The Colombian economy experienced several shocks in the past ten years. The permanent fall of inflation, the adoption of inflation targeting (IT) and a financial crisis altered the transmission mechanism of monetary policy. Low inflation and IT reduced inflation persistence and contributed to...

En este documento se desarrolla, a partir de los bienes y servicios de las cuentas nacionales, una clasificación de la economía colombiana entre sectores transable y no transable de acuerdo con el grado de orientación a la importación o exportación y con la relación entre los movimientos...

Tener conocimiento del balance fiscal estructural es importante tanto para el análisis como para la formulación ex ante de la política fiscal. En este documento proponemos una metodología para la determinación del balance estructural de las finanzas del Gobierno Nacional Central, basados en...

In this paper,we propose a methodology for calculating a leading index of the economic activity based on a modification of Stock and Watson's (1989, 1991, 1992) approach. We use Kalman filter techniques for estimating the state space representation of the leading index model. The methodology is...

A dynamic linear model for data revisions and delays is proposed. This model extends Jacobs & Van Norden's [13] in two ways. First, the "true" data series is observable up to a fixed period of time M. And second, preliminary figures might be biased estimates of the true series. Otherwise, the...

Preliminary and delayed Colombian GDP reports are replaced with optimal in-sample now-casts of "true" GDP figures derived from a model for data revisions. The new GDP time series is augmented with optimal out-of-sample forecasts and back-casts of the "true" GDP figures derived from the same...

En este artículo se propone una extensión de la metodología multivariada de desagregación temporal de Di Fonzo [1990]. Esta supone que los errores de las series de alta frecuencia siguen un modelo VAR(1) en lugar de un proceso ruido blanco. Adicionalmente, se realiza una reseña de...

If theory-consistent models can ever hope to forecast well and to be useful for policy, they have to relate to data which though rich in information is uncertain, unbalanced and sometimes forecasts from external sources about the future path of other variables. One example from many is financial...

There is now an impetus to apply dynamic stochastic general equilibrium models to forecasting. But these models typically rely on purpose-built data, for example on tradable and nontradable sector outputs. How then do we know that the model will forecast well, in advance? We develop an early...
