Michele Lenza<https://www.ecb.europa.eu/pub/research/authors/profiles/michele-lenza.en.ht…> European Central Bank Priors for the long run Abstract: We propose a class of prior distributions that discipline the long-run behavior of Vector Autoregressions (VARs). These priors can be naturally elicited using economic theory, which provides guidance on the joint dynamics of macroeconomic time series in the long run. Our priors for the long run are conjugate, and can thus be trivially implemented using dummy observations and combined with other popular priors. In VARs with standard macroeconomic variables, a prior based on the long-run predictions of a wide class of dynamic stochastic general equilibrium models yields substantial improvements in the forecasting performance. . paper jointly with: Domenico Giannone and Giogio E.

The designer uses future allocation decisions to elicit private information. Values evolve according to a two-state Markov chain. We solve for the optimal allocation rule, which permits a simple implementation. Unlike with transfers, efficiency decreases over time, and both immiseration and its polar opposite are possible long-run outcomes. Considering the limiting environment in which time is continuous, we demonstrate that persistence hurts. paper jointly with Yingni Guo (Northwestern University) We are looking forward to seeing you!

wiiw lunchtime seminar, 27 March 2015

18 Mar '15

Dear Colleague, We cordially invite you to a lunchtime seminar on Friday, 27 March 2015, 11 am wiiw, Vienna 6, Rahlgasse 3, library 2nd floor Building conditional quantitative foresight: the MASST3 model Roberta Capello Full professor of Regional and Urban Economics, Politecnico di Milano Abstract The MASST 3 model (MAcroeconomic - Sectoral - Social - Territorial - Model) is a regional growth forecasting model, at present in its third version, has already been applied in different international projects (ESPON, DGRegio, FP7). The MASST model explains regional growth through two intertwined blocks of equations, a national block and a regional one, giving to both a role on local economic trajectories. National growth depends on the dynamics of the macroeconomic national elements: private consumption growth, private investment growth, public expenditure growth and export and import growth. This part of the model is able to capture macroeconomic effects on regional growth generated by interest rates and public expenditure policies, trends in inflation rates and wages. These policies and trends differ radically among European Countries (between Eastern and Western, Northern and Southern members). In turn, the regional differential component (i.e. the relative regional growth), is dependent on the competitiveness of the local system, based on the efficiency of local resources: the increase in the quality and quantity of production factors in infrastructure endowment, in energy resources, as well as the sectoral and territorial structure of the regions and the interregional spatial linkages. As output, MASST is able to produce regional and national GDP (growth rates and per capita), as well as employment (also divided by manufacturing and services) growth rates and levels. The MASST model has been estimated for 27 EU countries, in a period of time between 1995 and 2011; its regional sub-model has been applied to all NUTS 2 areas of the 27 countries. Roberta Capello is Full Professor of Regional and Urban Economics at Politecnico di Milano (POLIMI), and previously at the University of Molise. In the past, Roberta Capello was President of the Regional Science Association International (RSAI, 2009-2010) and member of the European Regional Science International (1999-2004), of which she was also Treasurer. She was Member of the Coordination Committee of NECTAR, an International Research Network on Transport, Communication and Regional Development (1987-1992). Between 1988 and 1989, she was Visiting Research Fellow by the Centre for Urban and Regional Development Studies of the University of Newcastle (1988-1989). She obtained her Ph.D. in Economics at the Free University in Amsterdam, in 1993. Her first degree in Economic was awarded at Bocconi University in Milan (1986). Prof. Capello has a rich international publications record in the field of regional development and regional economics and has coordinated and/or taken part in many international research projects, several of them funded by the EU (FP, ESPON, DG Regio). Her (and Roberto Camani´s) MASST model has been widely recognised as one of the most powerful tools for regional forecasting. Best regards Univ.Prof.Dr. Michael Landesmann Mag.
