Specify a large BVAR with data at different frequencies #266

Open pfjulio opened 4 years ago

pfjulio commented 4 years ago

Dear Benes,

What is the best way to estimate a BVAR where some variables are at quarterly frequency and others are at montly frequency?

The purpose of this would be to use monthly indicators to predict (forecast) variables which are at quarterly frequency.

Many thanks.

jaromir-benes commented 4 years ago

Hi

The best way is to estimate a VAR on a quarterly frequency basis with each monthly indicator included as three separate variables, e.g. x1, x2, x3, for the first month in a quarter, the second month in a quarter, the third month in a quarter. Usually some parameter restrictions and/or dummy prior observations are needed. I will write an example for you when I have some more time.

I'm attaching two examples (of many) of the papers that set up a VAR that way (skip the more technical stuff about bayesian estimation -- not needed, this can be incorporated in a more straightforward/simpler way).

Best Jaromir

Many thanks Jeromir. When you have the opportunity, I would be thankful if you could attach the papers you mention.

Dear Jaromir,

Hope everything is well with you.

Do you have any knowledge of papers that estimate the BVAR at different frequencies the way you mention below?

Kind regards, Paulo

Oh, you need to send the email address directly to me @.*** - it is blacked out automatically in GitHub messages otherwise.

HI Paulo - I attached two papers in the previous message. You didn't

receive them? Best, J

Dear Jaromir,

Hope everything is well with you.

Do you have any knowledge of papers that estimate the BVAR at different

frequencies the way you mention below?

Kind regards,

Paulo

Hi

The best way is to estimate a VAR on a quarterly frequency basis with

each

monthly indicator included as three separate variables, e.g. x1, x2, x3,

for the first month in a quarter, the second month in a quarter, the

third

month in a quarter. Usually some parameter restrictions and/or dummy

prior

observations are needed. I will write an example for you when I have some

more time.

I'm attaching two examples (of many) of the papers that set up a VAR that

way (skip the more technical stuff about bayesian estimation -- not

needed,

this can be incorporated in a more straightforward/simpler way).

Best

Jaromir

Dear Benes,

What is the best way to estimate a BVAR where some variables are at

quarterly frequency and others are at montly frequency?

The purpose of this would be to use monthly indicators to predict

(forecast) variables which are at quarterly frequency.

Many thanks.
