Economists typically make simplifying assumptions to make the solution and estimation of their highly complex models feasible. These simplifications include approximating the true nonlinear dynamics of the model, disregarding aggregate uncertainty or assuming that all agents are identical. While...

Doctoral supervision is becoming an important challenge for many institutions delivering management education at the doctoral level. The emergence of a global market for recruiting of Faculty members makes the quality of doctoral education and doctoral supervision in Management and Business...

We build a tractable two-agent New Keynesian (TANK) model to jointly study four types of policy: conventional monetary policy, quantitative easing (QE), government expenditures, and lump-sum transfers. We find QE, transfers, and government spending can have the same effects on the aggregate...

We propose a simple explanation for the long-run decline in the startup rate. It was caused by a slowdown in labor supply growth since the late 1970s, largely pre-determined by demographics. This channel explains roughly two-thirds of the decline and why incumbent firm survival and average...
