Nonstationary Discrete Choice
This paper develops an asymptotic theory for time series discrete choice models with explanatory variables generated as integrated processes and with multiple choices and threshold parameters determining the choices. The theory extends recent work by Park and Phillips (2000) on binary choice models. As in this earlier work, the maximum likelihood (ML) estimator is consistent and has a limit the...
متن کاملInformed Speculation and the Choice of Exchange Rate Regime
This paper explores the classic question regarding the costs and bene ̄ts of limiting exchange rate volatility starting from the premise that asset markets play an important role in aggregating information. I ̄nd that government trading, despite being completely observed, alters the ability of an asset market to reveal information. The main insight of the paper is that managing the exchange rate...
متن کاملThe Choice of Exchange-rate Regime and Speculative Attacks
We develop a framework for studying the choice of exchange rate regime in an open economy where the local currency is vulnerable to speculative attacks. The framework makes it possible to study, for the first time, the strategic interaction between the ex ante choice of regime and the likelihhod of ex post currency attacks. The optimal regime is determined by a policymaker who trades off the lo...
متن کاملAn Empirical Investigation into Exchange Rate Regime Choice and Exchange Rate Volatility
We test a simple model of exchange rate regime choice with data for 65 non-OECD countries covering the period 1980-94. We find that the variance of output at home and in potential target countries as well as the correlation between home and foreign real activity are powerful and robust predictors of exchange rate regime choice. Surprisingly, a more volatile foreign economy can be an argument in...
متن کاملDiscrete Choice Modeling
Do the results change substantially when the restriction is imposed? Does the estimate of ρ change? The hypothesis of interest is H0: β1 = β2. You can test this hypothesis using these models with a likelihood ratio test. Compute twice the difference in the log likelihoods. What are the degrees of freedom for the test? What is the 95% critical value from the chi squared table? (It is also possib...
