Abstract

[eng] The authors propose two methodological improvements in calibration, i.e., the econometric relationships between qualitative data from business surveys and quantified macroeconomic data. The first consists in estimating different calibrations for each month in the quarter, in order to make the best statistical use of the information available when each monthly survey is published. The second consists in implementing a more “ systematic ” estimation method based on an algorithm recently presented by Krolzig and Hendry. The latter allows an “ automatic ” reproduction of the London School of Economics econometric methodology. The results obtained empirically validate the theoretical contribution of both methods. [fre] Cet article propose deux améliorations méthodologiques à la pratique des étalonnages, c’est-à-dire les relations économétriques reliant les données macroéconomiques quantifiées aux données qualitatives des enquêtes de conjoncture. La première consiste à estimer des étalonnages différents selon le mois dans le trimestre , afin d’utiliser statistiquement au mieux l’information disponible à la sortie de chaque enquête mensuelle. La seconde consiste à mettre en œuvre une méthode d’estimation plus «systématique », reposant sur un algorithme proposé récemment par Krolzig et Hendry permettant de reproduire «automatiquement » la méthodologie économétrique de la London School of Economics. Les résultats obtenus valident empiriquement l’apport théorique de ces deux méthodes.
