Non-linear oil price transformations

Chapter 88 in Elgar Encyclopedia of Energy Economics, 2025, pp 348-351 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: This entry describes and motivates the mainstream non-linear oil price transformations introduced in the empirical oil economics and oil finance literatures. Such measures are commonly used as censored regressors in models to test whether only certain oil price movements matter to the economy and stock market. Then, the findings of some prominent studies that have adopted these non-linear measures in regression modelling are summarised. Subsequently, the main estimation problem that arises with regressions that make use of censored regressors is documented. Finally, coverage of some innovative directions that the non-linear oil price measures have taken in recent research are provided.
