  • Foreign Direct Investment and Economic Growth in Guyana

    Open AccessRegan Deonanan, Daren A Conrad et al.ARTICLEThe Review of Black Political…2022

    This paper empirically examines how financial sector development affects the FDI-economic growth nexus in Guyana. The novelty is that we examine the relationship in a poor, Small Island Developing State (SIDS) with an underdeveloped financial sector, and where the bulk of FDI flows to the extractive sector. Using annual data from 1981 to 2014, and, both a VECM and ARDL framework that distinguishes among long-run and short-run causal impacts, we p…

The fi…

    Homeownership, a primary component of household wealth, confers benefits not just in terms of the value of home equity itself, but also the tax benefits and inflation protection associated with owning property. The 1990s represented a booming time in the economy and record low interest rates which allowed homeownership to become more available to more people than ever. As a result, the US housing market experienced significant growth and home val…

  • The spatial impact of revitalization on the likelihood of homeownership

    Daren A Conrad, Betty P Alleyne et al.ARTICLECommunity Development2011Cited by: 2References: 10

    This study examines whether the distance between a neighborhood with revitalization activity and the adjacent non-revitalized neighborhoods is a significant determinant of the likelihood of homeownership in those adjacent neighborhoods. Given that a household maximizes its utility by consuming housing services and all other goods and services, this study hypothesizes that in some neighborhoods, distance from amenities created through revitalizati…
