This paper introduces a framework for selecting policies that maximize expected welfare under estimation uncertainty. The proposed method explicitly balances the size of the estimated welfare against the uncertainty inherent in its estimation, ensuring that chosen policies meet a reporting...

All parameters in structural vector autoregressive (SVAR) models are locally identified when the structural shocks are independent and follow non-Gaussian distributions. Unfortunately, standard inference methods that exploit such features of the data for identification fail to yield correct...
