The Consumption Discount Rate for the Distant Future (if we do not die out)

Vermeylen, Koen - 2013

Gollier and Weitzman (2010) show that if future consumption discount rates are uncertain and persistent, the consumption discount rate should decline to its lowest possible value for events in the most distant future. In this paper, I argue that the lowest possible growth rate of consumption per...

Expected net present value, expected net future value, and the Ramsey rule

Gollier, Christian - 2009

Weitzman (1998) showed that when future interest rates are uncertain, using the expected net present value implies a term structure of discount rates that is decreasing to the smallest possible interest rate. On the contrary, using the expected net future value criterion implies an increasing...

How should the distant future be discounted when discount rates are uncertain?

Gollier, Christian; Weitzman, Martin L. - 2009

It is not immediately clear how to discount distant-future events, like climate change, when the distant-future discount rate itself is uncertain. The so-called Weitzman-Gollier puzzle is the fact that two seemingly symmetric and equally plausible ways of dealing with uncertain future discount...
