Multi-attribute bi-matrix games with Cobb-Douglas preferences
We prove the existence of an equilibrium strategy profile with respect to Cobb-Douglas preferences for multi-attribute bi-matrix games when every coordinate of every attribute-vector under consideration is strictly positive.

Bank Performance Under Varying Urban and Rural Governance: Evidence From the COVID‐19 Pandemic
ABSTRACT This paper examines how state capacity influences the effect of economic shocks on local bank performance in urban and rural areas. Our identification strategy exploits COVID‐19's impact on Indonesia's community credit banks, which can only operate in a single region. Using loan loss provisions to represent credit risk and return on assets for

We correct an intermediate mistake in Barelli and Pessôa [Barelli P. and Pessôa S. de A., 2003, "Inada conditions imply that production function must be asymptotically Cobb-Douglas," Economics Letters 81, 361-363] and show that the main result is still ...

Output Gap Uncertainty, Sovereign Risk Premia and the Contingent Importance of the Bond Vigilantes
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the implications of output gap uncertainty for the conduct of fiscal policy using a small‐scale macroeconomic model with boundedly rational agents. Specifically, agents use an adaptive updating mechanism to approximate the unobservable potential output that suffers, similarly to the Hodrick and Prescott (1997) filter ...

Migrant Smuggling to Europe: A Two‐Sector Model With Directed Search
ABSTRACT In the last decade, combating migrant smuggling has emerged as a top priority for the European Union (EU). An idiosyncratic feature of this market is its dual supply‐side organization, comprising a small number of criminal cartels and a large mass of self‐employed smugglers.

Multilateral Index Approaches in the Presence of Product‐Specific Price Trends and Data Gaps
ABSTRACT The prices of some products respond more strongly to changes in the general price level than others. This study explains why such product‐specific price level elasticities lead to biased time‐product‐dummy (TPD) estimates of price levels. Other popular multilateral index approaches such as the Gini‐Éltető‐Köves‐Szulc (GEKS) and Geary‐Khamis ...

Optimal Export Taxes in Global Value Chain
ABSTRACT The determinants and optimality of implemented export taxes have long been understudied. In this work, I analyze how a country's optimal export taxes on products are influenced by their usage as inputs in traded final products. I decompose the influence of input–output linkages in the Global Value Chain (GVC) on optimal export policy into ...
