Conclusion

Methodological contribution:• Introduced quantile VAR• Showed how to do forecasting with quantile regression• Quantile forecasting <-> Stress testing

Empirical findings:• Strong macro-financial linkages in the euro area• Macro-financial linkages are activated under stress• Standard OLS VAR misses most of the action
