Amid total factor productivity (TFP) shocks job-to-job flows amplify the volatility ofunemployment, but the aggregate implications of job-to-job flows amid financial shocks are lessunderstood. To develop such understanding we model a general equilibrium labor-searchframework that incorporates...

We use a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium search and matching model with salaried employment and informal self-employment to analyze the implications of introducing universal unemployment protection for informal workers through transfers, which are conditional on participation in training...
