Abstract
In this study, we apply threshold cointegration test advanced by Enders and Siklos (2001) to investigate the properties of asymmetric adjustment in long‐run purchasing power parity (PPP) in nine major oil‐exporting countries. Although there is evidence of long‐run PPP for these nine oil‐exporting countries, the adjustment mechanism is asymmetric. These results have important policy implications for these nine oil‐exporting countries under study. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
