In this paper, we estimate a logit mixture vector autoregressive (Logit-MVAR) model describing monetary policy transmission in the euro area over the period 1999-2015. MVARs allow us to differentiate between different states of the economy. In our model, the time-varying state weights are...

We estimate a logit mixture vector autoregressive model describing monetary policy transmission in the euro area over the period 2003Q1-2019Q4 with a special emphasis on credit conditions. With the help of this model, monetary policy transmission can be described as mixture of two states (e.g.,...

Recursively identified vector autoregressive (VAR) models often lead to a counterintuitive response of prices (and output) shortly after a monetary policy shock. To overcome this problem, we propose to estimate the VAR parameters under the restriction that economic theory is not violated, while...

In a register-assisted census, the main information about the population is obtained from population registers. Additionally, a sample is drawn to allow for the estimation of population counts for variables that are not included in the registers. Typically, registers suffer from over and...

Zusammenfassung Das Instrumentarium der Fuzzy-Set-Theorie bietet die Möglichkeit, bei der Armutsmessung jeder Einheit einen Grad der Zugehörigkeit zur Gesamtheit der Armen zuzuordnen. Eine scharfe Armutsgrenze, wie sie bei traditioneller Armutsmessung benötigt wird, ist entbehrlich. Darüber...
