Anastasios Koukoumelis

Applied Economics Letters, 2008, vol. 15, issue 5, 363-365

Abstract: Time-varying parameter techniques are commonly used to examine whether convergence in income has been a stable process. This article incorporates additional local features to a model studying 14 EU countries, thereby providing better estimates of the current state of the system when the relative income series are highly nonlinear.
