In this paper we develop an open economy model explaining the joint determination of output, inflation, interest rates, unemployment and the exchange rate in a multi-country framework. Our model—the Halle Economic Projection Model (HEPM)—is closely related to studies published by Carabenciov...

In this paper we develop a small open economy model explaining the joint determination of output, inflation, interest rates, unemployment and the exchange rate in a multi-country framework. Our model - the Halle Economic Projection Model (HEPM) - is closely related to studies recently published...

In this paper, we document the forecasting performance of estimated basic dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) models and compare this to extended versions which consider alternative expectation formation assumptions and financial frictions. We also show how standard model features,...

Viele ökonomische Entscheidungen basieren implizit oder explizit auf Projektionen der wirtschaftlichen Aktivität in einem Land oder einer Region. In diesem Artikel wird ein langfristiges Projektionsmodell für Deutschland insgesamt und die deutschen Länder vorgestellt, das am IWH entwickelt...

Während Prognosefehler bei kurzfristigen Wetterprognosen in den vergangenen Jahrzehnten deutlich reduziert werden konnten, hat sich der durchschnittliche absolute Prognosefehler ökonomischer Prognosen für die jährliche Veränderung des Bruttoinlandsprodukts in den vergangenen 45 Jahren kaum...

Many economic decisions implicitly or explicitly rely on a projection of the medium- or long-term economic development of a country or region. In this paper, we provide a federal long-run projection model for Germany and the German states. The model fea-tures a top-down approach and, as major...
