In this paper, we consider the stability in regime-switching autoregressive models. Applying the concept of joint spectral radius to the regime-switching systems we provide a sufficient condition for the stationarity and the ergodicity of the regime-switching autoregressive models

This paper introduces a Banking-Macro Model and estimates the linkages through a Multi-Regime VAR (MRVAR). We introduce a dynamic model which is akin to the Brunnermeier and Sannikov (BS) model (2010). The banking sector is exposed to instability due to adverse movements of asset prices and...

We analyze the feedback mechanisms between economic downturns and financial stress for several euro area countries. Our study employs newly constructed financial condition indices that incorporate banking variables extensively. We apply a non-linear Vector Smooth Transition Autoregressive...

We introduce a dynamic banking-macro model, which abstains from conventional mean-reversion assumptions and in which - similar to Brunnermeier and Sannikov (2010) - adverse asset-price movements and their impact on risk premia and credit spreads can induce instabilities in the banking sector. To...
