This paper examines the effects of credit market imperfections and idio- syncratic risks on occupational choice, capital accumulation, as well as on the income and wealth distribution in a two sector heterogeneous agent gen- eral equilibrium model. Workers and firm owners are subject to...

This paper combines the standard incomplete markets model of uninsurable idiosyncratic risks and borrowing constraints with the Arrow/Romer approach to endogenous growth to analyze the interaction of risk, growth, and inequality, the latter also endogenously determined in equilibrium. We derive...

This paper examines the pattern of international capital flows in a two–sector dynamic general equilibrium heterogeneous agent model with financial frictions and idiosyncratic entrepreneurial risk. Countries differ only with respect to the tightness of constraints on the domestic credit...

This paper analyzes conditions for strong rationality of the equilibrium in a linear/Gaussian model of a competitive commodity market, where firms are differentially informed about costs of production and the precision of private information is endogenously acquired. A Rational Expectations...
