It nevertheless reaffirms the unique strengths of granular approaches, particularly their ability to capture spatial heterogeneity and decompose aggregate effects. Its value lies in testing whether standard local-temperature approaches may understate aggregate damages by missing common shocks or supply chain-propagated effects. Its limitation lies in the loss of heterogeneity information, diluted within an aggregate effect, that scenario users increasingly require. Source: Edhec Business School |
