A chapter in Business Cycles in BRICS, 2019, pp 55-65 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The original motivation behind grouping Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa as a relevant economic entity was based on a number of similarities concerning the challenges and opportunities for growth of these emerging nations. In this chapter, we employ a methodology originally proposed be Diebold and Yilmaz in a number of papers (Diebold and Yilmaz, Econ J 119:158–171, 2009; Int J Forecast 28:57–66, 2012; J Econ 182(1):119–134, 2014) to investigate to what extent the economies of these countries are indeed related to each other, analyzing the transmission of economic “shocks” between them.
