A time-varying parameter consumption model for the UK

Author

  • Haiyan Song

Abstract

This paper uses a time varying parameter (TVP) approach to model and forecast the aggregate consumers' expenditure on non-durables and services in the UK. The results suggest that the TVP method is particularly useful in forecasting when the structure of the consumption model is unstable.
