Abstract
This paper develops an indirect inference (Gourieroux et al., 1993; Smith, 1993) estimation method for a large class of dynamic equilibria. Our approach consists of constructing econometrically tractable auxiliary equilibria, obtained by simplifying the economic primitives of the structural equilibrium model, via which estimation can proceed. We use this approach to develop an accurate estimator for the long-run risk model of Bansal and Yaron (2004). We demonstrate the method in Monte Carlo simulations and implement it on U.S. data. We also illustrate the good performance of the proposed methodology on an equilibrium model with investor learning.
