Smooth transition effects in price transmission: The case of international wheat export prices

Author

  • Ghoshray, Atanu

Abstract

International wheat prices are tested for cointegration allowing for exponential smooth transition adjustment. The results suggest that owing to transactions costs, it is plausible that arbitrage will be greater, the further the prices deviate from each other.
