Like ripples on a pond: behavioral spillovers and their implications for research and policy
Dolan, Paul; Galizzi, Matteo M. - London School of Economics (LSE) - 2015
No behavior sits in a vacuum, and one behavior can greatly affect what happens next. We propose a conceptual frame within which a broad range of behavioral spillovers can be accounted for when applying behavioral science to policy challenges. We consider behaviors which take place sequentially...

A time series analysis of financial fragility in the UK banking system
Goodhart, Charles; Sunirand, Pojanart; Tsomocos, … - London School of Economics (LSE) - 2004
This paper extends the model proposed by Goodhart, Sunirand, and Tsomocos (2003, 2004a, b) to an infinite horizon setting. Thus, we are able to assess how the model conforms with the time series data of the U.K. banking system. We conclude that, since the model performs satisfactorily, it can be...

A risk assessment model for banks
Goodhart, Charles; Sunirand, Pojanart; Tsomocos, … - London School of Economics (LSE) - 2004
The objective of this paper is to propose a model to assess risk for banks. Its main innovation is to incorporate … endogenous interaction between banks, recognising that the actual risk to which an individual bank is exposed also depends on its … data and therefore can be implemented as a risk assessment tool for financial regulators and central banks. We address the …

Towards a measure of financial fragility
Aspachs, Oriol; Goodhart, Charles; Tsomocos, Dimitrios P.; … - London School of Economics (LSE) - 2006
This paper proposes a measure of financial fragility that is based on economic welfare in a general equilbrium model calibrated against UK data. The model comprises a household sector, three active heterogeneous banks, a central bank/regulator, incomplete markets, and endogenous default. We...
