TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluate the case for greater exchange rate coordination in South Asia and find limited evidence of comovement of South Asian currencies in nominal terms, while the evidence for degree of co-movement is slightly stronger in real terms.
Abstract: This paper evaluates the case for greater exchange rate coordination in South Asia. With inter-regional integration in South Asia progressing at a faster pace than the region’s integration with the world as well as the economies of South Asia being buffeted by similar external shocks there is a need for greater exchange rate cooperation among the economies of the region, while retaining the flexibility to adjust to external currencies. Using empirical methods, we find limited evidence of co-movement of South Asian currencies in nominal terms, while the evidence for degree of co-movement is slightly stronger in real terms. Much of the divergence in the movement of currencies is derived from the varied exchange rates being pursued in these economies. While India has increasingly moved towards a more flexible exchange rate regime, Bangladesh, Pakistan and Sri Lanka, continue to remain pegged to US Dollar.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore the nexus between gender-energy-poverty, highlight areas of gender concern, and suggest actions to universalize modern energy services with specific emphasis to women.
Abstract: There is a growing consensus that universalisation of modern energy services is central to reducing major elements of poverty and hunger, increasing literacy and education, and improving health care, employment opportunities, and lives of women and children. In India, more than 700 million people lack access to modern energy services for lighting, cooking, water pumping and other productive purposes. Without these services people-most often women-are forced to spend significant amount of their time and energy on subsistence activities. This acts as a barrier to the gender development. Although the links between gender, poverty and energy have been studied by many authors, not many have come out with practical solutions. The present paper explores the nexus between gender-energy-poverty, highlights areas of gender concern, and suggests actions. We analyse how women from rural areas and low income households are at the receiving ends of energy poverty. We then analyse the roles of different stakeholders in universalizing modern energy services with specific emphasis to women. We argue how women self help groups can be a vital link in large scale diffusion of energy efficient and renewable technologies. The paper concludes with policy prescriptions of sustainable development and gender empowerment through energy solutions.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the relationship between formal agricultural credit and agricultural GDP in India, specifically the role of the former in supporting agricultural growth, using state level panel data covering the period 1995-96 to 2011-12.
Abstract: This study examines the nature of the relationship between formal agricultural credit and agricultural GDP in India, specifically the role of the former in supporting agricultural growth, using state level panel data covering the period 1995-96 to 2011-12. The study uses a mediation analysis framework to map the pathways through which institutional credit relates to agricultural GDP relying on a control function approach to tackle the problem of endogeneity.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a nonlinear optimal control method for the dynamics of coupled time-delayed models of economic growth, where the interaction terms between the local models are related to the transfer of capitals between the individual economies.
Abstract: The article proposes a novel nonlinear optimal control method for the dynamics of coupled time-delayed models of economic growth. Distributed and interacting capital–labor models of economic growth are considered. Such models comprise as main variables the accumulated physical capital and labor. The interaction terms between the local models are related to the transfer of capitals between the individual economies. Each model is also characterized by time delays between its state variables and its outputs. To implement the proposed control method, the state-space description of the interconnected growth models undergoes approximate linearization around a temporary operating point which is updated at each iteration of the control algorithm. This linearization point is defined by the present value of the system’s state vector and by the last sampled value of the control inputs vector. The linearization process relies on first-order Taylor series expansion and on the computation of the related Jacobian matrices. For the approximately linearized state-space description of the coupled time-delayed growth models, a stabilizing H-infinity (optimal) controller is designed. This controller provides the solution to the nonlinear optimal control problem for the coupled time-delayed growth models under uncertainty and perturbations. To compute the stabilizing gains of the H-infinity feedback controller, an algebraic Riccati equation is solved repetitively at each iteration of the control algorithm. The global stability properties of the proposed control scheme for the coupled time-delayed models of economic growth are proven through Lyapunov analysis.
