Rational Expectations

Abstract

Rational expectations is an equilibrium concept that attributes a common model (a joint probability distribution over exogenous variables and outcomes) to nature and to all agents in the model. The rational expectations equilibrium concept makes parameters describing agents’ belief disappear as components of a model, giving rise to the cross-equation restrictions that offer rational expectations models their empirical power.
