Nonlinear Drivers of Macroeconomic Tail Risk: A Threshold Stochastic Volatility-in-Mean VAR with Regime-Dependent Leverage
宏观经济尾部风险的非线性驱动:区制依赖杠杆的门限随机波动均值VAR
The tails of macroeconomic outcomes can respond differently from the centre of their distribution: shocks with modest effects on median growth or inflation can shift downside growth or upside inflation risk. We develop a threshold stochastic-volatility-in-mean VAR with regime-dependent leverage to study their structural drivers. The model allows endogenous interactions between outcomes and volatility, contemporaneous level-volatility dependence, and regime-specific…
