Abstract: This study aims at investigating the relationship between gross domestic product and worker's remittance in the context of Bangladesh. A time series analysis, covering the data of 1987-2018, confirms that the data are stationary at their first difference form by ADF and PP test and cointegrated by Johansen procedure. The normalized Cointegration coefficients are showing stable and positive relation between gross domestic product and remittance and negative relationship between inflation and GDP. Results from VECM suggest that equilibrium will be restored by 43% in each period. Granger causality test substantiate that there exists bidirectional causality. Variance decomposition also supports the results of VECM. This study suggests that policy makers should take appropriate steps to increase worker's remittances to achieve the long run economic growth..

Abstract: International economic integration puts a country's fortunes partly into the hands of others. When integration takes the form of financial interdependence, the potential domestic impact of external events is magnified manifold. The global economic crisis of 2006–2008 and the European sovereign debt crisis that followed have unleashed market forces that even policymakers in the mature economies were ill prepared to counteract. The existing informational and institutional structure for global policymaking remains woefully inadequate to the challenge of financial globalization.

Abstract: Choice of housing quality by the rural poor does not appear to be a well-researched topic in development economics in spite of its possible role in influencing health outcomes and social acceptance in society (e.g., the capability to function in society). Because housing services are composite durable goods, the dimensions along which one may measure quality is diverse; common demarcations include the material utilised to build the walls, roof, floor, quality of sanitation etc. In this study, we use primary Bangladesh survey data of rural households collected by the Institute of Microfinance (InM)1, Dhaka, recently re-named, Institute for Inclusive Finance & Development. Over and above exploring the qualitative aspects of the data, we estimate multi-nominal logit model to capture the determinants..............
