    Asian Development Review: Studies of Asian and Pacific Economic Issues

    Panagariya, Arvind | June 2000
    Abstract
    The paper provides a summary of all the papers in this special volume. It also gives a brief theoretical introduction to the subject of growth, inequality, and poverty, including the neoclassical growth and new growth theories. It discusses the relationship between growth and inequality, and presents empirical evidence that argues that growth does not lead to inequality. The reverse causation from inequality to growth is also examined. The Dollar and Kraay methodology, which concludes that growth is good for the poor, is also reviewed. Finally, the paper argues that the emphasis on pro-poor growth policies will reduce poverty more rapidly than simple reliance on the trickle down effect. However, poverty reduction with growth also depends on initial inequalities and assets.

      This paper examines the relationships between economic growth, income distribution, and poverty for 17 Asian countries for the period 1981–2001. It deals with two distinct but related issues. First, it investigates how much growth is required to offset the adverse effect of an increase in inequality on poverty. This trade-off between inequality and growth is quantified using a tool called the ...

      Wang, Jianxin (Asian Development Bank, 2011-08-27)
      This paper examines volatility forecasting for the broad market indices of 12 Asian stock markets. After considering the long memory in volatility and volatility jumps, the paper incorporates local, regional, and global factors into a heterogeneous autoregressive model for volatility forecasting. Compared to several existing studies, the model produces smaller forecasting errors. The empirical ...
