This paper proposes a theoretical growth model where seigniorage can be used to finance productive public spending, and show the existence of nonlinear effects between seigniorage and economic growth. Empirical evidence based on panel regression techniques provides some support for these...

Most of countries covered by natural forests are developing countries, with limited ability to levy taxes and restrained access to international credit markets; consequently, they are amenable to draw heavily on two sources of government financing, namely seigniorage and deforestation revenues....

The forest covers an important share of land area in many developing countries and represents an important source of revenue for governments. The other major contribution to government revenues in developing countries comes from printing money, namely the seigniorage. Using a simple theoretical...

We extend the [Barro, R., 1990. Government spending in a simple model of economic growth. Journal of Political Economy 98, 103-125] model to money financing of public expenditures, in a setup where money demand is motivated by a "transaction cost" technology, exhibiting the "cash-in-advance"...

In this paper we look for long-run effects of public deficits on economic growth in an endogenous growth model with public investment, which may be financed by taxes, deficits and debt. We focus on the long-run and study the way persistent (long-term) deficits influence economic growth. We show...

Dans cet article, nous proposons un modèle théorique simple dans lequel l’impact du déficit budgétaire sur les dépenses publiques d’investissement dépend du niveau de dette publique (en pourcentage du PIB). Lorsque la dette publique est faible, l’impact du déficit est positif, car...
