This article places the data revision model of Jacobs and van Norden (2011) within a class of trend-cycle decompositions relating directly to the Beveridge--Nelson decomposition. In both these approaches, identifying restrictions on the covariance matrix under simple and realistic conditions may...

We consider a static portfolio system that satisfies adding-up constraints and Tobin's gross substitution theorem. We show the relationship of the two conditions to the weak dominant diagonal property of the matrix of interest rate elasticities. This enables us to investigate effects of...
