Dear Tom,

The panel Markov-Switching VAR I am looking for is used in the following article:

Billio, Monica, Casarin, Roberto, Ravazzolo, Francesco, & Van Dijk, Herman K. (2014). "Interactions between eurozone and US booms and busts: A Bayesian panel Markov-switching VAR model". working paper Norges Bank Research.

Most of that is putting together standard sampling methods for switching multivariate regressions. However, I don't really understand what they're doing with the switching probabilities.
