We show the importance of emission disclosure for climate policies in a DSGE model for the euro area. A low-carbon energy and a fossil energy sector contribute to production and are financed by balance-sheet constrained intermediaries. The underestimation of emissions from fossil energy firms...

Klimabezogene Risiken aus der Transition zu einem CO2-armen Wirtschaftssystem können potentielle Verwundbarkeiten des Finanzsystems offenlegen. Wir entwickeln und beschreiben in diesem Artikel ein Instrumentarium zur Analyse dieser Risiken und wenden es auf das deutsche Finanzsystem an. Die...

This paper presents the methodology applied in the Deutsche Bundesbank's climate transition stress test for the German financial system, see Deutsche Bundesbank (2023). It discusses the construction of the transition scenarios underlying the analysis, including a long-run orderly scenario and a...

Climate-related risks arising from the transition to a low-carbon economy may expose potential vulnerabilities in the financial system. In this article, we develop and describe a set of tools for analysing these risks and apply them to the German financial system. The use of longterm, consistent...

We study the role of health care within a continuous time economy of overlapping generations subject to endogenous mortality. The economy consists of two sectors: final goods production and a health care sector, selling medical services to individuals. Individuals demand health care with a view...

We study medical progress within an economy of overlapping generations subject to endogenous mortality. We characterize the individual optimum and the general equilibrium of the economy and study the impact of improvements in the effectiveness of health care. We find that general equilibrium...

We study medical progress within an economy of overlapping generations subject to endogenous mortality. Individuals demand health care with a view to lowering mortality over their life-cycle. We characterise the individual optimum and the general equilibrium of the economy and study the impact...

We study the impact of health insurance expansion in the US on health expenditure, longevity growth and welfare in an overlapping generations economy in which individuals purchase health care to lower mortality. We consider three sectors: final goods production; a health care sector, selling...

The paper presents a transformation of a multi-stage optimal control model with random switching time to an age-structured optimal control model. Following the mathematical transformation, the advantages of the present approach, as compared to a standard backward approach, are discussed. They...

In this paper, we study how lower corporate tax rates impact investment by including two novel channels into a DSGE model used for fiscal policy analysis in Norway. We capture both how foreign firms relocate and invest in the country when corporate taxes are reduced and how the inflow of FDI...
