• Mobile Phones, Financial Inclusion, and Growth (2012, background): “Sridhar and Sridhar (2004) use Roller and Waverman’s (2001) framework by estimating a system of equations that endogenizes economic growth and telecom penetration, while extending the analysis to mobile phones.”
• Fiscal policy responsiveness, persistence, and discretion (2010, unknown): “…(GDP per capita) is negatively related to the discretionary component of spending, since it is likely that poorer countries have a more volatile business cycle due to less developed financial markets, and at the same time may resort more often to discretionary fiscal policy (Rand and Tarp 2002).”
• ICT, Financial Inclusion, and Growth Evidence from African Countries (2011, background): “Evidence also has shown that business cycles tend to be shorter in developing countries (see for instance Rand and Tarp 2002).”
