  • Description: This paper presents the European Commission's Global Multi-country model (the GM model). The GM model is an estimated multi-country DSGE model that can be used for spillover analysis, forecasting and medium term projections. Its development is jointly performed by the Joint Research Centre and DG ECFIN. Since the GM model is developed to be flexible under different country configurations, we present the GM model in its configuration designed for EMU-countries (GM3- EMU), which has been estimated for the four largest European economies (Germany, France, Italy and Spain). We analyse business cycle properties, present the model fit and provide a quantitative assessment of the relative importance that supply, demand, and international shocks, as well as, discretionary policy interventions had in explaining the cyclical patterns observed in each country since the establishment of the EMU. We also discuss the main issues related to fitting observed data, and the associated modelling and estimation approaches that we applied so far and the main lines of development that are in place to further tackle such issues.
