Aggregate demand gap based on a simple structural VAR model

Author

  • Cho, Dongchul

Abstract

This paper presents aggregate demand gaps for seven OECD countries using structural VAR estimation. These estimates are far more robust than HP-filtered series–typical estimates for GDP-gaps–and demonstrate that both aggregate demand and supply shocks were important in the recent global financial crisis.
