The methodology of the study is mainly based on Vector Autoregressive (VAR) model, Johansen-Juselius cointegration test, Granger causality test, Vector Error Correction Model (VECM), Impulse Response Function (IRF), Forecast Error Variance Decomposition (FEVD), GARCH-family models and Stochastic Parameter Model (SPM).
