We propose a new tool to filter non-linear dynamic models that does not require the researcher to specify the model fully and can be implemented without solving the model. If two conditions are satisfied, we can use a flexible statistical model and a known measurement equation to back out the...

This study explores the dynamic relationship between financial inclusion and green sustainability across 38 African countries. We constructed an environmental pollution index and a financial inclusion index covering the period 2000-2021 to account for the several dimensions within both...

I develop and analyze a monetary model with liquid equity. Equity is a claim on the profits of firms acting as sellers in the search-and-matching market. Buyers in that market devote search to obtain matches with firms, and use the equity to relax a liquidity constraint. The dual nature of...

Foreign portfolio flows constitute a key component of economic activity in small open economies such as Colombia. The dynamics of these flows are subject to the influence of both external (push) factors and domestic (pull) factors. Consequently, economic crises and episodes of financial distress...

I propose a model of the reserve currency paradigm that centers on liquidity demand for safe assets. In global recessions, the demand for U.S. safe assets increases and raises their convenience yields, giving rise to stronger dollar and countercyclical seigniorage revenues. The seigniorage...
