Covid 19 implications on credit loss provisioning rules under IFRS 9: Pro-cyclicality concerns

2024-08-01T09:39:44+00:00

The objective of this paper is to analyse the procyclicality behavior of Expected Credit Loss (ECL) model introduced by IFRS 9, during the economic downturn due to the Covid 19 pandemic. A regression analysis was conducted on a dataset gathered from euro era in order to investigate the hypothesis suggesting that the new model does not exhibit a procyclical behavior.

Exploring the link between financial inclusion and food security in Algeria: A VECM approach

2024-08-01T09:43:00+00:00

This study explores the link between financial inclusion and food security in Algeria from 2003 to 2022. Using a composite financial inclusion index and the Vector Error Correction Model (VECM), we analyse the data, subjecting it to various diagnostic tests. Surprisingly, our results reveal that financial inclusion (FI) has a significant and positive impact on undernourishment prevalence, indicating a negative effect on food security in both the short and long term. Likewise, food imports (FIM) contribute to higher undernourishment prevalence, implying a weakening of food security in the long-run. Conversely, unemployment rate (UEM) and food production (FOP) show no substantial long-term impact on food security, although UEM has an opposing effect in the short run, meaning it improves food security at the short term; which can be attributed to the informal economy and other State’s policies. Notably, income per capita (INCAPITA) negatively affects undernourishment prevalence, improving food security. These findings offer a nuanced understanding of the complex relationship between financial inclusion and food security in Algeria, emphasizing the need for multifaceted, contextspecific policies to address the country's unique challenges.
