This paper shows that the evolution of the level of Mexico real and real per capita output between 1895 and 2008 can be adequately described through a trendstationary model, affected by 4 structural breaks, which occurred at dates that seem to coincide with domestic institutional arrangements,...

This work analyses the results of the Standard of Living Surveys (SFSs) conducted in Medellín during 2004 and 2005 in order to establish the city's advances in human development and standard of living in the administration period of former mayor Sergio Fajardo up to 2006. This article is framed...

It has been found that the t-statistic for testing the null of no relationship between two independent variables diverges asymptotically under a wide variety of nonstationary data generating processes. This paper introduces a simple method which guarantees convergence of this t-statistic to a...

Spanish Abstract: Se presentan los resultados básicos de la teoría de control óptimo en contextos estocásticos y su aplicación en el planteamiento y resolución de problemas financieros. En particular se consideran los problemas de selección óptima de portafolios y la valoración de...

Spanish Abstract: Los fondos de pensiones deben cumplir una restricción de retorno mínimo que se basa en un benchmark definido a partir de la diversificación promedio asociada a cada uno de los cinco tipos de fondos que cada empresa vigente en esta industria gestiona y que los trabajadores...

We present a new heteroskedastic conditional variance model using NonLinear Moving Average as the basis for this specification [NLMACH(q)]. The typical problem of this class of models-i.e., noninvertibility—is solved by means of an intuitive parametric restriction; this allows us to use...
