We provide closed-form solutions for inflation and GDP dynamics in multi-sector New Keynesian economies with arbitrary input-output linkages. In particular, we show that a sufficient statistic for dynamics of sectoral prices is the principal square root of the Leontief matrix that is...

We derive closed-form solutions and sufficient statistics for inflation and GDP dynamics in multi-sector New Keynesian economies with arbitrary input-output linkages. Analytically, we decompose how production linkages (1) amplify the persistence of inflation and GDP responses to monetary and...

This paper provides an updated overview of the network of Belgian business-to-business transactions from 2002 to 2021, building on the previous vintage of the dataset which covered 2002-2014. Leveraging data from VAT client lists, we establish a comprehensive and cohesive database detailing the...

In this paper, we present new referential statistics for supply chain exposure to concentration risk of global production networks. The study’s net contribution rests on the development of a metric that indicates exposure risk in terms of the frequency of supply chain engagement with the...

This paper shows that large economic downturns may result from the propagation of micro-economic shocks over the input-output linkages across different firms or sectors within the economy. Building on the framework of Acemoglu et al. (2012), we argue that the economy's input-output structure can...

Data, without a model, are just numbers. The analysis of networks in economics should take into account how economic agents react to exogenous shocks. In order to determine the centrality of a node in the global input-output network, we analyze the network through the lenses of an economic model...

We describe portions of the U.S input-output tables through the tools of networks analysis - focusing on either energy intensive industries or those that are part of the separate and distinct energy sector. We first represent both energy intensive and energy sector industries visually through...
