Keynesian model. Relative to Representative Agent (RANK) models, our framework introduces a precautionary-savings channel, as … households in both countries face uninsurable income risk, and a real-income channel, as households have heterogeneous marginal … propensities to consume (MPC). While both channels amplify the size of spillovers/spillbacks, only precautionary savings can change …

This paper provides an analytically tractable theoretical framework to study the optimal supply of central bank reserves when the demand for reserves is uncertain and nonlinear. We fully characterize the optimal supply of central bank reserves and associated market equilibrium. We find that the...

We develop a model in which financial intermediaries hold liquidity to protect themselves from shocks. Depending on parameter values, banks may choose to hold too much or too little liquidity on aggregate compared with the socially optimal amount. The model endogenously generates a situation of...

This paper explores the role of capital flows and exchange rate dynamics in shaping the global economy's adjustment in a liquidity trap. Using a multi-country model with nominal rigidities, we shed light on the global adjustment since the Great Recession, a period when many advanced economies...
