Identification through heteroskedasticity in heteroskedastic simultaneous equations models (HSEMs) is considered. The possibility that heteroskedasticity identifies the structural parameters only partially is explicitly allowed for. The asymptotic properties of the identified parameters are...

In the framework of structural VAR models with ARCH effect, we show that a sufficient condition for the local identification of a structural model is that at most one structural shock is homoskedastic. Our approach is based on a result of Rothenberg (1971)
