Distributional effects of monetary policy in emerging market economies

Prasad, Eswar S.; Zhang, Boyang - 2015

We develop a two-sector, heterogeneous-agent model with incomplete financial markets to study the distributional effects and aggregate welfare implications of alternative monetary policy rules in emerging market economies. Relative to inflation targeting, exchange rate management benefits...

Uncertainty and the politics of employment protection

Vindigni, Andrea (contributor) - 2008

This paper investigates the role that idiosyncratic uncertainty plays in shaping social preferences over the degree of labor market flexibility, in a general equilibrium model of dynamic labor demand where the productivity of firms evolves over time as a Geometric Brownian motion. A key result...

The impacts of the dollar-renminbi exchange rate misalignment on the China-United States commodity trade : an asymmetric analysis

Ferjani, Sabrine; Saafi, Sami; Nouira, Ridha; Rault, … - 2022

Contrary to most existing studies of the literature that assumed that the effects of real exchange rate (RE) misalignment on trade flows are symmetric, this paper considers a more general and realistic framework allowing for possible asymmetric effects. We use monthly time-series data over the...

On the exchange rate and economic policy uncertainty nexus: a panel VAR approach for emerging markets

Abid, Abir; Rault, Christophe - 2020

We examine the Exchange Rate Volatility (ERV) response to the Economic Policy Uncertainty (EPU) shocks from a panel VAR perspective used for the first time in this context. Focusing on Emerging Market Economies (EME), our noteworthy findings postulate that (a) both home and foreign EPU shocks...

Would a Euro's depreciation improve the French economy?

Magnani, Riccardo; Piccoli, Luca; Carré, Martine; … - 2017

In this paper, we use a Micro-Macro model to evaluate the effects of a euro's depreciation on the French economy, both at the macro and micro level. Our Micro-Macro model consists of a Microsimulation model that includes an arithmetical model for the French fiscal system and two behavioral...

The pass-through of exchange rate in the context of the European sovereign debt crisis

Cheikh, Nidhaleddine Ben; Rault, Christophe - 2015

This paper investigates whether exchange rate pass-through (ERPT) into import prices is a nonlinear phenomenon for five heavily indebted Euro area countries, namely the so-called GIIPS group (Greece, Ireland, Italy, Portugal, and Spain). Using logistic smooth transition models, we explore the...

The identification and economic content of ordered choice models with stochastic thresholds

Cunha, Flávio (contributor); Heckman, James J. (contributor) - 2007

This paper extends the widely used ordered choice model by introducing stochastic thresholds and interval-specific outcomes. The model can be interpreted as a generalization of the GAFT (MPH) framework for discrete duration data that jointly models durations and outcomes associated with...

Testing for restricted stochastic dominance

Davidson, Russell (contributor); … - 2006

Asymptotic and bootstrap tests are studied for testing whether there is a relation of stochastic dominance between two distributions. These tests have a null hypothesis of nondominance, with the advantage that, if this null is rejected, then all that is left is dominance. This also leads us to...

Searching for rehabilitation in nonparametric regression models with exogenous treatment assignment

Henderson, Daniel J.; Maasoumi, Esfandiar - 2012

This paper offers some new directions in the analysis of nonparamertric models with exogenous treatment assignment. The nonparametric approach opens the door to the examination of potentially different distributed outcomes. When combined with cross-validation, it also identifies potentially...
