A general-equilibrium asset-pricing approach to the measurement of nominal and real bank output

Wang, J. Christina (contributor); Basu, Susanto (contributor) - 2004 - This version: October 15, 2004

This paper addresses the proper measurement of financial service output that is not priced explicitly. It shows how to impute nominal service output from financial intermediaries' interest income and how to construct price indices for those financial services. We present an optimizing model with...

Not so fast : high-frequency financial data for macroeconomic event studies

Ozdagli, Ali - 2013

Over the last decade, it has become increasingly popular to use event studies with intraday asset pricing data to study the effect of macroeconomic events on the economy. The proponents of this approach argue that asset prices react to macroeconomic events very quickly and that if we know the...

Technological progress, the "User Cost of Money," and the real output of banks

Basu, Susanto; Wang, J. Christina - 2013 - This version: December 31, 2013

Financial institutions provide their customers a variety of unpriced services and cover their costs through interest margins - the interest rates they receive on assets are generally higher than the rates they pay on liabilities. In particular, banks pay below-public-market interest rates on...

Monetary shocks and stock returns : identification through the impossible trinity

Ozdagli, Ali; Yu, Yifan - 2012

This paper attempts to identify how monetary policy shocks affect stock prices by using Mundell and Fleming's theory of … the "Impossible Trinity". According to this theory, it is impossible to simultaneously have a fixed exchange rate, free … this theory because the HK dollar has been pegged to the U.S. dollar since 1983 and Hong Kong does not impose any capital …

Uncertainty shocks in a model of effective demand

Basu, Susanto; Bundick, Brent - 2012

This paper examines the role of uncertainty shocks in a one-sector, representative-agent dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model. When prices are flexible, uncertainty shocks are not capable of producing business cycle comovements among key macro variables. With countercyclical markups...

The distress premium puzzle

Ozdagli, Ali - 2010

Fama and French (1992) suggest that the positive value premium results from risk of financial distress. However, recent empirical research has found that financially distressed firms have lower stock returns, using empirical estimates of default probabilities. This paper reconciles the positive...

Productivity, welfare, and reallocation : theory and firm-level evidence

Basu, Susanto; Pascali, Luigi; Schiantarelli, Fabio; … - 2009

We prove that the change in welfare of a representative consumer is summarized by the current and expected future values of the standard Solow productivity residual. The equivalence holds if the representative household maximizes utility while taking prices parametrically. This result justifies...

The final countdown : the effect of monetary policy during "Wait-for-It" and reversal periods

Ozdagli, Ali - 2015

After a long period of loose monetary policy triggered by the Great Recession, some central banks are signaling that they will raise their policy rates soon. Previous research, for example, Bernanke and Kuttner (2005) and Ozdagli (2014), has shown that asset prices react more strongly to...

Monetary policy through production networks : evidence from the stock market

Ozdagli, Ali; Weber, Michael - 2017 - This version: October, 2017

Monetary policy shocks have a large impact on stock prices during narrow time windows centered around press releases by the FOMC. We use spatial autoregressions to decompose the overall effect of monetary policy shocks into a direct effect and a network effect. We attribute 50 to 85 percent of...

The dynamic factor network model with an application to global credit risk

Bräuning, Falk; Koopman, Siem Jan - 2016 - This version: October 31, 2016

We introduce a dynamic network model with probabilistic link functions that depend on stochastically time-varying parameters. We adopt the widely used blockmodel framework and allow the highdimensional vector of link probabilities to be a function of a low-dimensional set of dynamic factors. The...
