Interest rate hysteresis in macroeconomic investment under uncertainty
Belke, Ansgar; Göcke, Matthias - 2019
The interest rate is generally considered as an important driver of macroeconomic investment.

Dynamic efficiency and pareto optimality in a stochastic OLG model with production and social security
Barbie, Martin; Hagedorn, Marcus; Kaul, Ashok - 2000
We analyze the interaction between risk sharing and capital accumulation in a stochastic OLG model with production. We give a complete characterization of interim Pareto optimality. Our characterization also subsumes equilibria with a PAYG social security system. In a competitive equilibrium...
