Forecasting in cointegrated systems
协整系统中的预测
Abstract We consider the implications for forecast accuracy of imposing unit roots and cointegrating restrictions in linear systems of I (1) variables in levels, differences, and cointegrated combinations. Asymptotic formulae are obtained for multi‐step forecast error variances for each representation. Alternative measures of forecast accuracy are discussed. Finite sample behaviour in a bivariate model is studied by Monte Carlo using control variables. We also analyse the…
