Total factor productivity and the role of entrepreneurship
Erken, Hugo; Donselaar, Piet; Thurik, Adriaan R. - 2009 - Current version: May 2009
Total factor productivity of twenty OECD countries for a recent period (1971-2002) is explained using six different models based on the established literature. Traditionally, entrepreneurship is not dealt with in these models. In the present paper it is shown that – when this variable is added...

On taxation in a two-sector endogenous growth model with endogenous labor supply
Hek, Paul A. de - 2003
This paper examines the effects of taxation on long-run growthin a two-sector endogenous growth model with (i) physical capitalas an input in the education sector and (ii) leisure as anadditional argument in the utility function. The analysis of theeffects of taxation - including income...

Education, growth and income inequality
Teulings, Coen N.; Rens, Thijs van - 2003 - This version: February 2003
Estimates of the effect of education on GDP (the social return) have been hard to reconcile with micro evidence on the private return to schooling. We present a simple explanation combining two ideas: imperfect substitution and endogenous skill-biased technological progress and use cross-country...

Generalized autoregressive method of moments
Creal, Drew; Koopman, Siem Jan; Lucas, André; … - 2015
We introduce a new estimation framework which extends the Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) to settings where a subset of the parameters vary over time with unknown dynamics. To filter out the dynamic path of the time-varying parameter, we approximate the dynamics by an autoregressive process...

Forecasting value-at-risk under temporal and portfolio aggregation
Kole, Erik; Markwat, Thijs; Opschoor, Anne; Dijk, Dick van - 2015
We examine the impact of temporal and portfolio aggregation on the quality of Value-at-Risk (VaR) forecasts over a horizon of ten trading days for a well-diversified portfolio of stocks, bonds and alternative investments. The VaR forecasts are constructed based on daily, weekly or biweekly...

Parallelization experience with four canonical econometric models using ParMitISEM
Basturk, Nalan; Grassi, Stefano; Hoogerheide, Lennart; … - 2016
This paper presents the parallel computing implementation of the MitISEM algorithm, labeled Parallel MitISEM. The basic MitISEM algorithm, introduced by Hoogerheide, Opschoor and Van Dijk (2012), provides an automatic and flexible method to approximate a non-elliptical target density using...
