Macroeconometrics: Advanced Time-Series Analysis

Teacher

RICCO Giovanni

Department: Economics

References

For time-series analysis helpful references are Hamilton (1994), Kilian and
Lütkepohl (2017) and the notes of Cochrane (2005). For those interested,
more technical books are Brockwell and Davis (1991), Hannan (1970) and
Madsen (2008).
Zellner (1996) and Kim and Nelson (1999) are useful references for Bayesian
methods. Del Negro and Schorfheide (2011) provides a very good introduction
to Bayesian methods in macro. Students may also want to have a look
at the two chapters of the Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Economics and
Finance on BVARs (see Miranda-Agrippino and Ricco (2019b,a)).
Structural VARs are discussed in Canova (2007) and Kilian and Lütkepohl
(2017). A comprehensive review article on macroeconomic shocks is Ramey
(2015) in the Handbook of Macroeconomics.
