Abstract

This paper uses a modified version of the DSGE model estimated in Smets and Wouters (2003) to generate a prior distribution for a vector autoregression, following the approach in Del Negro and Schorfheide (2003). This DSGE-VAR is fitted to Euro area data on GDP, consumption, investment, nominal wages, hours worked, inflation, M2, and a short-term interest rate. We document the fit of the DSGE-VAR
