We introduce demographic shocks in a multi-sector endogenous growth model, a-la Uzawa-Lucas. We show that an analytical solution of the stochastic problem can be found, under the restriction that the capital share equals both the inverse of the intertemporal elasticity of substitution and the...

Properties of dynamic stochastic general equilibrium models can be revealed by either using numerical solutions or qualitative analysis. Very precise and intuition-building results are obtained by working with models which provide closed-form solutions. Closed-form solutions are known for a...

This article addresses to the appropriate modeling of loss given default (LGD) for the retail business sector. We assume small or mid-size loans that are assigned in a standardized way and collateralized by residential or commercial property. The focus on this specific type of loans entails two...
