【主题】Productivity Losses from Financial Frictions: Can Self-Financing Undo Capital Misallocation (written by Benjamin Moll, The American Economic Review, 2014, 104-10)
【摘要】I develop a highly tractable general equilibrium model in which heterogeneous producers face collateral constraints, and study the effect of financial frictions on capital misallocation and aggregate productivity. My economy is isomorphic to a Solow model but with time-varying TFP. I argue that the persistence of idiosyncratic productivity shocks determines both the size of steady state productivity losses and the speed of transitions: if shocks are persistent, steady state losses are small but transitions are slow. Even if financial frictions are unimportant in the long-run, they tend to matter in the short-run and analyzing steady states only can be misleading.
