Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) models are the leading framework that macroeconomists have for dealing with this challenge … in an open and transparent manner. This paper reviews the state of DSGE models before the financial crisis and how DSGE … modelers responded to the crisis and its aftermath. In addition, we discuss the role of DSGE models in the policy process …

Monetary DSGE models are widely used because they fit the data well and they can be used to address important monetary … policy questions. We provide a selective review of these developments. Policy analysis with DSGE models requires using data …

DSGE models. U.S. output growth and the federal funds rate display nonlinear conditional mean dynamics, while inflation and … nominal wage growth feature conditional heteroskedasticity. We estimate a DSGE model with asymmetric wage/price adjustment …

Markov-switching DSGE (MSDSGE) modeling has become a growing body of literature on economic and policy issues related … system of quadratic polynomial equations. We propose to use the theory of Gröbner bases for solving such a quadratic system …

Recent work has analyzed the forecasting performance of standard dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) models …, but little attention has been given to DSGE models that incorporate nonlinearities in exogenous driving processes. Against … that background, we explore whether incorporating stochastic volatility improves DSGE forecasts (point, interval, and …

A rich economic literature has examined the human capital impacts of disease-eliminating health interventions, such as the rollout of new vaccines. This literature is based on reduced-form approaches which exploit proxies for disease burden, such as mortality, instead of actual infection counts,...

Infectious disease is currently the main cause of mortality in the world and has been even more important historically. This paper reviews recent research in economic epidemiology. Specifically, it discusses the occurrence of infectious diseases and the effects of public health interventions...
