The Structural Dynamics of Output Growth and Inflation: Some International EvidenceFabio CanovaUniversitat Pompeu Fabra - Department of Economics and Business (DEB); University of Southampton - Division of Economics; Centre for Economic Policy Research (CEPR) Luca GambettiUniversitat Pompeu Fabra - Department of Economics and Business (DEB) Evi PappaLondon School of Economics & Political Science (LSE); Autonomous University of Barcelona - Department of Economics and Economic History October 2006 CEPR Discussion Paper No. 5878 Abstract: We examine the dynamics of output growth and inflation in the US, Euro area and UK using a structural time varying coefficient VAR. There are important similarities in structural inflation dynamics across countries; output growth dynamics differ. Swings in the magnitude of inflation and output growth volatilities and persistences are accounted for by a combination of three structural shocks. Changes over time in the structure of the economy are limited and permanent variations largely absent. Changes in the volatilities of structural shocks matter.
