We propose a modelling approach involving a series of small-scale factor models. They are connected to each other within a
cluster, whose linkages are derived from Granger-causality tests. GDP forecasts are established across the production, income
and expenditure accounts within a disaggregated approach. This method merges the benefits of large-scale macroeconomic and
small-scale factor models, rendering our Cluster of Dynamic Factor Models (CDFM) useful for model-consistent forecasting on
a large scale. While the CDFM has a simple structure, its forecasts outperform those of a wide range of competing models and
of professional forecasters. Moreover, the CDFM allows forecasters to introduce their own judgment and hence produce conditional
forecasts.
