Development of general methodology for estimating complex time series models. This project will develop novel methods and models for analysing socio-economic and financial data measured over time and will illustrate them with applications. The methods will allow for more efficient and more accurate processing of information and better forecasting which will facilitate better management and more timely policy response.

Pooling econometric models for prediction and decision making. The project develops methods for combining econometric models with the goal of improving prediction. It applies these methods to macroeconomic models used to improve monetary policy and to asset return models used to improve financial risk management.
