16th IWH-CIREQ Macroeconometric Workshop : Challenges for Forecasting – Structural Breaks, Revisions and Measurement Errors

Halle Institute for Economic Research and the Centre interuniversitaire de recherche en économie quantitative (CIREQ) are organizing the 16th Macroeconometric Workshop to be held in Halle (Saale) on December 7, 2015.

The workshop provides a platform to discuss new developments in the field of empirical and applied macroeconomic modelling and aims at bringing together academic researchers and practitioners. We invite applied and theoretical papers dealing with time series and business cycles, international macroecono­metrics and finance. Pa­pers that explicitly cover aspects of struc­tural breaks in forecast analyses, real-time data, revisions and error measurement are par­ticularly welcome.

Keynote Speakers: 

• Richard Dutu (OECD)
• Simon Price (Bank of England)
• Tara M. Sinclair (The George Washington University)
