In this paper we consider maximum likelihood estimation in some exact and inexact linear rational expectation (LRE) models. The implications of the two models on the coefficients of the vector autoregressive (VAR) model are spelled out. The inexact version is more complicated and possible...

We interpret the linear relations from exact rational expectations models as restrictions on the parameters of the statistical model called the cointegrated vector autoregressive model for non-stationary variables. We then show how reduced rank regression, Anderson (1951), plays an important...
