This paper extends the existing literature on linear quadratic adjustment cost (LQAC) models under rational expectations to the inferential issues arising when: (i) agents optimise with respect to a vector of endogenous variables; (ii) the behavioural equations stemming from the agent's...

This paper studies the evolution of long-run output and labour productivity growth rates in the G-7 countries during the post-war period. We estimate the growth rates consistent with a constant unemployment rate using time-varying parameter models that incorporate both stochastic volatility and...

We propose a brand new class of time series model and analyze its statistical properties and estimation method. We demonstrated that the model is able to successfully model and forecast the high frequency stock prices

In the present paper, we propose a new approach to investigate the logistic function, which is commonly used in mathematical models in economics and management. The approach is based on indicating in a given time series, having a logistic trend, some characteristic points corresponding to zeroes...

Current understanding holds that financial contagion is driven mainly by system-wide interconnectedness of institutions. A distinction has been made between systematic and idiosyncratic channels of contagion, with shocks transmitted through the latter expected to be substantially more likely to...
