We use available methods for testing macro models to evaluate a model of China over the period from Deng Xiaoping's reforms up until the crisis period. Bayesian ranking methods are heavily influenced by controversial priors on the degree of price/wage rigidity. When the overall models are tested...

Out-of-sample forecasting tests of DSGE models against time-series benchmarks such as an unrestricted VAR are … on a widely-used DSGE model to investigate the power of these tests. We find that in specification testing they have weak … power relative to an in-sample indirect inference test; this implies that a DSGE model may be badly mis-specified and still …

Using Monte Carlo experiments, we examine the performance of Indirect Inference tests of DSGE models, usually versions … (using the Likelihood Ratio), and on the Del Negro-Schorfheide DSGE-VAR weight. We find that the power of all three tests is …

The global financial crisis since 2008 revived the debate on whether or not and to what extent financial development contributes to economic growth. This paper reviews different theoretical schools of thought and empirical findings on this nexus, building on which we aim to develop a unified,...

We test the standard New Keynesian (NK) Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) model under the condition with …. Overall, our findings provide important implications on the modelling of expectation formation in the DSGE framework. …

In this paper we investigate the role of news shocks in aggregate fluctuations by comparing the empirical performance of models with and without the feature of the news shocks. We found a trivial difference between the two models. That is, the model with news shocks explains the variation as...
