This paper conducts an empirical analysis of the heterogeneity of recessions in monthly U.S. coincident and leading indicator variables. Univariate Markovswitching models indicate that it is appropriate to allow for two distinct recession regimes, corresponding with 'mild' and 'severe'...

We explore a century-long dataset with a Markov-switching structural VAR to estimate state-dependent government spending multipliers. We show that the multiplier values are statistically larger during recessions than during expansions. However, the multipliers are always smaller than 1. Our...

Duration dependent Markov-switching VAR (DDMS-VAR) models are time series models with data generating process consisting in a mixture of two VAR processes. The switching between the two VAR processes is governed by a two state Markov chain with transition probabilities that depend on how long...

Wir konstruieren ein neues Modell unbeobachteter Komponenten mit Markov-Switching zur Analyse von Hysterese-Effekten, also der Verfestigung ursprünglich zyklischer Fluktuationen. Das Modell kombiniert die Bestandteile einer Trend-Zyklus Zerlegung, der Identifikation von gegenseitigen...

The goal of this paper is to evaluate the behavior of the main parameters of the Brazilian economy through the estimation of an open-economy dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) model using Bayesian methods and allowing for Markov switching of certain parameters. Using the DSGE model...

I conduct a risk analysis of Brazil’s sovereign credit. My focus is on possible changes since 2016. Using a country …-level balance sheet framework, I analyze how Brazil’s liabilities pressure its assets, increasing borrowing needs and default …. Because of its export composition, Brazil faces risk from export demand volatility, and revenue is unable to hold this …
