Dynamic treatment regimes are treatment allocations tailored to heterogeneous individuals. The optimal dynamic treatment regime is a regime that maximizes counterfactual welfare. We introduce a framework in which we can partially learn the optimal dynamic regime from observational data, relaxing...

This paper intends to explore one of the relatively less highlighted area viz. interest rate risk management by Indian banks with a view to providing an innovative edge to the specific area in the Indian context. Firstly, the paper aims at building empirical relationships between the average...

This paper presents a dynamic factor model in which the extracted factors and shocks are given a clear economic interpretation. The economic interpretation of the factors is obtained by means of a set of over-identifying loading restrictions, while the structural shocks are estimated following...
