Abstract In this paper, we develop a stochastic model to analyze how financial contagion may affect economic activity. In the deterministic case, we show that, according to specific parameter values, the economy may converge either to a stress-free equilibrium or to a stressed equilibrium: in...

We formulate a notion of doubly reflected BSDE in the case where the barriers xi and zeta do not satisfy any regularity assumption. Under a technical assumption (a Mokobodzki-type condition), we show existence and uniqueness of the solution. In the case where xi is right upper-semicontinuous and...
