Modelling the relationship between inflation and uncertainty with existence of structural break: evidence from Azerbaijan by Vugar RAHIMOV

“…I construct an appropriate autoregressive model using the structural break dummy variable. To obtain inflation uncertainty, I estimate an autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (ARCH) model and generate conditional variance used as a proxy for the uncertainty. …”
