imfer-identification

separate

Use when the identification argument is the bottleneck for an IMF Economic Review (IMFER) manuscript — cross-country panel, high-frequency policy-surprise, crisis event study, narrative, or open-economy structural identification. Stress-tests the data-to-object mapping to IMFER's policy-relevant bar; it does not build the model (imfer-theory-model) or run the robustness suite (imfer-robustness).

When to use

• cross-country panel identification
• high-frequency policy-surprise identification
• crisis event study identification
• narrative identification
• open-economy structural identification
• defending exclusion restrictions
• handling global common shocks
• addressing cross-border spillovers

When not to use

• building the model
• running the robustness suite
