We propose an approach for Bayesian inference in \TV SVARs identified with sign restrictions. The linchpin of our approach is a class of rotation-invariant \TV SVARs in which the prior and posterior densities of any sequence of structural parameters belonging to the class are invariant to...

To date, there exists near consensus among central bankers, economists, and other scholars that the financial cycle...

Knowledge of causal relationships is fundamental for understanding the dynamic mechanisms of ecological systems. To detect such relationships from multivariate time series, Granger causality, an idea first developed in econometrics, has been formulated in terms of vector autoregressive (VAR)...
