  • Capital Mobility and the Output-Inflation Tradeoff
    Journal of Development Economics, 2001
    Co-Authors: Prakash Loungani, Assaf Razin, Chi-wa Yuen
    Abstract:

    Abstract Identifying determinants of the output–inflation tradeoff has been a key issue in business cycle research. We provide evidence that in countries with greater restrictions on Capital Mobility, a given reduction in the inflation rate is associated with a smaller loss in output. This result is shown to be consistent with the predictions of a version of the Mundell–Fleming model. Restrictions on Capital Mobility are measured using the IMF's Annual Report on Exchange Rate Arrangements and Exchange Restrictions. Estimates of the output–inflation tradeoff are taken from previous studies (viz., Lucas [Am. Econ. Rev. 63 (1973)] and Ball, Mankies and Romer 19 (1988)).

  • Capital Mobility and labor market volatility
    International Economics and Economic Policy, 2010
    Co-Authors: M. Alper Çenesiz, Christian Pierdzioch
    Abstract:

    We used a dynamic two-country optimizing model featuring efficiency wages to analyze the implications of Capital Mobility for labor market volatility. Capital Mobility magnifies the short-run effects of productivity shocks and monetary shocks on employment and the real wage, but dampens the medium-run effects. The overall effects of Capital Mobility on the volatility and the cyclical properties of employment and the real wage are moderate.

  • Home-Product Bias, Capital Mobility, and Macroeconomic Volatility
    Social Science Research Network, 2008
    Co-Authors: Christian Pierdzioch
    Abstract:

    This paper uses a dynamic general equilibrium two-country optimizing model to analyse the consequences of international Capital Mobility for macroeconomic volatility. To this end, the dynamic macroeconomic effects of a monetary policy, a fiscal policy, and a labor supply shock are analysed. Simulations are used to analyse the implications of changes in the degree of Capital Mobility for the propagation of shocks. The simulation results obtained for a bond economy are compared with the simulation results obtained for a complete-market economy. It is shown that allowing for a home-product bias in preferences has a number of interesting implications for the way changes in international Capital Mobility and in the structure of international financial markets affect how shocks propagate through an open economy.

  • Capital Mobility and the effectiveness of fiscal policy in open economies
    Journal of Macroeconomics, 2004
    Co-Authors: Christian Pierdzioch
    Abstract:

    Abstract This paper uses a dynamic general equilibrium two-country optimizing ‘new-open economy macroeconomics’ model to analyze the consequences of international Capital Mobility for the effectiveness of fiscal policy. Conventional wisdom suggests that higher Capital Mobility diminishes the effectiveness of fiscal policy. The model laid out in this paper provides an example that a higher degree of Capital Mobility can also increase the effectiveness of fiscal policy. This tends to be the case if the stance of monetary policy can be described by means of a simple monetary policy rule.

  • Capital Mobility in saving and investment: A time-varying coefficients approach
    Journal of International Money and Finance, 2008
    Co-Authors: Paul Evans, Bong-han Kim
    Abstract:

    Abstract This paper uses a model with time-varying coefficients in order to track changes in Feldstein–Horioka saving-retention coefficients over time. To the extent that such coefficients measure international Capital Mobility, the main empirical findings are as follows. First, the stability of the saving-retention coefficient is strongly rejected. Second, Capital has long been perfectly mobile in Canada. Third, Capital Mobility has never been high in the United States. Fourth, Capital was more mobile in Japan and the United Kingdom at the turn of the 20th century than it has been during the postwar period. Capital Mobility has risen in Argentina, Italy and Sweden since around 1970. Finally, Capital Mobility for most of the countries considered has not monotonically increased during the postwar period.
