We develop a time-varying transition probabilities Markov Switching model in which inflation is characterised by two regimes (high and low inflation). Using Bayesian techniques, we apply the model to the euro area, Germany, the US, the UK and Canada for data from the 1960s up to the present. Our...

This study uses a Bayesian VAR to demonstrate that the recent house price boom in Germany can be explained by falling interest rates and that higher interest rates are likely suciffient to stop the increase of German house prices. The latter suggests a potential drawback of the current monetary...

This paper proposes a double tree structured AR-GARCH model for the analysis of stock index return series, which … (local) AR-GARCH model for a partition cell of a (multivariate) state space. Each cell can depend on the conditioning values … for instance the GJR-AR-GARCH model, the double TAR-GARCH model or the VS-GARCH model. We propose a computationally …
