(4) Spreadsheet for analysis of systematic uncertainty
Vista Analyse has developed a simple macroeconomic model, which can be used to simulate the effects of productivity shocks on beta values and interest rates. This allows us to study the correlation between the return on the national wealth and the return on its sub components. See also Concept Report No. 32 for key results.
