Description: Estimation of Bayesian Global Vector Autoregressions
        (BGVAR) with different prior setups and the possibility to
        introduce stochastic volatility. Built-in priors include the
        Minnesota, the stochastic search variable selection and
        Normal-Gamma (NG) prior. For a reference see also Crespo
        Cuaresma, J., Feldkircher, M. and F. Huber (2016) "Forecasting
        with Global Vector Autoregressive Models: a Bayesian Approach",
        Journal of Applied Econometrics, Vol. 31(7), pp. 1371-1391
        <doi:10.1002/jae.2504>. Post-processing functions allow for
        doing predictions, structurally identify the model with
        short-run or sign-restrictions and compute impulse response
        functions, historical decompositions and forecast error
        variance decompositions. Plotting functions are also available.
        The package has a companion paper: Boeck, M., Feldkircher, M.
        and F. Huber (2022) "BGVAR: Bayesian Global Vector
        Autoregressions with Shrinkage Priors in R", Journal of
        Statistical Software, Vol. 104(9), pp. 1-28
