A Model of Monetary Equilibrium with Random Output and Restricted Borrowing
Mierzejewski, Fernando - 2010
An alternative theoretical setting is presented to characterise the money demand and the monetary equilibrium. Two main hypotheses are stated that contradict the assumptions normally sustained by scholars and policy-makers: National output is assumed to be a random variable, and people are...

Regional Trade Agreements in East Asia: Will They Be Sustainable?
Park, Innwon - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2008
Searching for sustainable regional trade agreements (RTAs) for East Asia, we quantitatively evaluated the likely impact of proposed East Asian RTA strategies─(i) the AFTA (a being-left-alone strategy), (ii) an ASEAN Hub RTA (a hub-and-spoke type of overlapping RTA strategy), (iii) the AFTA vs...

Impact of Trade Liberalisation on Employment in Bangladesh: A Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) Analysis
Hoque, Serajul - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2005
We use a 86-industry CGE model of Bangladesh to simulate the employment effects of removing all tariffs in Bangladesh. We find that this would expand GDP and generate employment. The industries that experience the greatest positive effects on their output and employment are the export-oriented...

Analyzing Poverty Impact of Trade Liberalization Policies in CGE Models: Theory and Some Policy Experiments in Agricultural and Non-agricultural Sectors in South Asia
Khan, haider - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2008
The paper uses a dualistic, compact and “generic” (macroeconomic) computable general equilibrium (CGE) model specially constructed for the purpose of investigating the implications of trade liberalization for poverty reduction in South Asia. The model is a stylized representation of...
