Abstract

This paper examines the relationship between unemployment, real oil prices and real interest rates in the UK by means of fractional cointegration techniques. In doing so, we allow for a much greater degree of flexibility in the dynamic behaviour of the series than the one achieved by the classical I(0)/I(1)based representations. The results indicate that the three series are fractionally cointegrated, implying that there is a slow adjustment process towards a long run equilibrium relationship.
