In this paper we present a large scale computable general equilibrium model derived from GEM-E3 model for European Union with three geographical areas and 18 different sectors. We do simulations with GAMS-PATH software algorithm which is based on mix complementarity (FOC and shadow prices). This...

Czech Republic, Hungary and Poland will have to join the European and Monetary Union. Surprisingly, there is very little work on the welfare consequences of the loss of monetary policy flexibility for these countries. This paper fills this void by providing a framework to evaluate quantitatively...

We introduce a ''new'' algorithm that can be used to solve stochastic dynamic general equilibrium models. This approach exploits the fact that the equations defining equilibrium can be viewed as set of algebraic equations in the neighborhood of the steady-state. Then a recursive scheme, which...

Computing equilibria in dynamic economies is still quite challenging even though the noticeable increase in computing power, storage capacity and new approaches in the literature on computational economics. The solvability of many economic models suffers from the curse of dimensionality, which...

This paper extends the well known Capital Asset Pricing Model by Sharpe and Lintner to a multi-period context with possibly price dependent preferences. The model is built from individual forward looking agents adopting a portfolio selection scheme similar to the portfolio selection theory...

On the one hand, recently a number of theoretical models have highlighted the role of credit market frictions in propagating and amplifying macroeconomic shocks. On the other hand, it still seems an open question whether this role is quantitatively significant. Our paper tries to fill this gap....

This paper analyses the pension system in Turkey using Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) and Overlapping Generations Models (OLG). The objective of the paper is to evaluate the effects of current pension policies on the macroeconomic aggregates when a segmented and asymmetric labor market is...

The paper analyzes a heterogeneous agents macro model in which large fortunes are created through entrepreneurial behavior. Special attention is given to the saving behavior of the very wealthy families. It is a prominent puzzle in consumption theory that the very rich save more than what one...
