We develop a new method to measure economic policy uncertainty and test its dynamic relationship with output, investment, and employment. Microsoft Word - SIEPR Working Paper Cover v8 1column.docx This is defined using the frequency of the word “uncertainty” in the quarterly Economist Intelligence Unit country reports. Moreover, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused chaos and continued uncertainty for the global economy. ... and deepened our connections with Stanford HAI. The dataset includes the World Uncertainty Index (WUI) at the global level, as well as by income, region, and country levels. May 30, 2019 (Preliminary) We construct a new index of uncertainty—the World Uncertainty Index (WUI)—for 143 individual countries on a quarterly basis from 1996 onward, ands for 34 large advanced and emerging market economies from 1955. This is (a simplistic and preliminary formulation of) the quantum mechanical uncertainty principle for position and momentum.

This workshop focused on “Uncertainty in AI Situations” asks researchers to consider what an AI can do when faced with uncertainty. This effect varies across countries and across sectors within the same country: across countries, the effect is larger and more persistent in those with lower institutional quality; across sectors, the effect is stronger in those more financially-constrained. The level of uncertainty is significantly higher in developing countries and is positively associated with economic policy uncertainty and stock market volatility, and negatively with GDP growth. These indexes—developed by Hites Ahir (International Monetary Fund), Nicholas Bloom (Stanford University), and Davide Furceri (International Monetary Fund)—determine uncertainty using the frequency of the … Nicholas (Nick) Bloom is the William Eberle Professor of Economics at Stanford University, a Senior Fellow of SIEPR, and the Co-Director of the Productivity, Innovation and Entrepreneurship programme at the National Bureau of Economic Research.
