Bound Test

The objective of this work is to address the validity of a quadratic environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) hypothesis in the West African Economic and Monetary Union (WAEMU) countries over the period 1970-2010. The bound test procedure is used to analyze the relationship between CO2 emissions and GDP. The results indicate that there is no long term relationship between these variables for the panel of 8 countries of the WAEMU. Similarly, the co-integration exists only in Benin, Mali and Togo. For the purposes of robustness check, additional variables (energy consumption and trade openness) and the Sasabuchi–Lind–Mehlum U test are used. The results confirm the validity of a quadratic carbon Kuznets curve only in Mali. Moreover, the validity of the "pollution havens" hypothesis suggests that the government of Mali should strengthen its environmental regulation policy to limit the influx of polluting industries in the country.

The Relationship

<p><em>This paper provides an empirical assessment of the relationship between banking, liquidity, investment, terms of trade, bank solvency ratio, financial development and economic growth in the WAEMU zone. The analysis focuses on 7 countries of the West African Economic and Monetary Union (WAEMU) and covers the period 1994-2015. Using the panel data approach, we show that economic growth is positively </em><em>related </em><em>with banking on liquidity. In addition, the results highlight the impact of bank liquidity on economic growth but mitigate when it is associated with the investment.</em></p>

Legal Transplant

The study deals with the antitrust sanctions of the West African Economic and Monetary Union (Union Economique et Monétaire Ouest Africaine - UEMOA) and its member states, which was taken from EU law as a legal transplant. Differences to EU law are elaborated and, in particular, areas are identified in which UEMOA-specific problems require a different interpretation of sanctions law in the interest of effective protection of competition. In addition, the difficulties of implementation are highlighted and far-reaching and comprehensive measures are proposed, oriented towards European antitrust sanctions law, in order to achieve a more efficient prosecution of antitrust violations.
