The Impact

This paper investigates the impact of remittance inflows on economic growth and poverty reduction for seven African countries using annual data from 1992-2010. By using the depth of hunger as a proxy for poverty in a Simultaneous Equation Model (SEM), we find that remittances have statistically significant growth enhancing and poverty reducing impact. Drawing on our estimates, we conclude that financial development level significantly increases the remittances inflows and strengthens poverty alleviating impact of remittances. Results of our study further show a signficant interactive imapct of remittances and finacial develpment on economic growth, suggesting the substitutability between remittance inflows and financial development. We further find that 3 percentage point increase in credit provision to the private sector (financial development) can help eliminate the severe depth of hunger in the region. Remittances, serving an alternative source of private credit, can be effective in this regard. Keywords: Remittance Inflow, Poverty Alleviation, Financial Development, Simultaneous Equation Model

Asian Economies

This paper attempts to determine empirically whether China is taking foreign direct investment (FDI) away from other Asian economies (the “China effect”). A random-effects simultaneous equation model, controlling for the determinants of inward FDI of eight East and Southeast Asian economies over 1985–2001 and using China's inward FDI as an indicator of the China effect, indicates that China's FDI level is positively related to these economies' FDI levels and negatively related to their shares in FDI in Asia. Moreover, openness, corporate tax rates, and corruption can exert a greater influence on these countries' FDI than China's FDI.

This research aims to determine the effect of allocation of special Autonomy Fund in Education, special autonomy Fund in health education and special autonomy fund in the field of infrastructure education to economic growth directly or indirectly through the human development index in Merauke Regency. The type of data used is data time series and data collection is done by the documentation method. Data was analyzed using the simultaneous equation model approach with the help of SPSS Amos 21 software. The results showed that the special Autonomy fund variable has been positively significant to the economic growth directly, indirectly through the human development Index of Special Autonomy Fund fields Education is not significant to economic growth. Health special Autonomy fund variables and special autonomy fund infrastructure areas are directly significant to economic growth. Meanwhile, indirectly through human development index a variable of special autonomy fund in Health and Special Autonomy fund areas of infrastructure are positively significant to the economic growth Key words: Special autonomy, human development index, economic growth

This study aims to explain the determinants of economic growth and poverty in West Sumatra. This study using Simultaneous Equation Model to determine the effect of exogenous variables on endogenous variable, the analysis uses Indirect Least Square (ILS) method. This study uses a data panel (cross section and time series) sourced from the Central Statistics Agency of West Sumatra. The analysis results show that labor, investment, and unemployment has a significant effect on economic growth, otherthat investment, unemployment, and education has a significant effect on poverty, and poverty has a significant effect on economic growth.

The effect of human capital on economic growth has been an issue since the existence of endogenous growth theories that include human capital as a factor of production. Likewise with the influence of human capital on labor demand. Different results from the theory are sometimes found, especially in the case of developing countries. Research that using workers' variables by calculating the underemployment rate is still rarely conducted in Indonesia. This study uses labor data in Indonesia at the provincial level from 1996 to 2018. The labor variable used takes into account open unemployment and underemployment rates. Educational variables are used to proxy human capital. Using the simultaneous equation model, we find a significant relationship between human capital factors on economic growth and labor demand. The higher the education level of the workforce, the greater the influence donated on economic growth.

Unrestricted trade stimulates economic growth and bridges socio-economic gaps existing in different countries of the world. Pakistan has adopted trade liberalization policies since the late 1980s with the same expectations. This study has empirically analyzed how trade liberalization has affected economic development in the country. Its effects have been examined with respect to four measures of economic development: per capita GDP, income inequality, poverty and employment over the period from 1960-2003. The main analysis is based on a simultaneous equation model. Keeping in view the simultaneity of the chosen development measures, the model is estimated with the 2SLS technique of regression analysis. The analysis shows that, over the study period, trade liberalization has not affected all the chosen indicators of development uniformly. It has affected employment positively but per capita GDP and income distribution negatively. However, it has not affected poverty in any way. The obvious message is that trade liberalization has not affected all the indicators of development favorably in Pakistan. It thus implies the need of a cautious move towards liberalization. The focus of trade liberalization should be to bring about improvement in the performance of mediating factors and to focus exports on labor-intensive products.
