Gottfries, Nils; Stadin, Karolina - 2019
According to search-matching theory, the Beveridge curve slopes downward because vacancies are filled more quickly when unemployment is high. Using monthly panel data for local labour markets in Sweden we find no (or only weak) evidence that high unemployment makes it easier to fill vacancies....

Boeck, Maximilian; Crespo Cuaresma, Jesús; Glocker, … - 2022
We study empirically how various labor market institutions - (i) union density, (ii) unemployment benefit remuneration, and (iii) employment protection - shape fiscal multipliers and output volatility. Our theoretical model highlights that more stringent labor market institutions attenuate both...

Endogenous systemic liquidity risk
Cao, Jin; Illing, Gerhard - 2009
Traditionally, aggregate liquidity shocks are modelled as exogenous events.

We analyse the feedback … between lender of last resort policy and incentives of private banks, determining the aggregate amount of liquidity available …
