En este artículo se propone un método numérico para la calibración de un modelo de equilibrio general dinámico y estocástico (DSGE). Esencialmente, éste consiste en utilizar un algoritmo híbrido de optimización, primero para encontrar un estado estacionario del modelo, y luego para...

Las redes neuronales artificiales han mostrado ser modelos robustos para dar cuenta del comportamiento de diferentes variables. En el presente trabajo se emplean para modelar la relación no lineal del crecimiento del PIB. Tres modelos son considerados: dos autoregresivos (especificación lineal...

As a natural extension to León and Vivas (2010) and León and Reveiz (2010) this paper briefly describes the Cholesky method for simulating Geometric Brownian Motion processes with long-term dependence, also referred as Fractional Geometric Brownian Motion (FBM). Results show that this method...

Defining whether a financial institution is systemically important (or not) is challenging due to (i) the inevitability of combining complex importance criteria such as institutions’ size, connectedness and substitutability; (ii) the ambiguity of what an appropriate threshold for those...
