  • The Heterogeneous Effects of Uncertainty on Trade

    Open AccessIbrahim Nana, Rasmané Ouedraogo et al.ARTICLEWorld Economy2025

    This paper explores the relationship between uncertainty and trade by employing a gravity model across 143 countries from 1980 to 2021. The results confirm that uncertainty generally negatively impacts trade. Specifically, a one‐standard‐deviation increase in global uncertainty is associated with a 2.6% decline in bilateral trade, with the trade of mineral fuels being the most affected. The article delves deeper into the analysis, revealing that …

The paper provides strong evidence that conflicts an…

  • Aid, growth and institutions in Sub‐Saharan Africa

    Open AccessRasmané Ouedraogo, Windemanegda Sandrine Sourouema et al.ARTICLEWorld Economy2021

    Numerous sub‐Saharan African countries depend heavily on foreign aid. This paper explores the impact of foreign aid on economic growth in the continent using a finite mixture model. Contrary to previous studies, we hypothesise that the effect of aid on growth differs across groups of countries with similar but unobserved characteristics. The paper incorporates the potential presence of hidden heterogeneity and tries to explain group membership of…
