Market structure dynamics in Indian industry

Article Abstract:

Structural changes in Indian industries for the period 1974-1985 were examined using an error correction model. The model assumes that changes in concentration ratios (CRs) are partly due to the variation between actual and long-run CRs and partly in response to the change in the long-run CR. Results showed that changes in industry structure in India are associated with both significant changes of the long-run CR and towards the long-run CR. Furthermore, excess market shares are common in most industries.

Multivariate cointegration approach to the determination of reserves and bank credit: a case study of Turkey

Article Abstract:

A multivariate cointegration approach was used to develop a methodology for determining both long- and short-run reserves and money supply. The approach analyzed bank reserves data in Turkey between 1960 and 1988. An economic model based on the results of the approach indicated that new Turkish monetary policies should treat money supply as an endogenous variable but price levels should be treated as exogenous variables. Other key implications of the study are discussed.
