Abstract
This paper presents the main characteristics of the first version of a
quarterly 12 sector macroeconomic model of the Norwegian economy. The
general purpose of the project is to obtain a framework for quantitative
analysis of the short-term development of the economy. Quarterly national
accounts data constitute a main data source, but short term statistics
outside the national accounting system alsci play a significant role in the
model structure. We present the model's main structure and basic
theoretical properties, report selected estimation results for single
equations, and give some experiences from simulation experiments performed
on selected model blocks and by means of the complete model.
