assets are likely to serve as media of exchange or collateral (a definition of liquidity often employed in monetary theory …), or that they can be easily sold in a secondary market, if needed (a definition of liquidity closer to the one adopted in … finance)? We develop a model where these two notions of asset liquidity coexist, and their relative importance is determined …

We develop a dynamic general equilibrium model to analyze the optimal quantity of liquid bonds by investigating the following three questions: Under what conditions is it socially desirable to contract the bond supply, what incentive problems are mitigated by doing this, and how large are the...
