Implications of Cointegration for Forecasting: A Review and an Empirical Analysis
Cointegration has different theoretical implications for forecasting. Several empirical studies have compared the out of sample forecasting performance of cointegrted VECMs against unrestricted VARs in levels and in differences. The results of these studies have been generally mixed and inconclusive. This paper provides a comprehensive review over the subject, and also examines the effects...
متن کاملTowards an Erlang formula for multiclass networks
Consider a multiclass stochastic network with state dependent service rates and arrival rates describing bandwidth-sharing mechanisms as well as admission control and/or load balancing schemes. Given Poisson arrival and exponential service requirements, the number of customers in the network evolves as a multi-dimensional birth-and-death process on a finite subset of N. We assume that the death...
متن کاملCompeting in the Marketspace: an Empirical Study
Following a unique study, 'Competing in the Marketspace', conducted in February 1997, it became apparent that although more than half of all surveyed organisations have established a significant commercial presence in the Marketspace, about a third have only a rudimentary commercial presence, and need to catch up fast to remain competitive.

متن کاملWeight of Risk Factors for Adjusting Capitation in Primary Health Care: A Systematic Review
Background: Capitation payment is the best-known strategy for paying providers in primary health care. Since health care needs and personal characteristics play an essential role in health care utilization and resource spending, there is a growing tendency on risk adjustment models among health researchers. The objective of this systematic review was to examine the weights used for risk adjust...
متن کاملa benchmarking approach to optimal asset allocation for insurers and pension funds
uncertainty in the financial market will be driven by underlying brownian motions, while the assets are assumed to be general stochastic processes adapted to the filtration of the brownian motions. the goal of this study is to calculate the accumulated wealth in order to optimize the expected terminal value using a suitable utility function. this thesis introduced the lim-wong’s benchmark fun...
