We introduce Indirect Robust Generalized Method of Moments (IRGMM), a new simulation-based estimation methodology, to model short-term interest rate processes. The primary advantage of IRGMM relative to classical estimators of the continuous-time short-rate diffusion processes is that it...

We develop a model that investigates how strategically interacting firms share a given set of spatially separated markets. We show that, for intermediate val-ues of transport costs, the spatial distribution of firms determines the structure of interregional trade, which in return influences this...
