We introduce a fast upper-envelope scan (FUES) method to compute solutions for dynamic programming problems with continuous and discrete choices. The FUES method builds on the standard endogenous grid method (EGM). Standard EGM applied to problems with continuous and discrete choices does not by...

This chapter reviews the microeconometrics literature on partial identification , focusing on the developments of the last thirty years. The topics presented illustrate that the available data combined with credible maintained assumptions may yield much information about a parameter of interest,...

This chapter discusses computational methods for approximating portfolio and asset pricing problems. Formulation of these problems is usually specified along with components, preferences, payoffs, etc., that are analytic functions. This implies that the solutions to these problems acquire this...

Robustness checks, such as adding controls or sample splits, are a standard feature of reduced-form empirical research. Because of computational costs of reestimating alternative models, they are much less common in structural re- search using simulation-based methods. We propose a simple...
