On Fiscal Multipliers: Estimates from a Medium Scale DSGE Model

Working Paper 2010-30 - Sarah Zubairy

This paper contributes to the debate on fiscal multipliers, in the context of a structural model. I estimate a micro-founded dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model, that features a rich fiscal policy block and a transmission mechanism for government spending shocks, using Bayesian techniques for US data.
Topic: Economic models; Fiscal Policy
