      Furlanetto, Francesco; Robstad, Ørjan; Ulvedal, Pål; Lepetit, Antoine (Working Paper;13/2020, Working paper, 2020)
      In this paper we extend the standard Blanchard-Quah decomposition to enable fluctuations in aggregate demand to have a long-run impact on the productive capacity of the economy through hysteresis effects. These demand ...

      Bjørnland, Hilde C.; Halvorsen, Jørn Inge (Working Papers;15/2008, Working paper, 2008)

    • Identification of Financial Factors in Economic Fluctuations 

      Furlanetto, Francesco; Ravazzolo, Francesco; Sarferaz, Samad (Working Papers;9/2014, Working paper, 2014)
      We estimate demand, supply, monetary, investment and financial shocks in a VAR identified with a minimum set of sign restrictions on US data. We find that financial shocks are major drivers of fluctuations in output, stock ...
    • Underidentified SVAR Models: A Framework for Combining Short and Long-Run Restrictions with Sign-Restrictions

      I describe a new method for imposing zero restrictions (both short and long-run) in combination with conventional sign-restrictions. In particular I extend the Rubio-Ramirez et al. (2010) algorithm for applying short and ...
