This article compares top-down and bottom-up methods for obtaining regional projections for policy analysis using computable general equilibrium models. In view of the computing and data problems of bottom-up, multisectoral models, a hybrid approach is proposed in which a partially regionalized...

This paper describes a method for introducing more regional detail into an applied general equilibrium model than is available from the top-down approach to disaggregation. Recognizing that the complete set of inter-regional accounts is rarely available, the method described uses available data...
