Item type:Publication, Excessive bank risk-taking in an infinite horizon economy(Elsevier B.V., 2024-08-01)We develop a dynamic framework to study banks’ incentives to take excessive risk in an emerging economy, where bank default probability and excess bank risk-taking are modeled endogenously. We calibrate it for the 1998 Peruvian economy. We find that the infinite-period feature amplifies banks’ incentives to take excessive risk. When we simulate the sudden stop that hit Peru in 1998, the model accurately predicts the substantial short-term rise in the non-performing loans ratio through the rise of the bank default probability. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Regime-switching, fiscal policy shocks and macroeconomic fluctuations in Peru(Elsevier BV, 2026-06-01)Following Chan and Eisenstat (2018a), we use a family of regime-switching models to analyze the evolution of fiscal shocks impacts on Peru’s economic growth from 1995Q1 to 2019Q4. Key findings include: (i) identification of two distinct economic regimes with different macroeconomic fundamentals tied to improvements in fiscal and monetary policy; (ii) enhanced model fit with the inclusion of regime switching volatility (RSV); (iii) a positive trend in the size of spending multipliers, though they remain below unity; (iv) during the 2008 Global Financial Crisis, capital expenditure shocks mitigated the decline in economic growth by 2 percentage points, highlighting their counter-cyclical potential. These findings are corroborated by robustness checks, which include changes in priors, variable reordering, adjustments in external and demand variables, and extending the sample to 2022Q4 to encompass the COVID-19 crisis.1
