    Price Dynamics in the US Market for Apparel Imports: Impact of Quota Elimination under the Agreement on Textiles and Clothing and Safeguard Restrictions on the People’s Republic of China

    James, William E.; Hernando, Juan Paolo | May 2008
    Abstract
    C. Peter Timmer writes about the causes of high food prices, focusing on staple grains—rice in particular—and edible oils. He shows that although food prices have come down from the spikes of early 2008, they are likely to remain higher than they were in early 2007 for years to come. The paper explores the implications for policy and includes a technical appendix that provides the analytical framework of this analysis.

      Songco, Danilo A. (Philippine Institute for Development Studies, 2022-02-28)

It establishes four dimensions of empowerment that may be used to measure empowerment and presents some evidence of how government has performed under each of these dimensions. It concludes that government has been on track in following AFMA’s prescriptions for SFF ...

      The Rise of the “Redback” and the People’s Republic of China’s Capital Account Liberalization: An Empirical Analysis of the Determinants of Invoicing Currencies 

      Ito, Hiro; Chinn, Menzie (Asian Development Bank Institute, 2014-04-07)
      We investigate the determinants of currency choice for trade invoicing in a cross-country context while focusing on the link between capital account liberalization and its impact on the use of the renminbi (RMB). We find that while countries with more developed financial markets tend to invoice less in the US dollar, countries with more open capital accounts tend to invoice in either the euro or ...
