The financial crisis of 2008–2009 and the global lockdown caused by the COVID-19 pandemic demonstrated the vulnerability of the modern economy. As a result, a new framework (Growth-at-Risk) has been developed which allows the estimation of the size of the potential downfall of future GDP growth. However, most of the research focuses on the performance of quantile regression. I apply different approaches to forecasting growth-at-risk, including quantile regression, quantile random forests, and generalised autoregressive conditional heteroscedastic (GARCH) models, using the US economy for the analysis. I find that GARCH-type models perform worse at 5% and 10% coverage levels, but that quantile random forests and quantile regressions seem to have equal predictive ability.","PeriodicalId":358692,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Money and Finance","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129804475","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Production efficiency shocks explain more than half of the variance of key variables (both conditional and unconditional). The version with structural breaks produces much better median-based forecasting measures and almost the same mean-based forecasting measures due to significant errors near structural breaks.

The analysis is based on a Global VAR model, which allows to take into account mutual influences of processes in the countries of the currency union. Identification of unconventional monetary policy shock is conducted using a shadow interest rate which reflects changes in economic agents’ expectations following the announcement of unconventional monetary policy measures. The model is estimated using data for the euro area from 2007 to 2018 and covers all of the key instances of implementation of unconventional measures by the ECB. The results show that expansionary policy leads to a significant rise in output and prices in the euro area. Additionally, the effects of unconventional monetary policy are heterogeneous across countries: the response to unconventional monetary policy shock is insignificant in countries that are strongly affected by the crisis, and the effectiveness of the measures varies across countries with different levels of banking sector capitalisation. It was also found that the efficiency of unconventional monetary policy measures against deflation depends upon spillovers of the interaction between core and periphery countries in the monetary union.","PeriodicalId":358692,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Money and Finance","volume":"204 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131237164","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The scientific contribution of this paper is threefold. First, along with feed-forward, fully connected neural networks, we use sequence-to-sequence model recurrent neural networks, which take the time-series structure of the sample dataset into account. Second, in addition to univariate long short-term memory models, we include additional macroeconomic indicators in order to estimate multivariate recurrent neural networks. Third, the model evaluation process considers revisions of statistical information in real-time datasets. In order to increase the model’s predictive performance, we use additional unstructured indicators: search queries and news indices. Relative to the structural model of unemployment dynamics, the mean absolute forecast error for one month ahead is reduced by 65%, to 0.12 percentage points of the unemployment rate in the recurrent neural networks and long short-term memory models, and by 56%, to 0.14 percentage points in the modified gradient boosting algorithms. When accounting for revisions of statistical information, further reduction of the root-mean-square error by the models proposed is revealed, which highlights the importance of accounting for possible changes in the calculation of the values of macroeconomic indicators.","PeriodicalId":358692,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Money and Finance","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131362710","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the first stage of the research, we estimate the responses of regional investment to interbank market rate shocks using structural vector autoregressions. In the second stage, we estimate regression models using impulse responses as dependent variables and explanatory factors as independent variables. The regression calculations are performed using the Elastic Net regularisation technique. We find that regions with higher shares of manufacturing, agriculture and construction are more responsive to monetary policy shocks. In addition, we identified the high importance of these sectors in explaining the different effects of monetary policy on investment. The results also show that the larger is the share of the mining and quarrying sector in the gross regional product (GRP) and the greater the imports to GRP ratio, the smaller is the absolute change in investment from a monetary policy shock.","PeriodicalId":358692,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Money and Finance","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132178759","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For each type of retail, we consider the best forecasting models from macroeconomic variables and try to improve them by adding trends. For these purposes, we use pseudo-out-of-sample nowcasting as well as recursive forecasting several months ahead.

According to the theory of demand-side financial imperfections, in the presence of financial frictions, the higher the net worth of a firm, the lower its external finance premium. The theory of the balance sheet channel of monetary policy suggests that monetary shocks may affect the net worth of a firm through debt outflows. Together, these ideas predict that the external finance premium of more indebted companies is more sensitive to monetary policy shocks. However, my empirical findings from the credit spreads of Russian companies do not support this theory.","PeriodicalId":358692,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Money and Finance","volume":"108 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123536886","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
