM VAR MODEL Abdullah A. S. Mudhish College of Economics and Trade, Hunan University, China [email protected] Zhang Ya Bin The Dean, College of Economics and Trade, Hunan University, China Abstract This study investigates determinants of bilateral trade between China and Yemen providing empirical assessment of the extent to which economic fundamentals impact and influence the volume of trade between the two countries with a focus on the impact of GDP growth on exports and imports. Applying the Vector Autoregression (VAR) model, this study estimates the effect magnitude of economic growth both in China and Yemen on their bilateral trade in addition to the analysis of the impact of other control variables included in the study. The results of the Vector Auto regression VAR model imply that China real GDP positively impacts Yemen exports to China while Yemen real GDP is a determinant of Yemen imports from China. While real bilateral exchange rate has ambiguous impact on exports and imports, the real oil price negatively impact trade between the two countries. Keywords: China, Yemen, Exports, Imports, Trade, Vector Autoregression, GDP, Exchange rates, Oil price INTRODUCTION China witnessed huge economic growth and expansion during the last two decades and it has become the world’s second largest economy, and after its accession to World Trade Organization WTO in 2001, China has become the world’s largest exporter according to most recent trade statistics. -

Accession to EMU - Lessons to Learn for Romania
Bulletin UASVM Horticulture, 69(2)/2012 Print ISSN 1843-5254; Electronic ISSN 1843-5394 Accession to EMU - Lessons to Learn for Romania Roxana BADIRCEA1) 1) Faculty of Economic and Business Administration, University of Craiova, A.I.Cuza, no.13; [email protected]. Abstract. Among the countries that became UE members in 2004, five of them, namely: Cyprus, Malta, Slovenia, Slovakia and Estonia also adopted Euro. The paper analyses the way these states accomplished the convergence criteria in order to emphasize the difficulties they encountered and how they solved all these problems, lessons to learn for Romania in the EMU integration process. Keywords: EMU, accession, convergence criteria, inflation, budget deficit, long-term interest rates, gross public debt INTRODUCTION After their accession to the EU in 2004, the new ten member states intensified their efforts to enter the Exchange Rate Mechanism II – regarded as a “waiting room” of the euro area that offers at best little value-added and may even entail certain risks (Backé, P. et all., 2004). During this time, the economic, financial and institutional differences between those countries and those belonging to the euro area were significant, and consequently, the efforts to achieve the convergence increased, but many times, implying high costs. The fundamental characteristic of the ten countries that joined the EU in 2004, compared to the twelve states, already part of the Economic and Monetary Union, was the high difference between the levels of development measured through the GDP/capita. In addition to the fact that certain sectors of the economy of these countries had not gotten completely past the transition process to the market economy, there was the danger that once the convergence process had accelerated, the level of volatility of the economic growth would increase. -

Cypriot banking system in general and the situation around the globe that helped shape the crisis will form part of the project. Situation around Europe, Admittance into EU and ultimately Euro played an equally important part in the financial crisis history of the country.
