These fundamentals provide crucial knowledge regarding stock price indices by providing forecasts for the future and information on the current status of the economy. This study employs a Nonlinear Autoregressive Distributed Lags (NARDL) model to fill in the research gap by estimating the asymmetric re…

This study examines the performance of monetary policy transmission mechanisms in Indonesia from the money view. The best choice of a monetary policy transmission channel has been a topic of debate for many years among researchers as well as central banks. This is mainly due to the inconsistent performance of different channels across countries and period of time. Therefore, it is crucial for policymakers to have a prior understanding of the stre…
Asymmetric effects of exchange rate changes on the demand for divisia money in Malaysia
Financial liberalisation has advanced the transformation of the financial market as more interest-bearing financial derivatives are introduced. Performance of the equal-weighted monetary aggregates has been affected and therefore disrupted the stability of money demand. Effectiveness of monetary policy is a concern as stability of money demand is required for a stable velocity derivation. Thus, the aim of this study is to derive a stable money de…
The Impact of Divisia Money on Monetary Model of Exchange Rate in Indonesia

In this study, the monetary model of exchange rate has been utilised to determine the exchange rate for Indonesia. The model was improved by means of including the Divisia monetary aggregate as the money measure instead of conventional money supply. The ARDL approach, which was valid in spite of the variables'…
Are business forecasts of the construction sector rational? Survey-based evidence from Malaysia
This paper extends the direct measure to business expectations in assessing the doctrine of forecast rationality in the contemporary environment of Malaysia’s construction sector. The survey’s expectational series on business operational forecasts across the period 1990 to 2010 is inconsistent with Muth’s concept of rational expectations. Although strict rationality failed to be evidenced, weakly rational conduct can be observed in capital expend…
Islamic home financing in Pakistan: A SEM-based approach using modified TPB model
The present study attempts to examine the Islamic home financing using the modified theory of planned behavior model (TPB). Sample data of 375 are conveniently drawn from walk-in customers of Islamic banks located in the biggest city Karachi. This study employed both exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis to confirm the validity and reliability of the measurement model. The modified theoretical framework was examined by appl…
