We find empirical evidence of a financial accelerator using a data based procedure of Structural Model Design. Credit to firms, asset prices and aggregate economic activity interact over the business cycle in our empirical model of a dynamic economy. Furthermore, the interdependence between...

We show that by carefully specifying the structural equations and by extending the standard notion of instrumental … governing the unobservables, as these play a crucial role in creating obstacles or opportunities for identification. Because our … results exhaust the possibilities for identification, we ensure that there are no other opportunities for identification based …

This study investigates the dynamic linkages between oil prices and stock markets, also known as the oil price–stock price nexus. Within the framework of a VAR (vector autoregression) we examine dynamic interactions between daily Brent spot prices and several Lebanese stock prices. As...

This study examines the dynamic relationship between changes in oil prices and the economic policy uncertainty index for a sample of both net oil-exporting and net oil-importing countries over the period 1997:01-2013:06. To achieve that, we extend the Diebold and Yilmaz (2009, 2012) dynamic...

We estimate an SVAR model for the Australian economy based on an open economy New Keynesian model that accounts for the forward-looking behaviour exhibited by economic agents. Deep structural parameters are identified by placing exclusion restrictions on the VAR residuals and the covariance...

In a recent article Canova et al. (2014) study the optimal choice of variables to use in the estimation of a simplified version of the Smets and Wouters (2007) model. In this comment I examine their conclusions by applying a different methodology to the same model. The results call into question...
