EU:s politik för ett grönare jordbruk – fungerar den?
- 2020

Ingår i: Policy brief / AgriFood Economics Centre.

Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- År 2013 genomförde EU en reform av den gemensamma jordbrukspolitiken som bland annat syftade till att göra den mer miljövänlig. Ett förgröningsstöd infördes för att öka den biologiska mångfalden och därtill relaterade ekosystem tjänster. Reformen analyseras för att förstå hur den påverkat jordbrukets markanvändning och vilka effekter den har fått för miljön. Vi finner att:Förgröningsåtgärderna i reformen har inte någon betydande miljöeffekt.Reformens ekologiska fokusområden (EFA) har inte skapats där de ger störst miljönytta.Det behövs mer riktade miljöersättningar som tar hänsyn till lokala förutsättningar för att EU:s gemensamma jordbrukspolitik ska kunna leverera större miljönytta.

Effect of Type 1 Diabetes on School Performance in a Dynamic World : New Analysis Exploring Swedish Register Data
- 2016
-
Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This paper investigates if the effect of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) on school performance has changed over time using national Swedish population register data. The issue is of interest because management and treatment of the disease have improved over the last decades and, furthermore, because of changes in the educational grading system. Despite these changes, data indicate a persistent negative effect of T1DM on compulsory and upper secondary school grades and the results appears similar to earlier findings on cohorts completing school under the previous grading system. Moreover, the results are robust to alternative model specifications and econometric estimation strategies. Whereas access to new treatment technologies and improved diabetes management strategies has reduced the burden of diabetes in daily life, the results from this study indicate that other trends have not implied a reduction, over time, in the impact of T1DM on school performance. This finding indicates that continued efforts are needed to improve the situation in school for children with T1DM to prevent potential long-term socioeconomic consequences.

Does Risk-Adjusted Payment Influence Primary Care Providers' Decision on Where to Set Up Practices?
- 2016
-
Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Providing equal access to health care is an important objective in most health care systems. It is especially pertinent in systems like the Swedish primary care market, where providers are free to establish themselves in any part of the country. To improve equity in access to care, 15 out 21 county councils in Sweden have implemented risk-adjusted capitation based on the Care Need Index, which increases capitation to primary care centers with a large share of patients with unfavorable socioeconomic and demographic characteristics. Our aim is to estimate the effects of using care-need adjusted capitation on the supply of private primary care centers. We use a dataset that combines information on all primary care centers in Sweden during 2005-2013, the payment system and other conditions for establishing new primary care centers used in the county councils, and demographic, geographic, and socioeconomic variables for low level geographic areas. To estimate the effects of care-need adjusted capitation, we use difference-in-differences models, contrasting the development over time between areas with and without risk-adjusted capitation, and with high and low Care Need Index values. Risk-adjusted capitation significantly increase the number of private primary care centers in areas with relatively high Care Need Index values. The adjustment results in a changed distribution of private centers within county councils; the total number of private centers does not increase in county councils using care-need adjusted capitation. The effects are furthermore increasing over the first three years after the implementation of such capitation, and concentrated to the lower and middle range of the group of areas with high index values. Risk-adjusted capitation based on the Care Need Index increases the supply of private primary care centers in areas with unfavorable socioeconomic and demographic characteristics. More generally, this result indicates that risk-adjusted capitation can significantly affect private providers’ establishment decisions.

Macro-Finance Determinants of the Long-Run Stock-Bond Correlation: The DCC-MIDAS Specification
- 2014
-
Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- We investigate the long-run stock-bond correlation using a novel model that combines the dynamic conditional correlation model with the mixed-data sampling approach. The long-run correlation is affected by both macro-finance variables (historical and forecasts) and the lagged realized correlation itself. Macro-finance variables and the lagged realized correlation are simultaneously significant in forecasting the long-run stock-bond correlation. The behavior of the long-run stock-bond correlation is very different when estimated taking the macro-finance variables into account. Supporting the flight-to-quality phenomenon for the total stock-bond correlation, the long-run correlation tends to be small/negative when the economy is weak.

The interplay between money market development and changes in monetary policy operations in small European countries, 1980-2000
- 2006
-
Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- We study the interplay between money market development and changes in monetary policy operating procedures in 11 European countries from c. 1980 up to the launch of EMU. Aspects of money market development such as the size and structure of different market segments, and institutional and regulatory changes, are addressed. We recount and empirically examine the extent of reorientation of monetary policy instruments away from quantitative direct control instruments toward indirect market-based instruments. The process of financial deregulation is uniform across the countries. The path of money market development varies substantially, whereas changes in central bank instruments show both similarities and differences. We hypothesise a relationship between the two processes and provide tentative evidence.
