Permanent deterministic simulation

Hello,

I am trying to run a permanent deterministic simulation in Dynare, but I keep getting the following error message: matrix close to singular, so there is no path found by Dynare between the two steady states. The same model is working properly when doing stochastic simulation or a temporary deterministic simulation. Could you please have a look at the attached code and give me some comments?

Thank you!

Your model has a collinearity issue.
Code: Select all
model_diagnostics(M_,options_,oo_)
says
model_diagnostic: the Jacobian of the static model is singular
there is 2 colinear relationships between the variables and the equations

Thank you, I will have a look at it!
