Premature deindustrialization in most emerging and developing economies is one of the most striking stylized facts of the recent decades. In this paper, we provide solid empirical evidence supporting that the choice of a fixed exchange rate regime accelerates this phenomenon. Relying on a panel of 146 developed, emerging, and developing countries over the 1974–2019 period, we show that fixed exchange rate regimes have had a negative, significant, and robust effect on the size of the manufacturing sector—developing countries being the most affected by the industrial cost of such a regime. Additional gravity model regressions show that the impact of fixed regimes passes through the trade channel. In particular, this regime has kept countries with low relative productivity in a state of structural dependence on imports of manufactured products to the detriment of the emergence of a strong local manufacturing sector.

Insufficient physical and human capital are major impediments to development and poverty reduction in low-income countries. Given the financial constraint, should the governments emphasize physical capital or human capital investment and what instruments should they use? This paper addresses these questions using a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model with human capital and two-sectors: formal and informal. The model is estimated using data from India. Results demonstrate that investment subsidy is the most effective instrument in raising the GDP and aggregate welfare followed by government physical capital investment. However, both these policies mainly benefit the rich. The government investment in schooling and tuition subsidies targeted at poor are the most effective instruments for raising the employment income and welfare of poor. Using government physical capital investment in combination with either government schooling investment or tuition subsidy targeted at poor, the government can raise the GDP and income and welfare of both rich and poor.

This paper investigates the relevance of the “debt service channel” for external debt in developing countries, arguing that this channel exerts a distinct impact on economic activity beyond the effects of external debt levels. To characterize this mechanism, the paper first develops a small open economy real business cycle model featuring an external debt service mechanism. Specifically, the model incorporates a random maturity structure for external debt to demonstrate how debt burden shocks function as a distinct mechanism, independent of credit shocks. The impulse responses show that a rise in the debt service burden is associated with declines in employment, investment, consumption, and output, as economic agents are unable to fully smooth out these shocks due to prevailing budget constraints and risk premia. Empirical analysis for a large sample of developing countries covering the last five decades also produces supportive evidence. Namely, higher levels of external debt service lead to a contraction in output for an extended period, a finding that remains robust across various model specifications. Therefore, this paper establishes the significance of the “debt service channel” and shows its importance for external debt dynamics in developing countries.

Using a unique, nationally representative survey from the 2022 midterm elections, we investigate the partisan divide in beliefs about inflation. Party identity is predictive of inflation forecasts, as well as stated beliefs about recent inflation and the Federal Reserve’s long-run inflation target. After conditioning on those two variables, the partisan gap in forecasts is about half of the unconditional average difference between Democrats and Republicans. We find that the difference in reported forecasts conditional on nowcasts and long-run beliefs is driven by respondents who have high levels of knowledge about politics and lower levels of (generalized) trust in others. Our findings are consistent with the literature in political psychology that examines the endorsement of conspiracy theories and political misinformation, and imply a sizable portion of the partisan divide in inflation forecasts is attributable to strategic responses to forecast surveys.

We study how deviations from covered interest parity — captured by the cross-currency basis (CCB) — affect output growth. Using quarterly data for advanced economies (AEs) and emerging markets (EMs) in panel VAR and IV-local-projections models, we find that positive CCB shocks reduce output, implying that easier dollar funding conditions can be contractionary. While dollar liquidity still supports growth during acute stress episodes in AEs, it has the opposite effect in normal times. In AEs, exchange-rate appreciation compensates holders of local-currency assets, eroding export competitiveness and lowering growth. In EMs, easier dollar access encourages shifts into local-currency assets, crowding out domestic liquidity and dampening activity.

Why are supposedly exogenous monetary policy surprises, measured by changes in short-term financial contracts within short windows around FOMC announcements, partially predicted by pre-meeting economic and financial information? We propose a new explanation: the Federal Reserve targets economic variables by responding primarily to financial conditions while adopting a “wait-and-see” approach to recent economic data. When markets expect the Fed to target economic variables directly, this creates the predictable component of policy surprises. Using daily-frequency economic and financial data from 2000–2019, we find three pieces of supporting evidence: First, the previously documented strong predictors are reflected in financial markets and not in the Fed’s private information. Second, controlling for financial conditions, recent real economic surprises negatively predict policy surprises, which supports the “wait-and-see” hypothesis over a more aggressive response to economic news (Bauer and Swanson, 2023b). Third, financial conditions alone predict policy surprises as effectively as all other documented predictors combined.

This paper provides novel empirical evidence on the effects of a financial uncertainty shock on firm creation across the US states. Using state-level firm data between 1979 and 2019, we find that on average a one standard deviation financial uncertainty shock is associated with a 0.12 percentage point decline in the firm entry rate. Cross sectional regressions reveal that heterogeneity in industry composition and the existence and duration of right-to-work laws are an important source of transmission of a financial uncertainty shock to the states. In particular, a financial uncertainty shock is associated with larger declines in the firm entry rate in states with larger manufacturing and mining sectors and in states with a right-to-work law.

We use an instrumental-variables estimator reliant on variation in congressional representation to analyze the macroeconomic effects of federal aid to state and local governments during the COVID-19 pandemic. Through December 2022, we estimate statistically insignificant impacts of federal aid on employment. Our baseline point estimate suggests that $603,000 were allocated for each state or local government job-year preserved, and the bounds on our baseline confidence interval rule out estimates smaller than $220,400. Our estimates of effects on aggregate income and output are centered on zero and imply modest if any spillover effects onto the broader economy.

This paper estimates the public investment multiplier in a sample of emerging economies across Latin America and the Caribbean under a common methodological approach. Based on the Local Projections method, we identify fiscal shocks using timing restrictions for a panel of 11 countries observed over the last 30 years. The results show that the multiplier is, on average, 1.1 two years after the investment shock. In addition, we find heterogeneous multiplier effects depending on the degree of public investment efficiency. Under low levels of efficiency, public investment does not affect economic activity. However, the multiplier is 2.5 and private sector investment is stimulated for higher levels of efficiency. By shedding light on the size of the public investment multiplier and its sensitivity to efficiency levels, our findings inform the design of fiscal policy strategies conducive to sustainable growth in emerging markets.

The US federal government has long played a pivotal role in the mortgage market through various agencies, most notably the government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs). The importance of these agencies in the housing credit policy landscape increased during the 1990s and in the years leading up to the Great Recession. This article examines the time-varying effects of monetary policy on mortgage credit, focusing on the role of housing credit policy from the early 1990s to 2014. Using a time-varying parameter vector autoregression model and high-frequency monetary policy surprises, I show that GSEs’ activity in the secondary mortgage market has shaped the response of mortgage originations to monetary policy shocks. As GSEs became more involved in housing policy, the response of mortgage refinancing originations and GSEs’ mortgage purchases to monetary policy strengthened. This suggests that contractionary monetary policy, by undermining housing policy objectives and increasing profit opportunities from mortgage purchases, may prompt a stronger response from GSEs, which in turn dampens the adverse effects of monetary policy tightening on housing activity.
