We document majority support for policies entailing global redistribution and climate mitigation. Recent surveys on 40,680 respondents in 20 countries covering 72% of global carbon emissions show strong support for an effective and progressive way to combat climate change and poverty: a global...

In a structural dynamic model that incorporates two broad production sectors with different carbon emissions, we find that climate policy uncertainty (CPU) shocks (i) lower the market value of the highly carbon-emitting sector relative to the low carbon-emitting sector, and (ii) reduce real...

We propose and implement a method to identify shocks to transition risk, addressing key challenges regarding its … risk in the United States. These shocks have important aggregate effects, also inducing financial instability. They are …

We show that banks' risk exposure in one asset category affects how they report regulatory risk weights for another … asset category. Specifically, banks report lower credit risk weights for their loan portfolio when they face higher risk … constraints. Our results suggest the existence of incentive spillovers across different risk categories. We relate this behavior …
