含单位根与协整的短面板向量自回归：估计与推断AI 解读

This paper considers estimation and inference in panel vector autoregressions where (i) the individual effects are either random or fixed, (ii) the time-series properties of the model variables are unknown a priori and may feature unit roots and cointegrating relations, and (iii) the time dimension of the panel is short and its cross-sectional dimension is large. Generalized method of moments (GMM) and quasi maximum likelihood (QML) estimators are obtained and compared in…

利用全球误差修正宏观计量模型刻画地区间相互依赖AI 解读

Financial institutions are ultimately exposed to macroeconomic fluctuations in the global economy. This article proposes and builds a compact global model capable of generating forecasts for a core set of macroeconomic factors (or variables) across a number of countries. The model explicitly allows for the interdependencies that exist between national and international factors. Individual region-specific vector error-correcting models are estimated in which the domestic…

宏观经济建模中的预测不确定性AI 解读

Weargue that probability forecasts convey information on the uncertainties that surround macroeconomic forecasts in a straightforward manner that is preferable to other alternatives, including the use of confidence intervals. Probability forecasts obtained using a small benchmark macroeconometric model and a number of other alternatives are presented and evaluated using recursive forecasts generated over the period 1999q1–2001q1. Out-of-sample probability forecasts of…

水平关系分析的界限检验方法AI 解读

Abstract This paper develops a new approach to the problem of testing the existence of a level relationship between a dependent variable and a set of regressors, when it is not known with certainty whether the underlying regressors are trend‐ or first‐difference stationary. The proposed tests are based on standard F ‐ and t ‐statistics used to test the significance of the lagged levels of the variables in a univariate equilibrium correction mechanism. The asymptotic…

动态异质面板的混合均值组估计AI 解读

It is now quite common to have panels in which both T, the number of time series observations, and N, the number of groups, are quite large and of the same order of magnitude. The usual practice is either to estimate N separate regressions and calculate the coefficient means, which we call the mean group (MG) estimator, or to pool the data and assume that the slope coefficients and error variances are identical. In this article we propose an intermediate procedure, the…

多国经验随机 Solow 模型中的增长与收敛AI 解读

The paper considers international per capita output and its growth using a panel of data for 102 countries between 1960 and 1989. It sets out an explicitly stochastic Solow growth model and shows that this has quite different properties from the standard approach where the output equation is obtained by adding an error term to the linearized solution of a deterministic Solow model. It examines the econometric properties of estimates of beta convergence as traditionally…

不可逆石油投资的持续期模型：理论与实证证据AI 解读

The aim of this paper is to analyse the implications of the theory of irreversible investment under uncertainty for investment in oil fields on the United Kingdom Continental Shelf (UKCS). We consider the problem of an operator who owns a licence to develop and extract oil from a field of known capacity. An intertemporal optimization model in discrete time is developed to derive decision rules for the timing of the irreversible development investment and for the optimal rate…

工具变量估计下细分模型与加总模型的选择AI 解读

A choice criterion is proposed for discriminating between disaggregate and aggregate models estimated by the instrumental variables method. The criterion, based on prediction errors, represents a generalization of criteria developed in the context of classical regressions models. The paper also derives general tests for aggregation bias in the instrumental variables context. The criterion and tests are applied in an analysis of U.K. employment demand. It is shown that a…

预测表现的简单非参数检验AI 解读

This paper derives a distribution free procedure for testing the accuracy of forecasts when the focus of the analysis is on the correct prediction of the direction of change in the variable under consideration. The test applies to a general m x n contingency table and it is shown that the standard null hypothesis of independence in a contingency table implies the null hypothesis of the proposed test of predictive failure but not vice versa. As a test of predictive…

全局与部分非嵌套假设及渐近局部功效AI 解读

This paper addresses two related issues in the literature of non-nested hypotheses testing. Firstly, by means of a measure of “closeness” of probability density functions, it shows how any two hypotheses can be placed into the nested and the non-nested categories with the latter category being subdivided further into “globally” and “partially” non-nested hypotheses. Secondly, by emphasizing the distinction between a “local null” and a “local alternative,” the paper shows…
