This joint research workshop aimed to discuss current methods and key problems in the estimation of dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) models of the macroeconomy that are the “workhorse” at present at both academic and policymaking institutions. We intended to revisit the main issues in light of the frontier of research in this field from a theoretical/macroeconomic as well as an econometric/statistical perspective.
