We consider an environment where the general equilibrium assumption that every agent buys and sells simultaneously is relaxed. We show that fiat money can implement a Pareto optimal allocation only if taxes are type-specific. We then consider intermediated money by assuming that financial...

Using the monetary model developed in Sissoko (2007), where the general equilibrium assumption that every agent buys and sells simultaneously is relaxed, we observe that in this environment fiat money can implement a Pareto optimum only if taxes are type-specific. We then consider intermediated...

In a world where the means of exchange is convertible into the numeraire consumption good at a fixed rate, no one wants to hold money over time - and due to convertibility there is no means by which the Friedman rule can generate deflation. This is the environment we study in this paper in order...

This paper uses a new monetarist framework to present and explain the basic elements of a non-monetarist theory of money, classical banking theory, by modeling acceptance banking, the form of banking that was dominant during the 19th century when the theory was developed. The most important...
