We study the forecasting performance of three alternative large scale approaches using a dataset for Germany that … of the different models, respectively. We find that overall the large Bayesian VAR and the Bayesian factor augmented VAR … indicate that in many cases the gains in forecasting accuracy relative to a simple univariate autoregression are only moderate …
