Money talks

Hoerova, Marie; Monnet, Cyril; Temzelides, Ted - 2009

We study credible information transmission by a benevolent Central Bank. We consider two possibilities: direct … revelation through an announcement, versus indirect information transmission through monetary policy. These two ways of … transmitting information have very different consequences. Since the objectives of the Central Bank and those of individual …

Infinite-dimensional VARs and factor models

Chudik, Alexander; Pesaran, Hashem - 2009

This paper introduces a novel approach for dealing with the 'curse of dimensionality' in the case of large linear dynamic systems. Restrictions on the coefficients of an unrestricted VAR are proposed that are binding only in a limit as the number of endogenous variables tends to infinity. It is...

Why do financial systems differ? History matters

Monnet, Cyril; Quintin, Erwan - 2005

We describe a dynamic model of financial intermediation in which fundamental characteristics of the economy imply a unique equilibrium path of bank and financial market lending. Yet we also show that economies whose fundamental characteristics have converged may continue to have very different...

Near-rational exuberance

Bullard, James; Evans, George W.; Honkapohja, Seppo - 2005

We study how the use of judgement or “add-factors” in macroeconomic forecasting may disturb the set of equilibrium outcomes when agents learn using recursive methods. We isolate conditions under which new phenomena, which we call exuberance equilibria, can exist in standard macroeconomic...

Welfare implications of Calvo vs. Rotemberg pricing assumptions

Lombardo, Giovanni; Vestin, David - 2007

This paper compares the welfare implications of two widely used pricing assumptions in the New-Keynesian literature: Calvo-pricing vs. Rotemberg-pricing. We show that despite the strong similarities between the two assumptions to a first order of approximation, in general they might entail...

International transmission and monetary policy cooperation

Coenen, Günter; Lombardo, Giovanni; Smets, Frank; … - 2008

We use a version of the New Area-Wide Model (NAWM) developed at the ECB in order to quantify the gains from monetary policy cooperation. The model is calibrated in order to match a set of empirical moments. We then derive the cooperative and (open-loop) Nash monetary policies, assuming that the...

Weak and strong cross section dependence and estimation of large panels

Chudik, Alexander; Pesaran, Hashem; Tosetti, Elisa - 2009

This paper introduces the concepts of time-specific weak and strong cross section dependence. A double- indexed process is said to be cross sectionally weakly dependent at a given point in time, t, if its weighted average along the cross section dimension (N) converges to its expectation in...

Econometric analysis of high dimensional VARs featuring a dominant unit

Pesaran, Hashem; Chudik, Alexander - 2010

This paper extends the analysis of infinite dimensional vector autoregressive models (IVAR) proposed in Chudik and Pesaran (2010) to the case where one of the variables or the cross section units in the IVAR model is dominant or pervasive. This extension is not straightforward and involves...
