The aim of this article is to analyse the price transmission between German and Hungarian wheat producer prices using weekly prices. Markov-Switching Vector Error Correction Model (MS-VECM) with three regimes seems to appropriately capture the dynamics in the price relationship.

In vielen Studien werden die Erkenntnisse der Cointegrationstheorie bei der Bestimmung symmetrischer Preisanpassungen auf räumlich oder vertikal getrennten Märkten umgesetzt. Bei der Identifikation asymmetrischer Preisanpassungsprozesse hingegen wird immer noch der Ansatz von Wolffram aus dem...

[eng] The robustness of asymmetric price transmission tests in the presence of structural breaks - Asymmetric price transmission, especially between vertically separated markets, has been a subject of considerable attention in agricultural economics. Asymmetric price transmission is not only...

The impact of cross-sectional aggregation over individual retail stores on the estimation and testing of vertical price transmission between the wholesale and retail levels is investigated using a unique data set of individual retail prices in Germany. Systematic differences between the results...

Analysis of price transmission in transition countries is often complicated by unstable policy environments. We use a Markov-switching vector error-correction model (MSVECM) to model multiple regime shifts in the relationship between wheat and wheat flour prices in Ukraine from June 2000 to...
