In this paper, we study the existence of an intertemporal equilibrium in a Ramsey model with heterogenous discounting, elastic labor supply and borrowing constraints. Applying a fixed-point argument by Gale and Mas-Colell (1975), we prove the existence of an equilibrium in a truncated bounded...

The international asset pricing models are mostly developed in the case of parity failure (investors of di?erent countries do not agree on the expected returns on securities). In this case, an equilibrium in the international asset markets may exist, but not in the international good markets. In...

We study the impact of social capital in both simple theoretical and em- pirical model with the main assumption is the price of physical capital is a decreasing function of social capital. In our theoretical model, there exists a critical value such that ffrm will not invest in social capital if...

The international asset pricing models are mostly developed in the case of parity failure (investors of different countries do not agree on the expected returns on securities). In this case, an equilibrium in the in- ternational asset markets may exist, but not in the international good markets....

We address the fundamental issues of existence and efficiency of an equilibrium in a Ramsey model with many agents, where agents have heterogenous discounting, elastic labor supply and face borrowing con- straints. The existence of rational bubbles is also tackled. In the first part, we prove...
