Combining Time Variation and Mixed Frequencies: an Analysis of Government Spending Multipliers in Italy
结合时变参数与混合频率:意大利政府支出乘数分析
Summary In this paper, we propose a time‐varying parameter vector autoregression (VAR) model with stochastic volatility which allows for estimation on data sampled at different frequencies. Our contribution is twofold. First, we extend the methodology developed by Cogley and Sargent (Drifts and volatilities: monetary policies and outcomes in the post WWII U.S. Review of Economic Studies 2005; 8 : 262–302) and Primiceri (Time varying structural vector autoregressions and…
