A generalised stochastic volatility in mean VAR

Author

Listed:
  • Mumtaz, Haroon
Abstract
This note introduces a VAR with stochastic volatility in mean where the shocks of the volatility equations and the observation equations are allowed to be correlated. We provide a Gibbs algorithm to approximate the posterior distribution and demonstrate the proposed methods by estimating the impact of financial uncertainty shocks on the US economy.
