The aim of this paper is to study asset reallocation in financial markets subject to search, bargaining, and … consequence, a positive liquidity differential between money and real assets emerges, resulting in an increased demand for fiat … money, as observed since the eruption of the global financial crisis. A policy intervention replacing information sensitive …

How should an agent (the sender) observing multi-dimensional data (the state vector) persuade another agent to take the desired action? We show that it is always optimal for the sender to perform a (non-linear) dimension reduction by projecting the state vector onto a lower-dimensional object...

This study examines monetary policy and central bank communication when a monetary instrument signals the central bank's private information. A novel feature is that the central bank ex ante determines how much information it acquires and how much of this information it releases to the public....

We study the general problem of Bayesian persuasion (optimal information design) with continuous actions and continuous state space in arbitrary dimensions. First, we show that with a finite signal space, the optimal information design is always given by a partition. Second, we take the limit of...

We study a principal--agent model. The parties are symmetrically informed at first; the principal then designs the process by which the agent learns his type and, concurrently, the screening mechanism. Because the agent can opt out of the mechanism ex post, it must leave him with nonnegative...

The matching of likes is a frequently observed phenomenon. However, for such assortative matching to arise in a search … model, often implausibly strong conditions are required. This paper shows that, once signals are introduced, a search model … of random search, which creates in effect an almost frictionless environment. Hence the unique separating equilibrium in …

When agents do not know where to find a match, they search. However, agents could direct their search to agents who … strategically choose a certain signal. Introducing cheap talk to a model of sequential search with bargaining, we find that signals …-crossing property and sorting condition coincide. As the information from signals allows agents to avoid all unnecessary search, this …
