Modeling model uncertainty

[PDF] from ecb.de
A Onatski… - 2003 - nber.org
Recently there has been a great deal of interest in studying monetary policy under model
uncertainty. We point out that different assumptions about the uncertainty may result in
drastically different robust'policy recommendations. Therefore, we develop new methods ...

M Cagetti, LP Hansen, T Sargent… - Review of Financial …, 2002 - Soc Financial Studies
Abstract We study how decision‐makers' concerns about robustness affect prices and
quantities in a stochastic growth model. In the model economy, growth rates in technology
are altered by infrequent large shocks and continuous small shocks. An investor observes ...
