Business Cycle Effects of Credit and Technology Shocks in a DSGE Model with Firm Defaults∗

چکیده
This paper proposes a theoretical framework to analyze the impacts of credit and technology shocks on business cycle dynamics, where firms rely on banks and households for capital financing. Firms are identical ex ante but differ ex post due to different realizations of firm specific technology shocks, possibly leading to default by some firms. The paper advances a new modelling approach for the analysis of financial intermediation and firm defaults that takes account of the financial implications of such defaults for both households and banks. Results from a calibrated version of the model highlights the role of financial institutions in the transmission of credit and technology shocks to the real economy. A positive credit shock, defined as a rise in the loan to deposit ratio, increases output, consumption, hours and productivity, and reduces the spread between loan and deposit rates. The effects of the credit shock tend to be highly persistent even without price rigidities and habit persistence in consumption behaviour.

A Model of Financial Shocks at Bank and Interbank of Iran (DSGE)
This paper proposes a fully micro-founded framework that incorporates optimizing banks into a DSGE model, and evaluates the role of banks and financial shocks in the Iranian business cycles. We consider banks that offer different banking services and interact in an interbank market. Loans are produced using interbank borrowing and deposits. Banks have monopoly power, but cannot set nominal depo...
متن کاملHousehold portfolio channel of credit shocks transmission: The Case of Iran
In this study, we use a Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) model to investigate the household portfolio channel of monetary and credit shocks transmission in Iran. In this regard, we developed a canonical New Keynesian DSGE model with financial and banking sectors. The model is estimated by Bayesian method for the period 1990-2012. The result showed that the current and expected pric...

With the introduction of any given variable in random dynamic general equilibrium models, the behavioral functions of economic agents will change, and consequently the shocks to the economy show a different direction and response. One of the most important sectors in the dynamics of a countrychr('39')s economy is the housing sector and one of the main determinants of the stagnation and boom of ...

B efore the incidence of the financial crisis in 2008, the financial sector was ignored in the most of business cycles analyses.
