We show that policy uncertainty about how the rising public debt will be stabilized accounts for the lack of deflation in the US economy at the zero lower bound. We first estimate a Markov-switching VAR to highlight that a zero-lower-bound regime captures most of the comovements during the Great...

This study aimed to the application of forecasts combination of model to predict tax revenues in Brazil. Here we combine the predictions obtained from three models: dynamic factor model (DFM), seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average (Sarima) and model of Holt-Winters smoothing. We...

Counter to the credit channel of monetary transmission, monetary policy tightening induces a rise in lending by two different types of non-bank financial institutions (NBFI): shadow banks and investment funds. A monetary DSGE model is able to replicate the empirical facts when augmented with...
