Risk indeed matters: Uncertainty shocks in an oil-exporting economy

No 16, NAC Analytica Working Paper from NAC Analytica, Nazarbayev University

Abstract: We extend the literature on the role of uncertainty shocks in small open economies using a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) model with stochastic volatility for the economy of Kazakhstan. We build a small-scale DSGE model for Kazakhstan with non-linear time-varying volatility of shock processes. Due to the inherent non-linearity in the model we estimate the parameters of the volatility processes using the Particle filter, and then estimate structural parameters of the model via simulated method of moments (SMM)
