Motivated by the increasing use of external instruments to identify structural vector autoregressions SVARs), we develop algorithms for exact finite sample inference in this class of time series models, commonly known as proxy SVARs. Our algorithms make independent draws from the...

We use the Bayesian method introduced by Gallant and McCulloch (2009) to estimate consumption-based asset pricing models featuring smooth ambiguity preferences. We rely on semi-nonparametric estimation of a flexible auxiliary model in our structural estimation. Based on the market and aggregate...
