“The purpose of this study is to examine volatility spillover effects between stock market and foreign exchange market in selected Asian countries and regions; Pakistan, India, Sri Lanka, China, Hong Kong and Japan.”

Page 3:

“The Asian countries and regions included in this study are; China, India, Hong Kong, Japan, Pakistan and Sri Lanka. The sample constitutes developed country of Japan and emerging markets of China, India, Hong Kong, Pakistan and Sri Lanka. The sample also represents three countries from South Asia i.e. Sri Lanka, India and Pakistan; and three countries and regions from East Asia i.e. Japan, Hong Kong and China.”

Page 6: Sample selection.

“This study aims to examine Asian countries and regions. The sample includes six Asian countries and regions i.e. China, Hong Kong, Japan, Pakistan, India and Sri Lanka. The sample selection is based on idea to examine the volatility spillover in a sample of developed and emerging markets of Asia. So, the sample constitutes developed country of Japan and emerging markets of China, India, Pakistan, Hong Kong and Sri Lanka. The sample also represents three Asian countries and regions from East Asia; China, Hong Kong and Japan and the rest of the three countries i.e. Pakistan and India and Sri- Lanka from South Asia.”

Page 1: Abstract.

“This study constructs and examines the dynamics of theoretical and atheoretical measures of global liquidity, using monthly data on the components of broad money over the period 2001 M12-2017 M12 for 39 high income countries and regions. We group the countries and regions into five regional blocks as categorized by the World Bank: East Asia and the Pacific, Europe and Central Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean, Middle East and North Africa, and North America.”

Page 6: Data descriptions and sources.

“We use monthly data for high income countries and regions spanning from December 2001 to December 2017. Our sample of countries and regions includes Australia, Canada, Chile, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Euro area (EU19), Hong Kong, Hungary, Iceland, Israel, Japan, Korea Republic, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Singapore, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom (UK), the United States (US) and Uruguay. The sample is primarily determined by the availability of data. Since countries and regions do not follow a uniform definition of monetary aggregates, we use broad money as defined by the IMF as the broadest aggregate for each country or region. The data on broad money and its components is available for most of the sampled countries and regions except Hong Kong, New Zealand, Singapore, the UK and the US. Further, the Monetary and Financial Statistics Compilation Guide prepared by the IMF identifies the counterparts of broad money for these countries and regions. For example, M2 for the US, M3 for the euro area, M4 for the UK and M3 for other countries and regions. We use broad money counterparts for these countries and derive their subcomponents by classifying the constituents of M1, M2 and M3 separately. For countries and regions with the broadest aggregate of M3, we make three subcomponents: M1, the assets incorporated in M2 but not in M1 and the assets included in M3 but not in M2. In case of the US, we use currency in circulation, the assets included in M1 other than currency in circulation and the assets included in M2 but not in M1. Moreover, the broad money contains four components: currency in circulation, transferable deposits, other deposits included in broad money, and deposits other than securities included in broad money.”
