We estimate a New Keynesian model with matching frictions and nominal wage rigidities on UK data. We are able to identify important structural parameters, recover the unobservable shocks that have affected the UK economy since 1971 and study the transmission mechanism. With matching frictions,...

We embed convex hiring and investment costs and their interaction in a New Keynesian DSGE model with Nash wage bargaining. We explore the implications with respect to inflation dynamics in the New Keynesian Phillips curve. We use two structural estimation methods (GMM and Bayesian estimation)...
