Explaining The Saving-Investment Relationship With Threshold Effects, Unro Lee
Eberhardt School of Business Faculty Articles
There have been many attempts to explain the unreasonably high correlation between domestic saving and investment rates. The threshold testing procedure developed by Hansen (1999) provides a framework for testing the effects of key variables relating to capital mobility in conjunction with the saving- investment relationship. Ho (2003) first applied this method to the saving-investment puzzle controlling for thresholds in country size.

After controlling for threshold effects the relationship between savings and investment is …

Schein’s (2004) model of organizational culture is the most frequently cited perspective in the …
