We examine the global dimension of inflation in 24 OECD countries between 1980 and 2007in a traditional Phillips curve … affect inflation through (the common part of) domestic demand and supplyconditions. Our most important result is that the … common component of changes in unit laborcosts notably affects inflation. We also find evidence that movements in import …

We use a cohort based model to analyse determinants of labour force participation fordisaggregated groups of workers in the euro area and the five largest euro areacountries. The model captures age and cohort effects as indicators of (unobserved)determinants of participation behaviour. We use...

In jüngerer Zeit sind im professionellen Portfoliomanagement zunehmend Faktorenmodelle in den Vordergrund bei der Investment-Analyse gerückt und haben klassische Modelle wie das CAPM mehr und mehr verdrängt. Charakte-ristisch für diese Modelle ist, daß lediglich ein...

Zusammenfassung. In jüngerer Zeit werden in zunehmendem Maße Ansätze der Arbitrage Pricing Theory im praktischen Portfoliomanagement eingesetzt. Eine wichtige Klasse stellen die „fundamentalen Faktoren-Modelle“ dar, bei denen unternehmensspezifische Variablen, wie z.B....

In this article we propose several pathwise and finite difference basedmethods for calculating sensitivities of Bermudan options using regressionmethods and Monte Carlo simulation. These methods rely on conditionalprobabilistic representations which allow, in combination with aregression...

In this paper we carry over the concept of reverse probabilistic representations developed in Milstein, Schoenmakers, Spokoiny (2004) for diffusion processes, to discrete time Markov chains. We outline the construction of reverse chains in several situations and apply this to processes which are...

Here we develop an approach for efficient pricing discrete-time American and Bermudan options which employs the fact that such options are equivalent to theEuropean ones with a consumption, combined with analysis of the market model over a small number of steps ahead. This approach allows...

This paper investigates the finite sample properties of confidence intervals for structural vector error correction models (SVECMs) with long-run identifying restrictions on the impulse response functions. The simulation study compares methods that are frequently used in applied SVECM studies...
