A Matter of Survival: Development Through Innovation
Abdoulganiour Almame Tinta
This paper examines innovation by emphasizing the role of Global value chains (GVCs) and financial development. Using data from 25,690 firms from the World Bank’s Enterprise Surveys (WBES) from 2006 to 2023, extended probit and two-step probit selection models are constructed. The findings show that engaging in GVCs is essential to innovation,(...)

COPULA OF BERNSTEIN AND DEGREE OF DISCORDANCE
Vini Yves Bernadin LOYARA, Fabrice OUOBA et Rémi Guillaume BAGRE
The analytical expression for the degree of multivariate discordance in probability has a high level of mathematical elegance. This is why we were interested in the degree of discrepancy. In addition, while working on this expression, an application to the Bernstein copula appeared more accessible. We therefore modeled the expression for the B(...)
