Structural VAR Modeling ======================= RISE's ``svar`` object models a (possibly Markov-switching) structural VAR -- the structural form is estimated directly, given identifying restrictions on the contemporaneous-impact matrix. It shares its data handling, estimation, forecasting and decomposition machinery with the reduced-form VAR object, so the chapter below focuses on what is specific to the structural case and otherwise points at :doc:`../ReducedFormVAR_capabilities/Main Reduced form VAR Modeling`. .. toctree:: :maxdepth: 2 Structural VARs
