Unconventional U.S. monetary policy: New tools, same channels?
Feldkircher, Martin; Huber, Florian - In: Journal of Risk and Financial Management 11 (2018) 4, pp. 1-31
In this paper, we compare the transmission of a conventional monetary policy shock with that of an unexpected decrease in the term spread, which mirrors quantitative easing. Employing a time-varying vector autoregression with stochastic volatility, our results are two-fold: First, the spread...

Level, Slope, Curvature: Characterising the Yield Curve in a Cointegrated VAR Model
Giese, Julia V. - In: Economics: The Open-Access, Open-Assessment E-Journal 2 (2008) 2008-28, pp. 1-20
Empirical evidence on the expectations hypothesis of the term structure is in-conclusive and its validity widely debated. Using a cointegrated VAR model of US treasury yields, this paper extends a common approach to test the theory. If, as we find, spreads between two yields are non-stationary,...

The External Finance Premium and the Financial Accelerator: The Case of Turkey
Cambazoğlu, Birgül; Karaalp, Hacer Simay - In: International Journal of Economic Sciences and Applied … 6 (2013) 1, pp. 103-121
The monetary transmission mechanisms have influence on saving and investment decisions of firms and households by affecting their balance sheets. This study examines the effects of monetary policy through the balance sheet channel (also known as 'financial accelerator'), which affects net worth,...

Testing the New Keynesian Model on U.S. and Euro Area Data
Juselius, Mikael - In: Economics: The Open-Access, Open-Assessment E-Journal 2 (2008) 2008-24, pp. 1-26
I apply the Johansen and Swensen (1999, 2004) method of testing exact rational expectations within the cointegrated VAR (Vector Auto-Regressive) model, to testing the New Keynesian (NK) model. This method permits the testing of rational expectation systems, while allowing for non-stationary...

Taking a DSGE Model to the Data Meaningfully
Franchi, Massimo; Jusélius, Katarina - In: Economics: The Open-Access, Open-Assessment E-Journal 1 (2007) 2007-4, pp. 1-38
All economists say that they want to take their models to the data. But with incomplete and highly imperfect data, doing so is difficult and requires carefully matching the assumptions of the model with the statistical properties of the data. The cointegrated VAR (CVAR) offers a way of doing so....

Bridging Economic Theory Models and the Cointegrated Vector Autoregressive Model
Møller, Niels Framroze - In: Economics: The Open-Access, Open-Assessment E-Journal 2 (2008) 2008-36, pp. 1-29
Examples of simple economic theory models are analyzed as restrictions on the Cointegrated VAR (CVAR). This establishes a correspondence between basic economic concepts and the econometric concepts of the CVAR: The economic relations correspond to cointegrating vectors and exogeneity in the...

Asymmetry and Spillover Effects in the North American Equity Markets
Pollard, Stephen K.; Sapra, Sunil K.; Canarella, Giorgio - In: Economics: The Open-Access, Open-Assessment E-Journal 1 (2007) 2007-12, pp. 1-52
In this paper we examine the issue of asymmetry in the return and volatility spillover effects from the US equity market into the Canadian and Mexican equity markets. We model the conditional volatility of the returns in each of the three markets using the asymmetric power model of Ding, Granger...

Restatement of the I-O coefficient stability problem
Dobrescu, Emilian - In: Journal of Economic Structures 2 (2013), pp. 1-67
The capacity of input-output tables to reflect the structural peculiarities of an economy and to forecast, on this basis, its evolution, depends essentially on the characteristics of the matrix A matrix of I-O (or technical) coefficients. However, the temporal behaviour of these coefficients is...
