MIRAGRODEP MODEL

Last Updated: 25 Jan, 2013
Family: multi-country computable general equilibrium model
Spatial Extent: global

MIRAGRODEP is a dynamic multi-country, multi-sector general equilibrium model. The dynamics is recursive and the model is calibrated on the GTAP database. MIRAGRODEP is a new version of the MIRAGE model of the world economy, whose GAMS code has been simplified and presented in a more compact and user-friendly way.

GTAP Model

Last Updated: 7 Jul, 2003
Family: multi-country computable general equilibrium model
Spatial Extent: global

The standard GTAP Model is a multiregion, multisector, computable general equilibrium model with perfect competition and constant returns to scale. Innovative aspects of this model include: (i) the treatment of private household preferences using the non-homothetic CDE functional form and (ii) the explicit treatment of international trade and transport margins. Bilateral trade is handled via the Armington assumption. A global banking sector intermediates between global savings and consumption.

MIRAGE Model

Last Updated: 1 Jan, 2007
Family: multi-country computable general equilibrium model
Spatial Extent: global

MIRAGE is a multisector, multiregion CGE model that operates in a sequential dynamic recursive set-up.
