Vector equilibrium correction models with non‐linear discontinuous adjustments
Cointegration is studied for a non‐linear autoregressive process characterized by discontinuous and regime‐dependent equilibrium or error correction. Here the disequilibrium, as measured by the norm of linear ‘stable’ or cointegrating relations, determines the regime and hence the equilibrium correction of the process. Importantly, switching between regimes is thereby allowed to be caused endogenously. The transition function may be either observable as in, e.g. threshold…
