ARCA è l'archivio istituzionale ad accesso aperto della ricerca dell'Università Ca' Foscari Venezia e nasce nel 2014 con lo scopo di raccogliere, diffondere e conservare la produzione scientifica dell'Università. Costituisce di fatto il catalogo della ricerca di Ateneo.
ARCA è un sistema Open Access: è non solo consultabile da tutti e visibile nei motori di ricerca, ma anche interoperabile con il portale cerCa. In questo modo vengono valorizzate la produzione scientifica dell'Ateneo e la visibilità dei ricercatori.

We propose a Bayesian panel model for mixed frequency data, where parameters can change over time according to a Markov process. Our model allows for both structural instability and random effects. To estimate the model, we develop a Markov Chain Monte Carlo algorithm for sampling from the joint posterior distribution, and we assess its performance in simulation experiments. We use the model to study the effects of macroeconomic uncertainty and financial uncertainty on a set of variables in a multi-country context including the US, several European countries and Japan. We find that the long-run dynamic effects are larger for changes in financial uncertainty than macroeconomic uncertainty. Furthermore, we show that the effects of uncertainty differ whether the economy is in a contraction regime or in an expansion regime.

We find that there are large differences in the effects of uncertainty in the contraction regime and the expansion regime. The use of mixed frequency data amplifies the relevance of the asymmetry. Financial uncertainty plays a more important role than macroeconomic uncertainty, and its effects are also more homogeneous across variables and countries. Disregarding either the mixed-frequency component or the Markov-switching mechanism can bring to substantially different results.
