We analyze shocks to productivity, collateral constraint (credit shock), firm operation, and labor disutility in a model of firm dynamics with entry and exit. Shocks to firm operation and labor disutility capture COVID-19 lockdowns. Compared to the productivity shock, the credit and the lockdown...

This study represents a first attempt to empirically analyze the role of firm heterogeneity in regional business cycle behaviour. Working with monthly Italy's firms data and estimating a random effects ordered probit model, we first document sizable asymmetries in Northern and Southern firms...

In this paper we provide a new dimension to business cycle analysis, going beyond the traditional focus on the co-movements and correlations in macroeconomic aggregates. We bring to light a significant form of firm level heterogeneity over the business cycle. We analyse the responsiveness of...
