We consider a Ramsey model with heterogeneous agents and borrow- ing constraint. Heterogeneity across agents stems from di¤erent initial capital endowment, labor supply, felicity function and discount rate. For simplicity, heterogeneity is reduced to only two groups of agents where they are...

This chapter studies the e¤ect of consumption externalities on stability properties of a Ramsey model with heterogeneous agents and borrowing constraints. Agents di¤er in their initial wealth, felicity functions and discount factors. For simplicity, heterogeneity is reduced to two groups....

This paper studies the e¤ect of consumption externalities in a Ramsey model with heterogeneous agents and borrowing constraints. We consider two types of agents who di¤er in their initial wealth and discount factors. Further, we leave open the possibility of increase in consumption of one...
