A Modified Dynamic Probit Model for Identifying andPredicting Recessions

碩士 === 國立臺灣大學 === 經濟學研究所 === 100 === In this study, we propose a two-step method to circumvent the “announcement lag”
problem of the National Bureau of Economic Research recession dummy, which may
not be suitably dealt with by existing studies on the dynamic Probit model. Specifically,
we first identify the sub-sample of the recession dummy, which is unobserved
because of this problem, using the information contained in certain macroeconomic
indices. Then, we estimate the parameters of the dynamic Probit model based on
the interest rate spread tween ten-year and three-month using the identified recession
probabilities, and make the out-of-sample predictions accordingly. We show
that our model is not only useful for circumventing the announcement lag problem
but also for refining the performance of some alternative models.
