Solving Heterogeneous-Agent Models with Parameterized Cross-Sectional Distributions

Algan, Yann; Allais, Olivier; Den Haan, Wouter - C.E.P.R. Discussion Papers - 2007

disadvantages of the prevailing algorithm that strongly relies on simulation techniques and is easier to implement than existing … possible to avoid Monte Carlo integration. The paper also develops a new simulation procedure that not only avoids cross … finite number of agents. This procedure can help to improve the efficiency of the most popular algorithm in which simulation …

Bank Networks: Contagion, Systemic Risk and Prudential Policy

Aldasoro, Iñaki; Delli Gatti, Domenico; Faia, Ester - C.E.P.R. Discussion Papers - 2015

We present a network model of the interbank market in which optimizing risk averse banks lend to each other and invest in non-liquid assets. Market clearing takes place through a tâtonnement process which yields the equilibrium price, while traded quantities are determined by means of a...

Finite State Dynamic Games with Asymmetric Information: A Framework for Applied Work

Fershtman, Chaim; Pakes, Ariel - C.E.P.R. Discussion Papers - 2009

With applied work in mind, we define an equilibrium notion for dynamic games with asymmetric information which does not require a specification for players' beliefs about their opponent types. This enables us to define equilibrium conditions which, at least in principal, are testable and can be...

Constrained Monopoly Pricing with Random Participation

Basaluzzo, Gabriel; Miravete, Eugenio J - C.E.P.R. Discussion Papers - 2007

We present a flexible model of monopoly nonlinear pricing with endogenous participation decisions of heterogeneous consumers. We make use of the moments that define the few self-selecting tariff options that are commonly used to implement the optimal nonlinear tariff to estimate how demand and...

A User's Guide to Solving Dynamic Stochastic Games Using the Homotopy Method

Borkovsky, Ron N.; Doraszelski, Ulrich; Kryukov, Yaroslav - C.E.P.R. Discussion Papers - 2008

This paper provides a step-by-step guide to solving dynamic stochastic games using the homotopy method. The homotopy method facilitates exploring the equilibrium correspondence in a systematic fashion; it is especially useful in games that have multiple equilibria. We discuss the theory of the...

Incomplete-Market Equilibria Solved Recursively on an Event Tree

Dumas, Bernard J; Lyasoff, Andrew - C.E.P.R. Discussion Papers - 2009

We develop a method that allows one to compute incomplete-market equilibria routinely for Markovian equilibria (when they exist). The main difficulty to be overcome arises from the set of state variables. There are, of course, exogenous state variables driving the economy but, in an incomplete...

Comparison of Solutions to the Incomplete Markets Model with Aggregate Uncertainty

Den Haan, Wouter - C.E.P.R. Discussion Papers - 2008

This paper compares numerical solutions to the model of Krusell and Smith (1998) generated by different numerical algorithms. The algorithms have very similar implications for the correlations between different variables. Larger differences are observed for (i) the unconditional means and...

The Short-Run Dynamics of Optimal Growth Models with Delays

Collard, Fabrice; Licandro, Omar; Puch, Luis - C.E.P.R. Discussion Papers - 2005

Differential equations with advanced and delayed time arguments may arise in the optimality conditions of simple growth models with delays. Models with delayed adoption of new technologies, habit formation or learning-by-using lie in this category. In this paper we present new insight on the...

Computing DSGE Models with Recursive Preferences

Caldara, Dario; Fernández-Villaverde, Jesús; … - C.E.P.R. Discussion Papers - 2009

This paper compares different solution methods for computing the equilibrium of dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) models with recursive preferences such as those in Epstein and Zin (1989 and 1991). Models with these preferences have recently become popular, but we know little about...

Strategic Experimentation and Disruptive Technological Change

Schivardi, Fabiano; Schneider, Martin - C.E.P.R. Discussion Papers - 2005

This paper studies the diffusion of a new technology that is brought to market while its potential is still uncertain. We consider a dynamic game in which firms improve both a new and a rival old technology while learning about the relative potential of both technologies. We use the model to...
