Full model with vacancies observed:

full_with_vacancy.mod
full_with_vacancy_steadystate.m


Full model without vacancies observed:

full_no_vacancy.mod
full_no_vacancy_steadystate.m

The ss-files for the above two models require: 

ctw_steadystate_solvecore_10.m


Financial frictions model without search-and-matching block:

finfric158.mod
finfric158_steadystate.m
finfric_steadystatesolvecore_noDelta3.m (called by the steadystate-file)

Foreign SVAR computed/estimated separately:

foreign_svar50.mod
Its output: foreign_svar50_oo_.mat is called by all the above models as the foreign part is estimated separately.

Domestic SVAR is used in forecast comparison exercise:

lv_svar9.mod


All the above models require a data file: myOriginalData.mat
