Research in Progress

"REAL INTEREST PARITY IN ASEAN-5 MIDDLE-INCOME NATIONS" (Writing Results)
This study examines real interest parity in ASEAN-5 middle-income countries (Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand, Vietnam) using quarterly data from 2009 to 2024 and the ARDL bounds testing approach, incorporating structural breaks. We find robust evidence of cointegration between ASEAN-5 real interest rates and those of Japan and the US, indicating significant financial integration. Structural break analysis, using the Bai-Perron methodology, significantly improves model fit, highlighting the impact of major economic events. Adjustment speeds towards longrun equilibrium vary, reflecting differing market responsiveness to benchmark economies. Our findings suggest limited monetary autonomy for ASEAN-5 countries, emphasizing the need for robust financial regulation amidst global integration
