In this paper is presented a simultaneous equation model that is non-triangular, its disturbances having a non-diagonal covariance matrix, and yet is causal and recursive, and whose underlying structural relations are also causal. The model is put forth as a counter-example to the Wold-Strotz claim that only triangular systems can be recursive and causal.
