Cheryl Long (Xiamen University) - Information Effects of High-Speed Rail: Evidence from Patent Citations and Innovation

Date and Time: September 27th, 2019, 3:00 - 5:00 pm

Room: A 101 in the Economics Building (Museum)

Abstract

Using high speed rail connection information and patent citation data, we find robust patterns linking direct HSR connection with increased patent citations between Chinese cities. Furthermore, HSR connection is shown to slow down the delay in knowledge diffusion over distance. And in turn, increased patent citations help promote innovation. The heterogeneity in the effects of HSR connection is also largely in line with expectations, with industries with higher transportation costs and faster technological upgrading experiencing larger impact of HSR connection.
Huibin Chang (Dongbei University of Finance and Economics (DUFE)) - The welfare effect and the wider impact of regulating low-skilled migration

Date and Time: September 18th, 2019, 3:00 - 5:00 pm

Room: A 101 in the Economics Building (Museum)

Abstract

We examine the general equilibrium and welfare effects of various public policies that either restrict or facilitate migration on migrant workers and local residents. We do so by building a carefully estimated and calibrated computable general equilibrium model and then carrying out policy simulations using Shanghai as an example. Specifically, we use our model to answer whether restricting low-skilled worker in-flow would benefit or hurt local residents of different skill types.
Eiji Ogawa (Hitotsubashi University) - Effects of US Interest Rate Hikes and Global Risk on Daily Capital Flows in Emerging Market Countries

Date and Time: September 16th, 2019, 4:00 - 6:00 pm

Room: A 101 in the Economics Building (Museum)

Abstract

The interest rate hikes in the United States and higher global risk aversion have increased capital outflows from emerging market countries in recent years. This paper attempts to investigate the effects of global risk and interest rate hikes in the United States on capital flows in emerging market countries on a daily basis during a period from 11 November 2015 to 2 October 2018. Vector Autoregressive (VAR) models are employed to obtain the following main empirical results. Firstly, we found that ...
