The article highlights the existing links between the problem of econometric identification and the causality: The cross-correlation function does not characterize the instantaneous causality, consequently it can be used as a test for the exogeneity of a process only in special cases.

Abstract

The article highlights the existing links between the problem of econometric identification and the causality: The cross-correlation function does not characterize the instantaneous causality, consequently it can be used as a test for the exogeneity of a process only in special cases. The article also clarifies the sense of spectral decomposition, with respect to the definition of Granger causality, in the light of the Sims' theorems.
