We study the effectiveness of targeted reserve requirements (RR) as a policy tool for macroeconomic stabilization. Targeted RR adjustments were implemented in China during both the 2008-09 global financial crisis and the recent COVID-19 pandemic. We develop a model in which firms with idiosyncratic productivity can borrow from two types of banks---local or national---to finance working capital. National banks provide liquidity services, while local banks have superior monitoring technologies, such that both types coexist. Relationship banking is modeled in terms of a fixed cost of switching lenders, and banks choose to switch only under sufficiently large shocks. Reducing RR on local banks boosts leverage and aggregate output, whereas reducing RR on national banks has an ambiguous output effect. Following a large recessionary shock, a targeted RR policy that reduces RR for local banks relative to national banks can lower costs of switching lenders, stabilizing macroeconomic fluctuations. However, targeting RR in that manner also boosts local bank leverage, increasing risks of default and related liquidation losses. Our model's mechanism is supported by bank-level empirical evidence.
我们研究了目标存款准备金率作为宏观经济稳定的政策工具的有效性。在2008-09年全球金融危机和最近的COVID-19大流行期间,中国都实施了有针对性的RR调整。我们开发了一个模型,在这个模型中,具有特殊生产率的公司可以从两种类型的银行(地方银行或国家银行)借款,为营运资本融资。国家银行提供流动性服务,而地方银行拥有优越的监控技术,因此两种类型并存。关系型银行是根据转换贷款机构的固定成本进行建模的,银行只有在受到足够大的冲击时才会选择转换。降低地方银行的存款准备金率会提高杠杆率和总产出,而降低国家银行的存款准备金率对产出的影响并不明确。在大规模的衰退冲击之后,有针对性的RR政策可以降低地方银行相对于全国银行的RR,从而降低转换贷款机构的成本,稳定宏观经济波动。然而,以这种方式瞄准RR也会推高当地银行的杠杆率,增加违约和相关清算损失的风险。我们的模型机制得到了银行层面经验证据的支持。

The Financial Origins of Non-Fundamental Risk 非基本风险的金融起源
Pub Date : 2023-05-01 DOI: 10.24148/wp2023-20

We formalize the idea that the financial sector can be a source of non-fundamental risk. Households' desire to hedge against price volatility can generate price volatility in equilibrium, even absent fundamental risk. Fearing that asset prices may fall, risk-averse households demand safe assets from leveraged intermediaries, whose issuance of safe assets exposes the economy to self-fulfilling fire sales. Policy can eliminate nonfundamental risk by (i) increasing the supply of publicly backed safe assets, through issuing government debt or bailing out intermediaries, or (ii) reducing the demand for safe assets, through social insurance or by acting as a market maker of last resort.
我们将金融部门可能成为非基本面风险来源的观点正式化。即使没有基本面风险,家庭对冲价格波动的愿望也会产生均衡的价格波动。由于担心资产价格可能下跌,厌恶风险的家庭要求杠杆化中介机构提供安全资产,而这些中介机构发行安全资产,使经济面临自我实现的甩卖。政策可以通过(i)通过发行政府债券或救助中介机构来增加公共支持的安全资产的供应,或(ii)通过社会保险或作为最后的做市商来减少对安全资产的需求,从而消除非基本面风险。

The Transmission of Negative Nominal Interest Rates in Finland 芬兰负名义利率的传导
Pub Date : 2023-04-20 DOI: 10.24148/wp2023-11

Despite the implementation of negative nominal interest rates by several advanced economies in the last decade and the many papers that have been written about this novel policy tool, there is still much we do not know about the effectiveness of this instrument. The pass-through of negative policy rates to loan rates is one of the main points of contention. In this paper, we analyze the pass-through of the ECB’s changes in the deposit facility rate to mortgage rates in Finland between 2005 and 2020. We use monthly data and three different empirical methodologies: correlational event studies, high-frequency identification, and exposure-measure regressions. We provide robust evidence that there continues to be pass-through of a cut in the policy rate to mortgage rates even when the policy rate is in negative territory, but that this pass-through is smaller than when the policy rate is in positive territory. The evidence in this paper contrasts with some previous studies and provides moments that can be useful to discipline theoretical negative-rates models.
尽管在过去十年中,几个发达经济体实施了负名义利率,也发表了许多关于这一新颖政策工具的论文,但我们对这一工具的有效性仍有很多不了解。负政策利率对贷款利率的传导是争论的焦点之一。在本文中,我们分析了2005年至2020年间欧洲央行在芬兰存款便利利率变化对抵押贷款利率的传递。我们使用月度数据和三种不同的实证方法:相关事件研究、高频识别和暴露测量回归。我们提供了强有力的证据表明,即使政策利率处于负值区域,政策利率下调对抵押贷款利率的影响仍在继续,但这种影响小于政策利率处于正值区域时的影响。本文中的证据与先前的一些研究形成对比,并提供了对规范理论负利率模型有用的时刻。

A Local Projections Approach to Difference-in-Differences Event Studies 差异事件研究的局部预测方法
Pub Date : 2023-04-20 DOI: 10.24148/wp2023-12
Arindrajit Dube, Daniele Girardi, Òscar Jordà, Alan M. Taylor
Many of the challenges in the estimation of dynamic heterogeneous treatment effects can be resolved with local projection (LP) estimators of the sort used in applied macroeconometrics. This approach provides a convenient alternative to the more complicated solutions proposed in the recent literature on Difference in-Differences (DiD). The key is to combine LPs with a flexible ‘clean control’ condition to define appropriate sets of treated and control units. Our proposed LP-DiD estimator is clear, simple, easy and fast to compute, and it is transparent and flexible in its handling of treated and control units. Moreover, it is quite general, including in its ability to control for pre-treatment values of the outcome and of other time-varying covariates. The LP-DiD estimator does not suffer from the negative weighting problem, and indeed can be implemented with any weighting scheme the investigator desires. Simulations demonstrate the good performance of the LP-DiD estimator in common settings. Two recent empirical applications illustrate how LP-DiD addresses the bias of conventional fixed effects estimators, leading to potentially different results.
在估计动态异质性治疗效果方面的许多挑战可以用应用宏观计量经济学中使用的那种局部投影(LP)估计器来解决。这种方法为最近关于差异中的差异(DiD)的文献中提出的更复杂的解决方案提供了一种方便的选择。关键是将lp与灵活的“清洁控制”条件相结合,以定义适当的处理和控制单元。我们提出的LP-DiD估计器清晰,简单,易于计算且快速,并且在处理处理和控制单元时透明且灵活。此外,它是相当普遍的,包括它控制结果的预处理值和其他时变协变量的能力。LP-DiD估计器不受负加权问题的困扰,并且确实可以用研究者想要的任何加权方案来实现。仿真结果表明,LP-DiD估计器在一般情况下具有良好的性能。最近的两个实证应用说明了LP-DiD如何解决传统固定效应估计器的偏差,从而导致潜在的不同结果。

The Quality-Adjusted Cyclical Price of Labor 劳动力质量调整周期价格
Pub Date : 2023-03-20 DOI: 10.24148/wp2023-10
Mark Bils, Marianna Kudlyak, Paulo Lins
Typical measures of wages, such as average hourly earnings, fail to capture cyclicality in the effective cost of labor in the presence of (i) cyclical fluctuations in the quality of worker-firm matches, or (ii) wages being smoothed within employment matches. To address both concerns, we estimate cyclicality in labor’s user cost exploiting the longrun wage in a match to control for match quality. Using NLSY data for 1980 to 2019, we identify three channels by which hiring in a recession affects user cost: It lowers the new-hire wage; it lowers wages going forward in the match; but it also results in higher subsequent separations. All totaled, we find that labor’s user cost is highly procyclical, increasing by more than 4% for a 1 pp decline in the unemployment rate. For large recessions, like the Great Recession, that implies a decline in the price of labor of about 15%.
典型的工资衡量标准,如平均小时收入,在以下情况下无法反映有效劳动力成本的周期性:(i)工人与企业匹配质量的周期性波动,或(ii)工资在就业匹配中得到平滑。为了解决这两个问题,我们估计了劳动力用户成本的周期性,利用比赛中的长期工资来控制比赛质量。利用1980年至2019年的NLSY数据,我们确定了经济衰退中招聘影响用户成本的三个渠道:它降低了新员工的工资;在比赛中,这会降低工资;但这也会导致更高的后续分离率。总而言之,我们发现劳动力的用户成本是高度顺周期的,失业率每下降1个百分点,劳动力的用户成本就会增加4%以上。对于像大衰退这样的大衰退,这意味着劳动力价格下降了15%左右。

Incorporating Diagnostic Expectations into the New Keynesian Framework 将诊断性预期纳入新凯恩斯主义框架
Pub Date : 2023-03-01 DOI: 10.24148/wp2023-19
Jean-Paul L’Huillier, Sanjay R. Singh, Donghoon Yoo
Diagnostic expectations constitute a realistic behavioral model of inference. This paper shows that this approach to expectation formation can be productively integrated into the New Keynesian framework. Diagnostic expectations generate endogenous extrapolation in general equilibrium. We show that diagnostic expectations generate extra amplification in the presence of nominal frictions; a fall in aggregate supply generates a Keynesian recession; fiscal policy is more effective at stimulating the economy. We perform Bayesian estimation of a rich medium-scale model that incorporates consensus forecast data. Our estimate of the diagnosticity parameter is in line with previous studies. Moreover, we find empirical evidence in favor of the diagnostic model. Diagnostic expectations offer new propagation mechanisms to explain fluctuations.
诊断期望构成了一个现实的推理行为模型。本文表明,这种期望形成的方法可以有效地整合到新凯恩斯主义框架中。诊断期望在一般均衡中产生内生外推。我们表明,在名义摩擦存在的情况下,诊断预期会产生额外的放大效应;总供给的下降会产生凯恩斯式的衰退;财政政策在刺激经济方面更为有效。我们执行贝叶斯估计一个丰富的中等规模模型,其中包括共识预测数据。我们对诊断参数的估计与以往的研究一致。此外,我们发现实证证据有利于诊断模型。诊断期望为解释波动提供了新的传播机制。

The Canary in the Coal Decline: Appalachian Household Finance and the Transition from Fossil Fuels 煤炭衰退的金丝雀:阿巴拉契亚家庭财务和从化石燃料过渡

The energy transition away from fossil fuels presents significant transition risks for communities historically built around the fossil fuel industry. This paper uses the decline in the Appalachian coal industry between 2011 and 2018 to understand how individuals are harmed by a reduction in local fossil fuel extraction activity. We use individual-level credit data and exogenous variation in coal demand from the electricity sector to identify how the coal mining industry’s decline affected the finances of Appalachian households. We find that the decline in demand for coal caused broad-based negative impacts, decreasing credit scores and increasing credit utilization, delinquencies, amounts in third party collections, bankruptcy rates, and the number of individuals with subprime status. These effects were broad based and cannot be explained solely by individuals who lost coal mining jobs. Individuals with the lowest pre-period credit scores were more likely to end up in financial distress and experienced a greater deterioration in credit scores. Quantile regressions show that the drop in credit scores from the coal decline was most pronounced between the 30th and 50th percentiles of the credit score distribution. Our results provide evidence that people living in fossil fuel extraction regions are likely to experience declines in financial well-being from the energy transition even if they do not directly work in the affected industry.
远离化石燃料的能源转型给历史上围绕化石燃料行业建立的社区带来了重大的转型风险。本文利用2011年至2018年阿巴拉契亚煤炭工业的衰落来了解当地化石燃料开采活动减少对个人的伤害。我们使用个人信用数据和电力部门煤炭需求的外生变化来确定煤炭开采行业的衰退如何影响阿巴拉契亚家庭的财务状况。我们发现,煤炭需求的下降造成了广泛的负面影响,信用评分下降,信用利用率上升,违约率上升,第三方催收金额上升,破产率上升,次贷个人数量上升。这些影响是广泛的,不能仅仅用失去煤矿工作的个人来解释。前期信用评分最低的个人更有可能陷入财务困境,信用评分也会恶化得更厉害。分位数回归显示,在信用评分分布的第30和第50个百分位数之间,煤炭价格下跌导致的信用评分下降最为明显。我们的研究结果提供了证据,表明生活在化石燃料开采地区的人们,即使他们不直接在受影响的行业工作,也可能会因能源转型而经历经济福祉的下降。

Labor Market Effects of Global Supply Chain Disruptions 全球供应链中断对劳动力市场的影响
Pub Date : 2023-02-27 DOI: 10.24148/wp2023-08
M. Ulate, José P. Vásquez, R. Zárate
We examine the labor market consequences of recent global supply chain disruptions induced by COVID-19. Specifically, we consider a temporary increase in international trade costs similar to the one observed during the pandemic and analyze its effects on labor market outcomes using a quantitative trade model with downward nominal wage rigidities. Even omitting any health related impacts of the pandemic, the increase in trade costs leads to a temporary but prolonged decline in U.S. labor force participation. However, there is a temporary increase in manufacturing employment as the United States is a net importer of manufactured goods, which become costlier to obtain from abroad. By contrast, service and agricultural employment experience temporary declines. Nominal frictions lead to temporary unemployment when the shock dissipates, but this depends on the degree of monetary accommodation. Overall, the shock results in a 0.14% welfare loss for the United States. The impact on labor force participation and welfare across countries varies depending on the initial degree of openness and sectoral deficits.
我们研究了最近由COVID-19引起的全球供应链中断对劳动力市场的影响。具体而言,我们考虑了与大流行期间类似的国际贸易成本的暂时增加,并使用名义工资刚性向下的定量贸易模型分析了其对劳动力市场结果的影响。即使不考虑疫情对健康的影响,贸易成本的增加也会导致美国劳动力参与率出现暂时但长期的下降。然而,由于美国是制成品的净进口国,从国外获得制成品的成本变得更高,制造业就业出现了暂时的增加。相比之下,服务业和农业就业经历了暂时的下降。当冲击消散时,名义摩擦会导致暂时失业,但这取决于货币宽松的程度。总的来说,这次冲击导致美国的福利损失了0.14%。对各国劳动力参与和福利的影响取决于最初的开放程度和部门赤字。

The Productivity Slowdown in Advanced Economies: Common Shocks or Common Trends? 发达经济体生产率放缓:共同冲击还是共同趋势?
Pub Date : 2023-02-26 DOI: 10.24148/wp2023-07
John G. Fernald, R. Inklaar, Dimitrije Ruzic
This paper reviews advanced-economy productivity developments in recent decades. We focus primarily on the facts about, and explanations for, the mid-2000s labor-productivity slowdown in large European countries and the United States. Slower total factor productivity growth was the proximate cause of the slowdown. This conclusion is robust to measurement challenges including the role of intangible assets, rankings of productivity levels, and data revisions. We contrast two main narratives for the stagnating productivity frontier: The shock of the Global Financial Crisis; and a common slowdown in productivity trends. Distinguishing these two empirically is hard, but the pre-recession timing of the U.S. slowdown suggests an important role for the common-trend explanation. We also discuss the unusual pattern of productivity growth since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic. Although it is early, there is little evidence so far that the large pandemic shock has changed the slow pre-pandemic trajectory of productivity growth.
本文回顾了近几十年来发达经济体生产率的发展。我们主要关注本世纪头十年中期欧洲大国和美国劳动生产率放缓的事实及其解释。全要素生产率增长放缓是经济放缓的直接原因。这一结论是稳健的测量挑战,包括无形资产的作用,生产力水平的排名,和数据修订。我们对比了生产率边界停滞不前的两种主要说法:全球金融危机的冲击;生产率趋势普遍放缓。从经验上区分这两者很难,但美国经济放缓在衰退前的时间点表明,共同趋势解释发挥了重要作用。我们还讨论了自2019冠状病毒病大流行开始以来生产率增长的不同寻常模式。虽然现在还为时过早,但迄今几乎没有证据表明,大流行的冲击改变了大流行前缓慢的生产率增长轨迹。

We focus primarily on the facts about, and explanations for, the mid-2000s labor-productivity slowdown in large European countries and the United States. Slower total factor productivity growth was the proximate cause of the slowdown. This conclusion is robust to measurement challenges including the role of intangible assets, rankings of productivity levels, and data revisions. We contrast two main narratives for the stagnating productivity frontier: The shock of the Global Financial Crisis; and a common slowdown in productivity trends. Distinguishing these two empirically is hard, but the pre-recession timing of the U.S. slowdown suggests an important role for the common-trend explanation.

State-Dependent Local Projections: Understanding Impulse Response Heterogeneity 状态相关的局部投影:理解脉冲响应异质性

An impulse response is the dynamic average effect of an intervention across horizons. We use the well-known Kitagawa-Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition to explore a response’s heterogeneity over time and over states of the economy. This can be implemented with a simple extension to the usual local projection specification that nevertheless keeps the model linear in parameters. Using our new decomposition-based approach, we show how to unpack heterogeneity in the fiscal multiplier, an object that at any point in time may depend on a number of potentially correlated factors, including existing economic conditions and the monetary response. In our application, the fiscal multiplier varies considerably with monetary policy: it can be as small as zero, or as large as 2, depending on the degree of monetary offset.
脉冲响应是跨视界干预的动态平均效应。我们使用著名的Kitagawa-Blinder-Oaxaca分解来探索响应随时间和经济状态的异质性。这可以通过对通常的局部投影规范的简单扩展来实现,但仍然保持模型在参数上的线性。使用我们新的基于分解的方法,我们展示了如何解开财政乘数的异质性,这个对象在任何时间点都可能取决于许多潜在的相关因素,包括现有的经济状况和货币反应。在我们的应用中,财政乘数随货币政策变化很大:它可以小到零,也可以大到2,这取决于货币抵消的程度。
