Global Forecasting School's Advanced Macroeconomic Modeling Series in DynareJulia

​

Introduction:

At the Global Forecasting School (GFS), a passion for macroeconomics meets an unparalleled learning experience. Here, students master in advanced macroeconomic analysis, exploring sophisticated forecasting models and comprehensive policy analysis methods.

​

Among the cutting-edge tools we use is DynareJulia, a version of Dynare developed in Julia. This innovative platform is poised to be the future of macroeconomic modeling. Already, institutions like the Central Bank of Armenia are implementing DynareJulia in their forecasting and policy analysis systems. It's become an inseparable part of FPAS Mark II. 

 

DynareJulia project is led by Michel Juillard. The project is constantly evolving, with new tools being added and tested regularly.
