Views

Early work focussed on problems of estimating and identifying distributed lag models commonly used in consumption and investment studies. Subsequently became interested in problems of estimating and testing for effects of monetary and fiscal policy. Later research along these lines examined the role of supply-side versus demand-side effects in explaining the output-inflation trade-official

Have tried to develop and emphasise concept of money’s role as a contrivance for dealing with the lack of synchronisation both in time and magnitude between income and outlay, and to integrate this concept into portfolio theory.
