Σύνοψη	The Time-Varying Parameter Structural VAR (TVP-SVAR) model extends classical structural VARs by allowing both the reduced-form coefficients and the structural impact matrix to evolve continuously over time. Estimated via Bayesian MCMC, it captures shifting transmission mechanisms and heteroscedastic volatility — making it the workhorse for empirical macroeconomics when policy regimes and economic relationships change.	The Bayesian Vector Autoregression (BVAR) model extends the classical VAR framework by incorporating prior beliefs about the model coefficients. Priors — most commonly the Minnesota prior — shrink VAR coefficients toward economically sensible values, dramatically reducing overfitting and improving out-of-sample forecast accuracy even when the number of variables is large.
