Consumer preferences and the reliability of Euler equation tests of capital mobility : some simulation-based evidence

Buch, Claudia M.; Döpke, Jörg; Pierdzioch, Christian - 2002

The globalization of international financial markets has renewed interest in the measurement of capital mobility. Consumption-based tests such as the Euler equation test are commonly used. These tests, however, are derived under restrictive assumptions on consumer behavior. In this paper, we ask...
