Validating Monetary DSGE models through VARs
* This paper grew out of the Panel Discussion of the workshop " SDGE Models and their use in monetary policy " , held at the European Central Bank, June 5-6, 2001. I would like to thank the participants of the TSM conference in Touluse for comments and suggestions.
متن کاملTesting for Sufficient Information in Structural VARs*
We derive necessary and sufficient conditions under which a set of variables is informationally sufficient, i.e. it contains enough information to estimate the structural shocks with a VAR model. Based on such conditions, we suggest a procedure to test for informational sufficiency. Moreover, we show how to amend the VAR if informational sufficiency is rejected. We apply our procedure to a VAR ...
متن کاملBayesian Estimation of DSGE Models: Lessons from Second-order Approximations
This paper investigates a general procedure to estimate second-order approximations to a DSGE model and compares the performance with the widely used estimation technique for a log-linearized economy on a version of new Keynesian monetary model. It is done in the context of posterior distributions, welfare cost, and impulse response analysis. Our findings include the followings. First, we find ...
متن کاملDSGE Estimation of Models with Learning∗
I investigate how a model that assumes learning might interact with a rational expectations data generating process. Milani (2007b) asserts that if agents are learning and there is no conditional heteroscedasticity then an econometrician may be fooled into estimating ARCH/GARCH models. In addition, I evaluate the contribution of a new endogenous gain, which I have proposed in previous paper, ma...
متن کاملBayesian Mixed Frequency Estimation of DSGE models
In this paper, we present an alternative strategy for estimation of DSGE models when data is available at di¤erent time intervals. Our method is based on a data augmentation technique within Bayesian estimation of structural models and allows us to jointly use data at di¤erent frequencies. The bene ts achieved via this methodology will be twofold, resolution of time aggregation bias and identi ...
