Real Interest Rate Parity in OECD Countries: New Evidence from Time Series and Panel Cointegration Techniques

Abstract
We examine the existence of Real Interest Rate Parity (RIRP) for a number of Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries. Using time series techniques, we manage to identify cointegrating relationships. For a subset of countries our findings suggest the existence of a structural break. The panel results are also in favour of the RIRP.
