Abstract
This paper presents an empirical analysis of panel unit root and panel coin tegration tests of long-run absolute purchasing power parity (PPP) fur seve n Asian developing economies (ADE). The evidence shows that the panel param etric and non-parametric tests either with a trend term or without a trend term support the hypothesis of cointegration between the bilateral exchange rates and relative prices against the selected foreign country - Japan.
