Abstract
AbstractThis paper compares the properties of a structural model—the London Business School model of the U.K. economy—with a time series model. Information provided by this type of comparison is a useful diagnostic tool for detecting types of model misspecification. This is a more meaningful way of proceeding rather than attempting to establish the superiority of one type of model over another. In lieu of a better structural model, the effects of inappropriate dynamic specification can be reduced by combining the forecasts of both the structural and time series models. For many variables considered here these provide more accurate forecasts than each of the model types alone.
