Macroeconomic factors and micro-level bank risk
Buch, Claudia M.; Eickmeier, Sandra; Prieto, Esteban - 2010
The interplay between banks and the macroeconomy is of key importance for financial and economic stability. We analyze this link using a factor-augmented vector autoregressive model (FAVAR) which extends a standard VAR for the U.S. macroeconomy. The model includes GDP growth, inflation, the...

How do oil prices affect the GDP and its components? : new evidence from a time-varying threshold model
Ben Salem, Leila; Nouira, Ridha; Saafi, Sami; Rault, … - 2024
Revealing the precise thresholds at which fluctuations in oil prices start to affect gross domestic product and its various components (consumption, investment, expenditure and exports) holds significant implications for policymakers in both oil-importing and oil-exporting countries. Existing...

The econometrics of oil market VAR Models
Kilian, Lutz; Zhou, Xiaoqing - 2020
Oil market VAR models have become the standard tool for understanding the evolution of the real price of oil and its impact in the macro economy. As this literature has expanded at a rapid pace, it has become increasingly difficult for mainstream economists to understand the differences between...

Structural interpretation of vector autoregressions with incomplete information : revisiting the role of oil supply and demand shocks : comment
Kilian, Lutz; Zhou, Xiaoqing - 2018
Recently, Baumeister and Hamilton (henceforth: BH) have argued that existing studies of the global oil market fail to account for uncertainty about their identifying assumptions. They recommend an alternative econometric approach intended to address this concern by formulating priors on the...

Structural interpretation of vector autoregressions with incomplete identification : revisiting the role of oil supply and demand shocks
Baumeister, Christiane; Hamilton, James D. - 2017 - Revised December 21, 2017
Traditional approaches to structural vector autoregressions can be viewed as special cases of Bayesian inference arising from very strong prior beliefs. These methods can be generalized with a less restrictive formulation that incorporates uncertainty about the identifying assumptions...

Credit shocks and macroeconomic fluctuations in emerging markets
Houssa, Romain; Mohimont, Jolan; Otrok, Christopher M. - 2013
In this paper, we examine the role of global and domestic credit supply shocks in macroeconomic fluctuations for Emerging Markets. For this purpose, we impose a set of zero and sign restrictions within a medium-scale Bayesian Vector Auto-Regressive model. Quarterly data from South Africa and G-7...
