Forecast-error-based estimation of forecast uncertainty when the horizon is increased
Knüppel, Malte - 2014
(2014) in order to relax the condition on the data structure required for the SUR estimator to be independent from unknown … quantities. It turns out that the SUR estimator of forecast uncertainty tends to deliver large efficiency gains compared to the … OLS estimator (i.e. the sample mean of the squared forecast errors) in the case of increased forecast horizons. The SUR …

Assessing the uncertainty in central banks' inflation outlooks
Knüppel, Malte; Schultefrankenfeld, Guido - 2019
Recent research has found that macroeconomic survey forecasts of uncertainty exhibit several deficiencies, such as horizon-dependent biases and lower accuracy than simple unconditional uncertainty forecasts. We examine the inflation uncertainty forecasts from the Bank of England, the Banco...

Forecasting inflation in Argentina
Garegnani, María Lorena; Gómez Aguirre, Maximiliano - 2018
In 2016 the Central Bank of Argentina began to announce inflation targets. In this context, providing authorities with good estimates of relevant macroeconomic variables is crucial for making pertinent corrections in order to reach the desired policy goals. This paper develops a group of models...

Modeling and Forecasting a Firm's Financial Statements with a VAR-VECM Model
Doornik, Bernardus Ferdinandus Nazar Van; de Medeiros, … - 2009
This paper details efforts at developing and estimating a Vector Autoregressive (VAR) econometric model representative of the financial statements of a firm. Although the model can be generalized to represent the financial statements of any firm, this work was carried out as a case study, where...

Industry and Time Specific? An Examination of Bankruptcy Forecasting
Cooksley, Ben - 2016
The purpose of this research is to determine whether bankruptcy forecasting models are subject to industry and time specific effects. A sample of 15,848 firms was obtained from the Compustat and CRSP databases, spanning the time period 1950 to 2013, of which 396 were bankrupt. Using five models...

Forecasting Inflation in Post-Oil Boom Years : A Case for Regime Switches?
Ahmadov, Vugar - 2016
In this study, we investigate relative performance of various non-linear models against that of an autoregressive model in forecasting future inflation. We find that non-linear models have trivial forecast superiority over the univariate autoregressive model in terms of central forecast...
