  • Do remittance inflows reduce growth instability in Sub-Saharan Africa

    Open AccessRelwendé Sawadogo, Gervasio Semedo et al.ARTICLEHumanities and Social Sciences…2026

    Remittances have become one of the most important sources of development finance in developing countries, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa. They provide a stable source of household income for consumption and can therefore play a role in stabilizing economic cycles. Indeed, migrant remittance flows can alleviate economic growth instability by easing constraints on domestic resources and indirectly increase growth instability through real exchan…

  • Effect of Public Education Expenditure on Income Inequality in Low‐Income Countries

    Open AccessRelwendé Sawadogo, Thierno Thioune et al.ARTICLEJournal of Public Affairs2026

    This paper aims to analyse the distributional effects of public social expenditure. To this end, it explores the conditional effects of education expenditure on income inequality in 42 low‐income countries from 1998 to 2022. It is innovative compared to previous work in that it uses both a parametric method (instrumental variable method) and a semi‐parametric method (Smoothed Instrumental Variables Quantile Regression). The findings indicate that…

  • Tax Revenue Mobilization in Developing Countries

    Tobignaré Yabré, Salamata Loaba et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of Public…2026

    In developing economies with limited resources and tax compliance challenges, we examine how involving multiple veto players within the governance framework influences tax revenue. We performed a dynamic panel model on 104 countries and showed that tax revenue reacts positively to the size of political veto players. Our analysis also reveals a nonlinear effect indicating an optimal balance of veto points. This balance highlights the need for a go…

  • Political stability and fiscal consolidation in sub‐Saharan African countries

    Open AccessTobignaré Yabré, Gervasio SemedoARTICLEWorld Economy2021

    Fiscal policy decision‐making in sub‐Saharan African countries has not always been understood, and the existing literature has generally emphasised the role of macroeconomic factors to justify government fiscal performances. This study highlights the essential role of political stability in the fiscal consolidation decision‐making process in sub‐Saharan African countries. We perform a panel logit model for twenty‐seven (27) sub‐Saharan African co…

  • Les transferts de fonds des migrants influencent-ils la qualité des institutions dans les pays récipiendaires

    Joseph Attila, Joseph G Attila et al.ARTICLEMondes en développement2018References: 23

    Cet article réexamine l'effet des transferts de migrants (TFM) sur la qualité des institutions. Nous utilisons différentes variables de qualité institutionnelle et l'analyse porte sur un large panel de 102 pays sur la période 1990-2015. Les résultats obtenus à l'aide des régressions à effets fixes et de la méthode des variables instrumentales suggèrent que les TFM détériorent la qualité des institutions des pays récipiendaires. Il en découle d'im…

  • Chocs, chocs de volatilité et contagion entre les marchés boursiers

    Kamel Malik Bensafta, Gervasio Semedo et al.ARTICLERevue économique2011References: 7

    Cet article étudie, à travers un échantillon de onze indices, la dynamique multi-variée des rendements de différents marchés boursiers d’Europe, d’Amérique du Nord et d’Asie entre 1985 et 2007, particulièrement en période de crise. Les moyennes conditionnelles des rendements des marchés sont modélisées à l’aide d’une spécification var contrainte, tandis que leurs variances conditionnelles sont modélisées par une spécification garch multi-variée. …
