国际溢出的结构矩阵自回归框架AI 解读

Understanding how macroeconomic shocks propagate across countries requires structural models that can jointly identify country-specific shocks and their international transmission. Yet extending structural vector autoregressions (SVARs) to large multi-country systems is challenging due to rapidly increasing dimensionality, computational costs, and the proliferation of identifying restrictions. This paper develops a Bayesian Structural Matrix Autoregression (BSMAR) framework…

利用叙事限制强化大型结构 VAR 的识别AI 解读

We propose a high-dimensional structural vector autoregression framework with a factor structure in the error terms that accommodates a large number of linear inequality restrictions on both impact impulse responses and structural shocks. Our framework extends recent advances in large sign-restricted VARs by allowing narrative restrictions to be imposed directly through constraints on structural shocks via prior distributions, thereby sharpening identification and enhancing…

货币冲击对宏观经济星号变量的影响：SMUC-IV 框架AI 解读

This paper proposes a structural multivariate unobserved components model with external instrument (SMUC-IV) to investigate the effects of monetary policy shocks on key U.S. macroeconomic "stars"-namely, the level of potential output, the growth rate of potential output, trend inflation, and the neutral interest rate. A key feature of our approach is the use of an external instrument to identify monetary policy shocks within the multivariate unobserved components modeling…

结合统计识别与潜在内生代理变量估计财政乘数AI 解读

Different proxy variables used in fiscal policy SVARs lead to contradicting conclusions regarding the size of fiscal multipliers. Our analysis suggests that the conflicting results may stem from violations of the proxy exogeneity assumptions. We propose a novel approach to include proxy variables into a Bayesian non-Gaussian SVAR, tailored to accommodate potentially endogenous proxies. Using our model, we find that increasing government spending is more effective in…

大型非高斯结构 VAR 及其货币政策应用AI 解读

We propose a large structural VAR which is identified by higher moments without the need to impose economically motivated restrictions. The model scales well to higher dimensions, allowing the inclusion of a larger number of variables. We develop an efficient Gibbs sampler to estimate the model. We also present an estimator of the deviance information criterion to facilitate model comparison. Finally, we discuss how economically motivated restrictions can be added to the…

实时预测宏观经济尾部风险：文本数据是否提供增量价值AI 解读

We examine the incremental value of news-based data relative to the FRED-MD economic indicators for quantile predictions of employment, output, inflation and consumer sentiment in a high-dimensional setting. Our results suggest that news data contain valuable information that is not captured by a large set of economic indicators. We provide empirical evidence that this information can be exploited to improve tail risk predictions. The added value is largest when media…

大数据分位数回归视角下宏观经济尾部风险的非线性AI 解读

Modeling and predicting extreme movements in GDP is notoriously difficult and the selection of appropriate covariates and/or possible forms of nonlinearities are key in obtaining precise forecasts. In this paper, our focus is on using large datasets in quantile regression models to forecast the conditional distribution of US GDP growth. To capture possible non-linearities, we include several nonlinear specifications. The resulting models will be huge dimensional and we thus…
