This paper develops a flexible and computationally efficient model to estimate the credit loss distribution of the loans in a banking system. We consider a sectorial structure, where default frequencies and the total number of loans are allowed to depend on macroeconomic conditions as well as on...

We investigate identifiability issues in DSGE models and their consequences for parameter estimation and model evaluation when the objective function measures the distance between estimated and model impulse responses. Observational equivalence, partial and weak identification problems are...

Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium models are often tested against empirical VARs or estimated by minimizing the distance between the model's and the VAR impulse response functions. These methodologies require that the data-generating process consistent with the DSGE theoretical model has a...

Incluye bibliografía ; In this paper we present the theoretical foundations and the simulation results obtained with a new dynamic general equilibrium model developed at the Banco de España for the Spanish economy and the rest of Euro area. The model is designed to help in simulating the...

The purpose of this paper is, in the absence of a textbook which incorporates in a comprehensive form the increased diversity of applications and methodology of integrated processes, take stock of the most important results in this field, interpreting such results and, also, comparing them to...

Artículo de revista ; We develop a New Keynesian DSGE model with heterogeneous agents to investigate how the shadow financial system affects macroeconomic activity and financial stability. In the adopted framework, regulated commercial banks finance small firms through traditional business...

This paper shows that the standard Calvo model clearly fails to account for the distribution of price durations found in micro data. We propose a novel price setting model that fully captures heterogeneity in individual pricing behavior. Specifi cally, we assume that there is a continuum of...

Se considera que las vacunas son la mejor solución para controlar la actual pandemia por SARS-CoV-2. Sin embargo, la proliferación de cepas resistentes a las vacunas puede ser demasiado rápida para que su aplicación alivie la propagación de la pandemia, así como sus consecuencias...
