Credit and Growth under Limited Commitment
We consider a linear growth model with idiosyncratic productivity shocks in which producers cannot commit to repay their loans. Borrowing constraints are determined endogenously by the borrowers’ incentives to repay, assuming that defaulters lose a share of output and are excluded from future trade in the credit market. We characterize necessary and sufficient conditions for the enforceability ...
متن کاملCompetition, Innovation and Growth with Limited Commitment∗
We study how limited enforcement of contracts and barriers to business start-up affect the investment in knowledge capital and the adoption of new technologies. We show that barriers to business startup (limited competition) is the most important obstacle to growth. Limited enforceability of contracts is detrimental to growth only if there are barriers to business start-up. Our results are cons...

This paper studies limited commitment and adverse selection in an economy in which private liabilities (inside money) can be used as instruments of intertemporal trade. The results suggest that in conjunction with adverse selection, the limited commitment problem may affect the behavior of intrinsically higher quality debtors more severely than lower quality ones. Nonetheless, a credit economy ...
متن کاملAuctions with Limited Commitment∗
We study auction design with limited commitment in a standard auction environment. The seller has a single object and can conduct an infinite sequence of standard auctions with reserve prices to maximize her expected profit. In each period, the seller can commit to a reserve price for the current period but cannot commit to future reserve prices. We analyze the problem with limited commitment t...
متن کاملIntergenerational Transfers and Growth
This paper shows that, when the supply side dynamics is modelled along the lines suggested by the endogenous growth literature, it is possible that properly designed unfunded schemes would promote growth. The reduction in savings when an intergenerational transfer programme is introduced has a negative impact on capital accumulation and output. However, in the long run the saving rate will be g...
