I identify new patterns in countries' economic performance over the 2007-2014 period based on proximity through distance, trade, and finance to the US subprime mortgage and Eurozone debt crisis areas. To understand the causes of the cross-country variation, I develop an open economy model with...

We add agency costs as in Carlstrom and Fuerst (1997) into a two-country, two-good international business-cycle model. In our model, changes in the relative price of investment arise endogenously. Despite the fact that technology shocks are uncorrelated across countries, the relative price of...

beyond as a global phenomenon. Some have argued that this global recession has a common source: the U.S. financial crisis …, whereas the resulting recession in the economy of its trading partner is quantitatively minor. Transmission through goods … trade is limited by the calibrated average trade share, which we find insufficient to deliver a sizable recession abroad …

Empirical evidence demonstrates that credit standards, including lending margins and collateral requirements, move in a countercyclical direction. In this study, we construct a small open economy model with financial frictions to generate the countercyclical movement in credit standards. Our...

What are the long-run aggregate effects of monetary shocks displaying throughthe credit channel of monetary policy? We address this question by investigatingthe transmission mechanism and estimating the dynamic behaviour of variablesrelated to credit and innovation. Then, we develop a DSGE model...

This paper studies the long-run evolution of bank risk and its links to the macroeconomy. Using data for 17 advanced economies, we show that the riskiness of bank assets declined materially between 1870 and 2016. But even though bank assets have become safer, the losses on these assets are...

In this paper, we aim to compare the anatomy of the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak and the Great Financial Crisis (GFC) in the context of an emerging market economy. To this end, we develop a small open economy DSGE model with the Bernanke-Gertler-Gilchrist financial accelerator that features...
