The method of endogenous gridpoints for solving dynamic stochastic optimization problems

No 2005/18, CFS Working Paper Series from Center for Financial Studies (CFS)

Abstract: This paper introduces a method for solving numerical dynamic stochastic optimization problems that avoids rootfinding operations. The idea is applicable to many microeconomic and macroeconomic problems, including life cycle, buffer-stock, and stochastic growth problems. Software is provided.
