We analyze time-varying exchange rate co-movements and volatility spillovers between the Czech koruna, the Polish zloty, the Hungarian forint and the dollar/euro from 1999 to 2016. We apply the dynamic conditional correlations (DCC) model and the Diebold Yilmaz spillover index to examine the periods prior to and during the GFC, plus during and after the EU debt crisis. We found declining conditional correlations between new EU exchange rates prior to both crises. During the GFC and the European debt crisis, the correlations reach the lowest level, and increase afterwards. Based on the DCC model results we calculate portfolio weights and hedge ratios. We show that during both crises portfolio diversification benefits increase but hedging costs rise as well. Based on the spillover index we document that during calm periods most of the volatilities are due to each currency's own history. However, during the distress periods volatility spillovers among currencies increase substantially. Terms of use: Documents in

“…These effects differ according to gender: girls gain from modern practices and lose from traditional ones, while boys do not benefit from any particular teaching style. Korbel and Paulus (2017) investigated the effect of teaching practices on non-cognitive skills using Czech data and found that the effects are different by gender.…”

Educational policies and the gender gap in test scores: a cross-country analysis

Girls tend to outperform boys in reading tests, while they usually lag behind boys in mathematics. However, the size of the gender gap varies to a great extent between countries. While the existing figliterature explains these differences as being mainly due to cultural factors, this paper explores whether this cross-country variation is related to educational policies like tracking, grade retention, and individualised teaching practices. The gender test score gap is analysed in mathematics, reading and science using the PISA 2012 dataset. Multilevel models are used in the estimation. The results suggest that the extent of the gender gap is indeed associated with certain characteristics of the various education systems. First, applying a difference-in-differences estimation method, it was found that early tracking has a direct effect on the gender gap in test scores, in favour of girls. Second, suggestive evidence shows that more student-oriented teaching practices also benefit girls relative to boys, both between and within countries, and within schools. Finally, grade retention is correlated with the gender gap, though there is further evidence suggesting that this correlation is very unlikely to represent a causal effect. ARTICLE HISTORY

“…We assume three types of inflation benchmarks: (i) the cross-sectional average (Kočenda and Papell, 1997;Lopez and Papell, 2012), (ii) the inflation target of "below, but close to, 2% over the medium term" as pursued by the European Central Bank, 5 and (iii) the inflation rate based on the 4 We opt for the HICP measure over the Consumer Price Index since the Maastricht convergence criteria explicitly operate with HICP and approaches to CPI measurement differ across countries. We acknowledge that HICP is partly comprised of very volatile food and energy prices and we address this shortcoming by employing a core inflation measure as a robustness check for the post-crisis period.…”

We provide comprehensive evidence of the widespread occurrence of inflation convergence between all countries of the European Union from 1999 to 2016. We also show that convergence was more inclusive in the years after the global financial crisis-including the European sovereign debt crisis and the period of zero lower bound-and that price-stabilityoriented monetary strategies might have in fact facilitated this convergence. Our results are robust with respect to the use of three inflation benchmarks (the cross-sectional average, the inflation target of the European Central Bank, and the Maastricht criterion), structural breaks, and a core inflation measure. Our main findings imply that further enlargement of the euro area is feasible from the perspective of the convergence of inflation rates between the countries of the European Union.
