The External Finance Premium and the Macroeconomy: US post-WWII Evidence
- Journal of Economic Dynamics and Control
"... This paper embeds the
nancial accelerator into a medium-scale DSGE model and esti-mates it using Bayesian methods. Incorporation of
nancial frictions enhances the models description of the main macroeconomic aggregates. The

nance compares well to observable proxies of the premium, such as the high-yield spread. Fluctuations in the external
nance premium are primarily driven by investment supply and monetary policy shocks. In terms of recession prediction
On the hidden links between �nancing costs and international trade patterns
, 2004
"... This paper investigates whether there is a link between �nancing costs and international trade patterns, and if so, whether this link is determined by the strength of trade and �nancial networks between trading partners. The potential importance of these considerations stems from the fact that appro ..."

that approximately half of world trade is conducted on credit; a supplier gives to its foreign buyer a trade-�nancing loan �nanced by commercial banks on both sides of the transaction. For buyers, especially in developing countries, trade-�nancing loans from foreign suppliers are an essential source of external

Housing, Credit Market Imperfections, and the Business Cycle

"... We study the role of residential housing in
nancing capital investment in a quanti-tative dynamic stochastic general equilibrium framework. Residential housing, though nonproductive, is shown to be important in determining the cost of external

Demand Uncertainty, External Finance and the Business Cycles.¤

A dynamic general equilibrium model where the only source of economic ‡uctuations comes from the demand side generates macroe-conomic series consistent with the empirical evidences for the US
