Financial inclusion is a crucial element of financial development that transmits cheap financial services to provide advantages to entire segments of society and stimulates economic growth. Our investigation evaluates the asymmetric financial inclusion-economic growth nexus in the top 10 financially inclusive Middle East nations (Israel, Oman, Iran, Qatar, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Egypt, United Arab Emirates, and Kuwait). Earlier studies adopted panel data tools, which yielded typical outcomes on the association between financial inclusion and economic growth despite few economies did not indicate such a link individually.

Growing concerns regarding climate change and the necessity to shift towards a low-carbon economy have resulted in a significant rise in the worth of green finance for developing energy technology. This growing emphasis on green finance underscores the urgency for a nuanced exploration of the asymmetric nexus between green investment and energy innovation in Europe. The present article investigates the asymmetric relationship between green investment and energy innovation in the top ten European nations with the highest green investment (France, Netherlands, Germany, Italy, Spain, Denmark, Austria, Finland, the UK, and Sweden).

The COVID-19 pandemic has brought significant challenges to healthcare systems worldwide, prompting governments to allocate substantial resources toward public health spendings (PHS). However, the uncertainties surrounding the pandemic have raised questions about the effectiveness and sustainability of such expenditures. This research analyzes the nonlinear link between pandemic uncertainty (PNU) and PHS in countries with highest PNU (USA, India, France, Germany, UK, Saudi Arabia, South Korea, Indonesia, Japan, and China).

This research intends to evaluate the asymmetric relationship between pandemic uncertainty and public health expenditures in selected European Union nations (Germany, France, Sweden, Belgium, Austria, Netherlands, Denmark, Spain, Finland, and Portugal). Earlier studies used panel data methodologies to get consistent results about the pandemic-health expenditures nexus, irrespective of the reality that numerous economies did not identify such a link independently. By contrast, the present research utilizes a unique technique, quantile-on-quantile, that explores time-series dependency in every nation by offering worldwide yet country-related insight into the linkage between the variables.

The current study explores the relationship between water resources and tourism in South Asia for the period of 1995-2017. The study employs the CIPS unit root test for stationarity of the variables and the CD test for cross-sectional dependence among cross-sectional units. As for the long-run parameters, a novel technique, known as dynamic common correlated effect (DCCE) model, is used which was recently developed by Chudik and Pesaran (J Econ 188:393-420, 2015b).
