Currency The present paper analyzes the role of imports in the occurrence of a currency crisis. For this, it extends a third generation model with balance sheet effects by introducing imports as foreign inputs in the production function. The results show that when imported inputs are financed by foreign debt the probability of a currency crisis increases for two reasons. First, the currency depreciation creates negative balance sheet effects if the price elasticity of imports is low. Second, the currency depreciation lowers the capital available for production and hence implies a direct negative effect on output. Moreover, in order to avoid a crisis monetary policy must be more aggressive compared to the case without foreign inputs.crises and monetary policy: the role of foreign inputs pp. 2008-2015

In recent years, the Sustainable Development Goals has managed to shepherd the reduction of energy poverty and extension of sustainable energy, making both international objectives. Using two-period data collected in Bangladesh, we assess the impact of the solar home system (SHS), a promising technology to facilitate multidimensional outcomes from both monetary and non-monetary aspects such as education, health, and security. The results revealed that SHS contributes to the reduced consumption of cow dung and kerosene; extended study hours for children aged 6–15 years; and increased non-farm income and expenditures on food, clothing, and education. However, no significant effect was observed on security and health conditions pp. 995-1013
