dc.description.abstract |
Building on the time-varying-coefficient (TVC) model, we propose a generalization of the
concept of cointegration, allowing for the possibility that a set of variables measured with
error entails a nonlinear relationship with unknown functional form. Both the dependent
and explanatory variables of this relationship may be nonstationary (not necessarily of
unit-root type), but there exists a nonlinear combination of all these explanatory variables
that completely explains all the variation in the dependent variable. The TVC model
allows us to test for the presence of this generalized cointegration in the absence of
knowledge of the true nonlinear functional form and the full set of explanatory variables.
We present the basic stages of the technique and discuss in detail how the issues of
nonstationarity and cointegration affect each stage of the TVC estimation procedure. |
