Using the International Monetary Fund (IMF)'s global growth forecast as a working example, the paper goes through the theoretical and practical considerations of this new approach. The resulting spreadsheet, which implements the approach, is available upon request from the authors. 410 0$aIMF Working Papers; Working Paper ;$vNo. 2009/178 606 $aEconomic forecasting$xEconometric models 606 $aTime-series analysis 606 $aInflation$2imf 606 $aInvestments: Options$2imf 606 $aMacroeconomics$2imf 606 $aEnergy: Demand and Supply$2imf 606 $aPrices$2imf 606 $aPrice Level$2imf 606 $aDeflation$2imf 606 $aForecasting and Simulation: Models and Applications$2imf 606 $aPension Funds$2imf 606 $aNon-bank Financial Institutions$2imf 606 $aFinancial Instruments$2imf 606 $aInstitutional Investors$2imf 606 $aEconomic Forecasting$2imf 606 $aFinance$2imf 606 $aOil prices$2imf 606 $aAsset prices$2imf 606 $aGDP forecasting$2imf 606 $aOptions$2imf 606 $aNational income$2imf 606 $aDerivative securities$2imf 607 $aUnited States$2imf 615 0$aEconomic forecasting$xEconometric models. 615 0$aTime-series analysis. 615 7$aInflation 615 7$aInvestments: Options 615 7$aMacroeconomics 615 7$aEnergy: Demand and Supply 615 7$aPrices 615 7$aPrice Level 615 7$aDeflation 615 7$aForecasting and Simulation: Models and Applications 615 7$aPension Funds 615 7$aNon-bank Financial Institutions 615 7$aFinancial Instruments 615 7$aInstitutional Investors 615 7$aEconomic Forecasting 615 7$aFinance 615 7$aOil prices 615 7$aAsset prices 615 7$aGDP forecasting 615 7$aOptions 615 7$aNational income 615 7$aDerivative securities 676 $a336.54 712 02$aInternational Monetary Fund.$bResearch Dept. 801 0$bDcWaIMF 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910788228603321 996 $aIncorporating Market Information into the Construction of the Fan Chart$93741590 997 $aUNINA
