We estimate a generalized version of the Long-Run Risk model in a panel of developed and developing countries using consumption, dividend growth, and asset returns data by utilizing the particle filter, while allowing for measurement errors in consumption data at quarterly and annual...

Factor modeling is a popular strategy to induce sparsity in multivariate models as they scale to higher dimensions. We develop Bayesian inference for a recently proposed latent factor copula model, which utilizes a pair copula construction to couple the variables with the latent factor. We use...

We propose a new measure of underlying inflation that informs, in real time, about asymmetric risks on the outlook of inflationary pressures. The asymmetries are generated through nonlinearities induced by economic activity. The new indicator is based on a multivariate regime-switching framework...
