Statistical Tests and Estimators of the Rank of a Matrix and their Applications in Econometric Modelling
Camba-Méndez, Gonzalo; Kapetanios, George - 2021
Testing and estimating the rank of a matrix of estimated parameters is key in a large variety of econometric modelling scenarios. This paper describes general methods to test for and estimate the rank of a matrix, and provides details on a variety of modelling scenarios in the econometrics...

In Dubio Pro CES : Supply Estimation with Misspecified Technical-Change
Leon-Ledesma, Miguel A. - 2010
Capital-labor substitution and total factor productivity (TFP) estimates are essential features of growth and income distribution models. In the context of a Monte Carlo exercise embodying balanced and near balanced growth, we demonstrate that the estimation of the substitution elasticity can be...

The Feldstein-Horioka fact
Giannone, Domenico; Lenza, Michele - 2008
This paper shows that general equilibrium effects can partly rationalize the high correlation between saving and investment rates observed in OECD countries. We find that once controlling for general equilibrium effects the saving-retention coefficient remains high in the 70’s but decreases...

Explaining the Money Demand of Non-Financial Corporations in the Euro Area : A Macro and a Micro View
Martinez-Carrascal, Carmen - 2010
This paper analyses euro area non-financial corporations (NFC) money demand, both from a macro and a microeconomic point of view. At a macro level, money holdings are modelled as a function of real gross added value, the price level, the long-term interest rate on bank lending to non-financial...
