Frequency Domain Gaussian Estimation of Temporally Aggregated Cointegrated Systems

Chambers, M.J.; McCrorie, J.R. - Tilburg University, Center for Economic Research - 2004

This paper discusses the joint estimation of the long run equilibrium coe cients and the parameters governing the short run dynamics of a fully parametric cointegrated system formulated in continuous time.The model allows the stationary disturbances to be generated by a stochastic di erential...

Identification and Estimation of Exchange Rate Models with Unobservable Fundamentals

Chambers, M.J.; McCrorie, J.R. - Tilburg University, Center for Economic Research - 2004

This paper is concerned with issues of model specification, identification, and estimation in exchange rate models with unobservable fundamentals.We show that the model estimated by Gardeazabal, Reg´ulez and V´azquez (International Economic Review, 1997) is not identified and demonstrate how...

On the Axiomatic Characterization of "Who is a J?"

Dimitrov, D.A.; Sung, S.C. - Tilburg University, Center for Economic Research - 2003

Recent work by Kasher and Rubinstein (1997) considers the problem of group identification from a social choice perspective.These authors provide an axiomatic characterization of a liberal aggregator whereby the group consist of those and only those individuals each of which views oneself a...

Aggregation without the Aggravation? Nonparametric Analysis of the Representative Consumer

Cherchye, L.J.H.; Crawford, I.; de Rock, B.; Vermeulen, … - Tilburg University, Center for Economic Research - 2011

Abstract: In the tradition of Afriat (1967), Diewert (1973) and Varian (1982), we provide a revealed preference characterisation of the representative consumer. Our results are simple and complement those of Gorman (1953, 1961), Samuelson (1956) and others. They can also be applied to data very...
