Abstract

We show that linear restrictions can control which forecasts exhibit drift in a Bewley [Econ. Lett. 3 (1979) 357–361] transformation of a vector equilibrium correction (VEC) model. Controlling insignificant but numerically important drift has two benefits. First, it makes forecasts more credible. Second, it can make substantial improvements to forecast accuracy.
