본고(本稿)는 Sims가 개발한 방법을 이용하여 우리나라와 같이 경제구조(經濟構造)가 급히 변하는 상황에서의 경제예측(經濟豫測)의 정확도(正確度)를 제고하고자 하는 시도의 일환이다. 본고(本稿)는 예측자의 사전신뢰(事前信賴)를 이용하여 계수의 값에 대하여 사전제약(事前制約)을 부과(賦課)하고 시간변동(時間變動)을 허용하는 변동계수(變動係數)벡타자귀(自歸)(TBVAR)모형(模型)의 추정방법뿐만 아니라 사전제약(事前制約)의 모수(母數)를 선택하는 방법과 오차(誤差)의 분산(分散)이 자기회귀(自己回歸)할 경우의 대처방법 등 예측(豫測)의 정확도(正確度)를 제고시키는 데 실제 사용되는 방법을 설명하고, 6변수모형(變數模型)을 이용하여 TBVAR 모델의 정확도(正確度)를 타(他) 모델과 비교한다. 정부건설(政府建設), 총통화(總通貨), 사채시장이자율(社債市場利子率), 민간건설(民間建設), 실질(實質)GNP 및 소비자(消費者) 물가지수(物價指數) 등 6변수(變數)에 대한 예측의 정확도를 "타일 U"값을 기준으로 비교할 때 TBVAR은 시간변동(時間變動)을 고려하지 않고 사전제약(事前制約)만 적용한 BVAR이나 사전제약(事前制約)도 적용하지 않은 VAR보다 대부분의 변수의 예측에 있어 더 정확하며 민간건설(民間建設)을 제외하고는 OLS보다 예측오차(豫測誤差)가 작게 나타난다.

This study estimates connectedness index among the US, China, Europe, Japan, and South Korea using monthly economic policy uncertainty (EPU) data from January 2000 to December 2023. The connectedness index allows us to analyze the effect of global economic uncertainty on domestic economic uncertainty. The EPU is used as a proxy for economic uncertainty. Inter-country connectedness index is computed from variance decomposition. The findings from forecast error variance decomposition show that three-fourths of total uncertainty comes from economic uncertainty in the own country and one-fourth of total uncertainty comes from economic uncertainty in the others. The analysis on net pairwise connectedness reveals that, even though the extent of the effect of economic uncertainty in one country from economic uncertainty in another country varies over time, economic uncertainty in South Korea, a small-open economy, is mainly affected by economic uncertainty in the others. The reverse situation rarely happens except in the specific occurrence such as the collapse of the credit bubble in 2003 and the subsequent years, the inter-Korean summit and North Korea-the US summit in 2018, and the period from the first outbreak of COVID-19 on the implementation of the government's severe regulation against COVID-19.

This study analyzed the expected economic effects of the Korea-GCC FTA and sought strategies for industrial cooperation. To see the economic effects of Korea-GCC FTA, we analysed the effect of the oil tariff reduction of economy by Vector Autoregression(VAR) model. The estimation results shows that following the abolishment of the tariff on crude oil imports, GDP, GNI and consumption are expected to grow by 0.212%, 0.389% and 0.238%, respectively. Meanwhile, investment, export and import are estimated to drop by 0.462%, 0.413% and 0.342%, respectively. As for prices, producer prices are to rise by 6.356%p, whereas consumer prices fall by 2.996%p. In short, the Korea-GCC FTA and resultant abolishment of the tariff on crude oil imports followed by the decline in crude oil prices will result in declining prices whilst macroeconomic indices, such as GDP, GNI and consumption, will increase exerting positive effects on domestic economic growth. Also, it is necessary to proactively respond to GCC member states' industrial diversification policies for FTA-based industrial cooperation to diversify the sources of crude oil and natural gas imports for further resource risk management.
