Abstract
Fractional cointegration in a trivariate model is used to test the lon g-run purchasing power parity hypothesis in four Asian newly industria lized economies. Critical values for the Geweke-Porter-Hudak tests bas ed on Monte Carlo simulations are provided. Evidence of fractional coi ntegration arises when a linear trend is included. Subperiod analysis indicates that a shift in the exchange rate regime is likely to affect the results of cointegration tests.
