Wages Below the Subsistence Threshold and the Emigration Risk of Ukraine's Health Workforce After Border Reopening: A Comparative Analysis of the British Experience (1919–2023) and the Polish and Wider European Migration Destinations

Drawing on 2026 financial data and comparative historical analysis, this paper argues that Ukraine's health workforce faces imminent mass emigration once wartime and language barriers lift, as persistently inadequate wages relative to living costs make migration to higher-paying European destinations economically rational for medical professionals.

Hard and Soft Label Assignment for Cost-Sensitive Semi-Supervised Reject Inference in Credit Scoring

This paper proposes RI-CSCEM, a cost-sensitive semi-supervised Expectation-Maximization framework that assigns hard or soft pseudo-labels to rejected applicants in credit scoring, effectively mitigating sample selection bias and asymmetric misclassification costs to outperform accepted-only baselines on Lending Club data.

Asymmetric and Multi-Horizon Transmission of Fiscal Dominance and Exchange Rate Pass-Through to Inflation: Evidence from Ghana

This study employs a multi-method framework combining quantile regression, nonlinear ARDL, and wavelet coherence to demonstrate that in Ghana (1980–2020), exchange rate pass-through and fiscal dominance exhibit significant asymmetry and heterogeneity, with currency depreciations and debt servicing exerting disproportionately stronger inflationary effects during high-inflation regimes and at distinct multi-year time horizons.

Socio-Economic and Institutional Drivers of Willingness to Pay for Sustainable Arsenic Mitigation in Rural India

This study of rural Bihar reveals that willingness to pay for sustainable arsenic mitigation is driven more by socio-structural factors, economic feasibility, and institutional trust than by health awareness alone, suggesting that effective interventions must address affordability and governance credibility rather than relying solely on awareness campaigns.
