A Macroeconomic Analysis of Energy Subsidies in a Small Open Economy
We construct a dynamic general equilibrium model to analyze the effects of large energy subsidies in a small open economy. The model includes domestic energy production and consumption, trade in energy at world market prices, as well as private and public sector production. The model is calibrated to Egypt and used to study reforms such as reductions in energy subsidies with corresponding reduc...
متن کاملA Macroeconomic Analysis of Energy Subsidies in a Small Open Economy: The Case of Egypt
We construct a dynamic general equilibrium model to analyze the effects of large energy subsidies in a small open economy. The model pays special attention to domestic energy production and consumption, trade in energy at world market prices, as well as private and public sector production including the provision of public infrastructure. The model is calibrated to data from Egypt and then used...
متن کاملFinancial Liberalization and Inflationary Dynamics: An Open Economy Analysis
The paper analyzes the effects of financial liberalization on inflation. We develop a monetary and endogenous growth, dynamic general equilibrium model of a small open semi-industrialized economy, with financial intermediaries subjected to obligatory ”high” reserve ratio, serving as the source of financial repression. When calibrated to four Southern European semi-industrialized countries, name...
متن کاملPrices and Subsidies in the Sharing Economy
The growth of the sharing economy is driven by the emergence of sharing platforms, e.g., Uber and Lyft, that match owners looking to share their resources with customers looking to rent them. The design of such platforms is a complex mixture of economics and engineering, and how to “optimally”design such platforms is still an open problem. In this paper, we focus on the design of prices and sub...
متن کاملThe political economy of labor subsidies
We explore a political-economy model of labor subsidies, extending Meltzer and Richard’s median-voter model to a dynamic setting. We explore only one source of heterogeneity: initial wealth. As a consequence, given an operative wealth effect, poorer agents work harder, and if the agent with median wealth is poorer than average, a politico-economic equilibrium will feature a subsidy to labor. Th...
