Model with Many Leads and Lags: BK Condition Not Satisfied

Postby koyukiko » Fri Apr 28, 2017 8:30 pm

I am new to Dynare and currently working on a model with many leads and lags. When I tried to solve my model using Dynare, I got the following error message. After using the model_diagnostics command, it seems that I have one colinear relationship in my model, but because of the auxiliary variables generated by Dynare I couldn't figure out what would be the exact problem. So I was wondering if someone could help me to check. Many thanks in advance.

Re: Model with Many Leads and Lags: BK Condition Not Satisfi

As your model features several unit roots, these will always trigger a collinearity warning. With a complex model like this, there is only the standard advice. Simplify your model as far as possible to find out where the problem is coming from. For example, use fewer leads and lags. They are often not needed in the most parsimonious version of a model.
