Method of Simulated Moments (MSM) estimators introduced by McFadden (1989)and Pakes and Pollard (1989) are of great use to applied economists. They are relatively easy to use even for estimating very complicated economic models. One simply needs to generate simulated data according to the model...

Policy researchers often have to estimate the future effect of imposing a policy in a particular location. There is often historical information on the effects of similar policies in other jurisdictions, but no information on the effects of the policy in the jurisdiction in question, and the...

Projected demographic changes in industrialized and developing countries vary in extent and timing but will reduce the share of the population in working age everywhere. Conventional wisdom suggests that this will increase capital intensity with falling rates of return to capital and increasing...

We develop numerically stable stochastic simulation approaches for solving dynamic economic models. We rely on standard … simulation procedures to simultaneously compute an ergodic distribution of state variables, its support and the associated … decision rules. We differ from existing methods, however, in how we use simulation data to approximate decision rules. Instead …
