Recent Econometric Techniques for Macroeconomic and Financial Data
Author : Gilles Dufrénot
Published by Springer NaturePublished since 2020-11-21
The book provides a comprehensive overview of the latest econometric methods for studying the dynamics of macroeconomic and financial time series.
It examines alternative methodological approaches and concepts, including quantile spectra and co-spectra, and explores topics such as non-linear and non-stationary behavior, stochastic volatility models, and the econometrics of commodity markets and globalization.
Furthermore, it demonstrates the application of recent techniques in various fields: in the frequency domain, in the analysis of persistent dynamics, in the estimation of state space models and new classes of volatility models.
The book is divided into two parts: The first part applies econometrics to the field of macroeconomics, discussing trend/cycle decomposition, growth analysis, monetary policy and international trade.
The second part applies econometrics to a wide range of topics in financial economics, including price dynamics in equity, commodity and foreign exchange markets and portfolio analysis.
The book is essential reading for scholars, students, and practitioners in government and financial institutions interested in applying recent econometric time series methods to financial and economic data.
Asset Management at Central Banks and Monetary Authorities
Author : Jacob Bjorheim
Published by Springer NaturePublished since 2020-09-07
In response to the Global Financial Crisis and the COVID-19 pandemic, central banks have used all available instruments in their monetary policy tool-kit to avoid financial market disruptions and a collapse in real economic activities.
These actions have expanded the size of their balance sheets and altered the composition of the asset-side.
This edited book highlights how these assets are managed, providing an intellectual and practical contribution to an under-researched field of central bank responsibilities.
It first reviews the sources and uses of domestic and international assets and how they complement—or possibly conflict with—the implementation of monetary policy goals.
Next, the book examines the asset management mandate in a balance sheet context before turning to the investment decision-making process from strategic and tactical asset allocation to investment strategies, risk management, governance, reporting and control.
Finally, it presents new developments in the field of managing assets at central banks.
The individual chapters are written by central bankers, academics, and representatives from International Financial Institutions, each representing a particular aspect of the asset management practice.
Practical and powerful insights from a hall of fame of investors, central bankers and scholars, are packed into this one volume.
If you could have only one book on central bank asset management, this would be it.

—Leon Myburgh, Former Head Financial Markets Department, South African Reserve Bank (SARB), Pretoria This is an immensely timely book at a time when central bank operations, and their balance sheets, remain “larger for longer”.
Following the Financial Crisis 10 years ago, and with the Covid-19 Recession about to break, central bank balance sheets are at the forefront of the authorities’ response to economic issues as never before.
Yet the management of their now large-scale assets remains a little known and little studied area.
The authors of this book combine extensive technical and practical experience, and their observations will fill an important gap in the literature at a critical time.
—Freyr Hermannsson, Former Head of Treasury, Central Bank of Iceland, Reykjavík
