This paper presents the first results of an ongoing project aimed at building and putting into operation a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) model for Brazil. The model is based on Smets and Wouters (2003) and Christiano ET AL.(2005), to which we add features that are typical of...

This paper presents the first results of an ongoing project aimed at building and putting into operation a "dynamic stochastic general equilibrium" (DSGE) model for Brazil. The model is based on Smets and Wouters (2003) and Christiano ET AL.(2005), to which we add features that are typical of...

This paper analyzes the dynamic properties of a DSGE model for Brazil, under alternative model parameterizations. First, we carefully review the literature in order to identify "admissible ranges" for the model's parameters. We then calculate selected impulse response functions (IRF) under...

This paper analyzes the macroeconomic impacts derived from the recognition of previously unreported fiscal liabilities during 2015 in Brazil. This is done within a DSGE model with a detailed public sector developed and calibrated for the Brazilian economy. The gradual recognition of these fiscal...

O objetivo deste texto é analisar as propriedades dinâmicas de um modelo Dinâmico Estocástico de Equilíbrio Geral - Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) - para o Brasil, sob parametrizações alternativas do modelo. Inicialmente, apresenta-se uma revisão cuidadosa da literatura,...

Este texto apresenta os primeiros resultados de um projeto em andamento cujo objetivo é construir e operacionalizar um modelo dinâmico estocástico de equilíbrio geral (DSGE, na sigla em inglês) para o Brasil. O arcabouço teórico básico é importado dos modelos de Smets e Wouters (2003) e...

We estimate a DSGE model for Brazil that includes both anticipated and unanticipated fiscal shocks. The model contains a relatively detailed public sector, which allows us to investigate the effects of anticipation for a much wider array of fiscal instruments than previously considered in the...
