Purchasing Power Parity: Model Specification and Related Econometric IssuesIn formulating PPP as a testable hypothesis a model needs to be specified. PPP models can be classified, according to the degree of restriction, into three types: the univariate model, the bivariate model and the multivariate...

Whether the purchasing power parity (PPP) theory of exchange rate determination holds for transition economies is an interesting question, given peculiar situations of transition economies.
