In this paper we consider cointegrated I (1) processes in the state-space framework. We introduce the state-space error correction model (SSECM) and discuss in detail how to estimate SSECMs by (pseudo) maximum likelihood methods, including reduced rank regression techniques which allow for a...

Building upon the insight that M1 velocity is the permanent component of nominal interest rates - see Benati (2020) - I propose a novel, and straightforward approach to estimating the natural rate of interest, which is conceptually related to Cochrane's (1994) proposal to estimate the permanent...
