On the time-varying effects of economic policy uncertainty on the US economy
Prüser, Jan; Schlösser, Alexander - 2018
We study the time-varying impact of Economic Policy Uncertainty (EPU) on the US Economy by using a VAR with time-varying coefficients. The coefficients are allowed to evolve gradually over time which allows us to discover structural changes without imposing them a priori. We find three different...

Identifying key macroeconomic shocks to Canadian GDP
Sayeed, Jamil - 2020
This paper seeks to identify the largest two shocks that can explain the movement in Canadian GDP for the period 1981Q1 to 2011Q4. I employ a very flexible identification method proposed by Uhlig (2003) that allows us to identify the key shocks from the time series data without imposing any...

Are Crime Rates Really Stationary?
Joakim, Westerlund; Johan, Blomquist - 2009
Many empirical studies of the economics of crime focus solely on the determinants thereof, and do not consider the dynamic and cross-sectional properties of their data. As a response to this, the current paper offers an in-depth analysis of this issue using data covering 21 Swedish counties from...

The effects of economic policy uncertainty on European economies: Evidence from a TVP-FAVAR
Prüser, Jan; Schlösser, Alexander - 2017
Recent events such as the financial and sovereign debt crisis have triggered an increase in European Economic Policy Uncertainty (EPU). We use a TVP-FAVAR model with hierarchical priors on the hyperparameters to investigate the effect of EPU on a wide range of macroeconomic variables for eleven...
