Abstract
This paper presents a multivariate methodology for obtaining measures of unobserved macroeconomic variables. The used procedure is the multivariate Hodrick-Prescot which depends on smoothing parameters. The choice of these parameters is crucial. Our approach is based on consistent estimators of these parameters, depending only on the observed data.
