Using a heterogeneous firm model with firm entry and endogenous markups, I study how the financial constraints of exporting firms affect exchange rate pass-through behaviors. I find that the financial constraints increase the degree of exchange rate pass-through.

This paper studies the dynamics of output and export margins in the aftermath of external shocks in fixed and floating exchange rate regimes. Using a panel VARX model, it traces the mean responses of output, terms of trade, extensive and intensive margins to real and nominal shocks in 22...

In the last few decades, the world economy has witnessed the expansion of trade especially in the number of exchanged varieties, the so-called "extensive margins". In a theoretical model where extensive margins in both traded and non-traded sectors are endogenously determined, it is shown that...

This paper analyzes equity and bond positions in a two-country DSGE model where the number of varieties, i.e. extensive margin is endogenously determined. Households take care about not only the price of goods but also the variety of goods they consume. The welfare-based real exchange rate...

This paper investigates a consumption-real exchange rate anomaly from the open macroeconomics literature known as the Backus-Smith puzzle. We both analytically and quantitatively examine how an expansion of trade along extensive margins can contribute to the puzzle's resolution. Our argument is...

This paper studies how labor market frictions affect the consequences of trade integration in a two-country dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model with heterogeneous firms and endogenous producer entry. Two main results emerge. First, trade integration is beneficial for welfare by inducing...

In the last few decades, the world economy has witnessed the expansion of trade, especially in the number of exchanged varieties, the so-called “extensive margins”. In a theoretical model where extensive margins in both tradable and non-tradable sectors are endogenously determined, it is...

We combine the real business cycle small open economy framework with the endogenous growth literature to study the productivity cost of a sudden stop. In this economy, productivity growth is determined by successful implementation of business ideas, yet the quality of ideas is heterogeneous and...
