In this article we propose a simple method of identifying, at an earlier stage of analysis, the nested structure among the coefficient matrices in multivariate regression models. When the limiting distribution of the estimators of the coefficient matrices are jointly normal, the Wald type...

We develop a method for directly modeling cointegrated multivariate time series that are observed in mixed frequencies. We regard lower-frequency data as regularly (or irregularly) missing and treat them with higher-frequency data by adopting a state-space model. This utilizes the structure of...
