Does the East and Southeast Asian Equity Market have Integration? A Study of Cointegration Analysis

/in /by

Financial integration can improve the efficiency of capital allocation as well as help diversify risks. This study aims to find and analyze four cases. First, to find and analyze the long-term cointegration between East and Southeast Asian. Second, to find and analyze the short-term causal relationship between East and Southeast Asian equity market. Third, to find the most influential equity market from East Asian toward their Southeast Asian and the most influential equity market from Southeast Asian toward their East Asian. Last, to find the forecast structural analysis for five days horizon period of each country’s price, both East and Southeast Asia. This study uses Johansen’s cointegration method to test long-run relationships between East and Southeast Asian equity markets, Granger-causality, forecast variance decomposition method and forecast with VECM. This study uses daily indices prices collected from Refinitive covered from January 2002 to December 2019. Johansen’s test emphasize that there is a cointegration relationship between East Asian and Southeast Asian stock markets, but the integration process is incomplete. The cointegration vector also emphasize that ASEAN+3 members react differently to external shocks. This study found that the Japan Granger-cause will lead to all stock markets in Southeast Asia, while Singapore and Philippine Granger-cause will lead to all stock markets in East Asia. These results show that Japan is the market with the most connections in Southeast Asia, while Singapore and Philippine are the markets with the most connections in East Asia. Another point of this paper is to emphasize that Japan is the most influential stock market in East Asia, while Singapore is the most influential stock market in Southeast Asia.

/in /by

The goal of this study is to determine the variable(s) that is/are sources of audit expectation gap between auditors and individual investors (i.e., financial statement users) in Bangladesh. The variables used are Internal Control, Fraud Detection, Appropriateness in using accounting numbers and lastly Reliability. In this research the sample size was selected purposively, a total of 30 auditors were selected from different audit firms in terms of firm’s size, revenue, and practices again a total of 30 investors were selected purposively. A structured format of questionnaire was used where the response options were predetermined to acquire information directly from auditors and investors. The questionnaires consist of two sections, first section collected demographic data and second section enclosed 12 semantic differential belief statements. Same questionnaire was given to two independent sample groups (auditors and investors) to identify expectation gaps. To identify the variable(s) that are the cause of the audit expectation gap, the statistical approach “Independent sample t-test” was used. The disparity between auditor and investor in two variables, internal control, and reliability, is discovered in this study. The reasons behind these gaps are lack of proper educational practices and lack of understanding regarding audit norms and practices. These gaps can be reduced by giving adequate knowledge, awareness, and fair practices by the auditors to the financial users.
