Measuring equilibrium models: a multivariate approach

This paper presents a multivariate methodology for obtaining measures of unobserved macroeconomic variables. The used procedure is the multivariate Hodrick-Prescot which depends on smoothing param eters. The choice of these parameters is crucial. Our approach is based on consistent estimators of the...

Description
Summary:This paper presents a multivariate methodology for obtaining measures of unobserved macroeconomic variables. The used procedure is the multivariate Hodrick-Prescot which depends on smoothing param eters. The choice of these parameters is crucial. Our approach is based on consistent estimators of these parameters, depending only on the observed data.
