There is growing evidence from multi‐country studies indicating that there is a turning point in the relationship between inflation and economic growth beyond which the detrimental effects of high inflation offset the stimulating effects of mild inflation on growth. However, it is not clear whether it is appropriate to assume an identical turning point in the inflation and growth relation across countries at various stages of development. Using a non‐linear specification and the data from four… Expand

Inflation–growth relationship in selected Asian developing countries: evidence from panel data
We question the empirical foundation of keeping inflation at 5% or below in developing economies. Using System Generalized Method of Moments we investigate the issue in the context of 14 Asian… Expand
Threshold Effects of Inflation on Economic Growth in Africa : Evidence from a Dynamic Panel Threshold Regression Approach Arcade
This study examines nonlinearities in the inflation-growth nexus in Africa. A dynamic panel threshold regression is applied to account for the potential endogeneity bias in the model. The findings of… Expand
