jimf-robustness

Use when a Journal of International Money and Finance (JIMF) result must be shown stable across samples, regimes, measures, and inference choices. Designs the robustness layer mapped to international-finance threats; it does not establish the design (jimf-identification / jimf-empirical-design).

# Robustness Strategy (jimf-robustness)

## When to trigger

- The main coefficient is in hand but a referee will ask whether it survives sample, period, and measurement choices
- The result might be driven by one crisis episode, one dominant country (the US), or one regime
- Inference is OLS-clustered-one-way and the panel has serial and cross-sectional correlation
- You are assembling a robustness section and want it to answer *threats*, not pad column count

## The JIMF robustness logic: every check answers a named threat

A JIMF robustness section is persuasive when each exhibit is tied to an *international-finance threat to inference*, not when it is a wall of specifications. Build the section as a threat → check map. The threats that JIMF referees raise most are: a single global episode driving everything; US-centrism; regime dependence; a fragile measurement choice; and inference that ignores cross-country dependence.
