What do the VARs mean? Measuring the output effects of monetary policy
Article Abstract:
VARs help in measuring the effects of monetary policy by giving a detailed background of output and other variables resulting from such policy. They illustrate the history of output effects in terms of mean values of money, output and interest rates, among other variables. In measuring the effects of monetary shock, economic identifying assumptions are also taken into considerations.
