NumOutputs: Constructs the model numerical outputs (model fit, IRFs,...

In MultiATSM: Multicountry Term Structure of Interest Rates Models

Constructs the model numerical outputs (model fit, IRFs, GIRFs, FEVDs, GFEVDs, and term premia)

Description

Constructs the model numerical outputs (model fit, IRFs, GIRFs, FEVDs, GFEVDs, and term premia)

Usage

NumOutputs(
  ModelType,
  ModelPara,
  InputsForOutputs,
  FactorLabels,
  Economies,
  Folder2save = NULL,
  verbose = TRUE
)

Arguments

ModelType	character. Model type to be estimated. Permissible choices: "JPS original", "JPS global", "GVAR single", "JPS multi", "GVAR multi", "JLL original", "JLL No DomUnit", "JLL joint Sigma".
ModelPara	list. Point estimates of the model parameters. See outputs from Optimization
InputsForOutputs	list. Inputs for generating IRFs, GIRFs, FEVDs, GFEVDs, and Term Premia.
FactorLabels	list. Labels for all variables present in the model, as returned by LabFac.
Economies	character vector. Names of the C economies included in the system.
Folder2save	Folder path where the outputs will be stored. Default option saves the outputs in a temporary directory.
verbose	Logical flag controlling function messaging. Default is TRUE.

Details

Both IRFs and FEVDs are computed using the Cholesky decomposition method. The risk factors are ordered as follows: (i) global unspanned factors, and (ii) domestic unspanned and spanned factors for each country. The order of countries follows the sequence defined in the Economies vector.

Value

An object of class 'ATSMNumOutputs' containing the following keys elements:

1. Model parameter estimates

2. Model fit of bond yields

3. IRFs

4. FEVDs

5. GIRFs

6. GFEVDs

7. Bond yield decomposition

Available methods

- 'autoplot(object, type)'
