題名: | Using Forecast Evaluation to Improve the Accuracy of the Greenbook Forecast | 作者: | 荒井夏來 Natsuki Arai |

I use their forecast efficiency evaluation to propose a method for adjusting the Greenbook forecasts. Using this method in a real-time out-of-sample forecasting exercise, I find that it provides modest improvements in the accuracies of the forecasts for the GDP deflator and CPI, but not for other variables. The improvements are statistically significant in some cases, with magnitudes of up to 18% in root mean square prediction error. | 關聯: | International Journal of Forecasting,30(1),12-19 | 資料類型: | article |
