Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMonetary Policy in a Markov-Switching VECM: Implications for the Cost of Disinflation in GhanaRichard Kwabi Ayisi, Joseph AduMonetary policy assessment in Ghana has been conducted using vector auto-regression. This however, presumes stability of long run outcomes and particularly ignores monetary policy regime changes that has characterized the economy overtime. This study thus introduced the possibility of switches in the long run equilibrium in co-integrated vector auto-regression by allowing both the covariance and weighting matrix in the error-correction … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 18 Mar 2017 · 8,553 accessesView PDF Cite
