An Unintended Consequence of Using "Errors in Variables Shocks" in DSGE Models?

Abstract

This note shows that the common practice of adding on measurement errors or "errors in variables" when estimating DSGE models can imply that there is a lack of co-integration between model and data variables and also between data variables themselves. An analysis is provided of what the nature of the measurement error would be if it was desired to ensure co-integration. It is very unlikely that it would be the white noise shocks that are commonly used.
