Flexibility of wages and macroeconomic instability in an agent-based computational model with endogenous money
We present a model of a dynamic and complex economy in which the creation and the destruction of money result from interactions between multiple and heterogeneous agents. In the baseline scenario, we observe the stabilization of the income distribution between wages and profits. We then alter the model by increasing the flexibility of wages. This change leads to the formation of a deflationary ...
متن کاملCredit Money and Macroeconomic Instability in the Agent-based Model and Simulator Eurace
This paper investigates the interplay between monetary aggregates and the dynamics and variability of output and prices by considering both the money supplied by commercial banks as credit to firms and the fiat money created by the central bank through the quantitative easing monetary policy. The authors address this problem by means of an agentbased model and simulator, called Eurace, which is...
متن کاملAn Agent-Based Decentralized Matching Macroeconomic Model
In this paper we present a basic but flexible macroeconomic framework with heterogeneous agents – households, firms, banks – which interact through a decentralized matching process presenting common features across four markets – goods, labour, credit and deposit. We study the dynamics of the model by means of computer simulation. Some macroeconomic properties emerge such as endogenous business...
متن کاملMulti-Agent Based Modelling of an Endogenous-Money Economy
We present an agent-based model of a simple endogenous-money economy. The model simulates agents representing individual persons who can work, consume, invent new products and related production technologies, apply for a loan from the bank and start up a business. Through the interaction of persons with the firms, we simulate the production of goods, consumption and labour market. In order to a...
متن کاملHow Inflation Affects Macroeconomic Performance: An Agent-Based Computational Investigation∗
We use an agent-based computational approach to show how inflation can worsen macroeconomic performance by disrupting the mechanism of exchange in a decentralized market economy. We find that, in our model economy, increasing the trend rate of inflation above 3 percent has a substantial deleterious effect, but lowering it below 3 percent has no significant macroeconomic consequences. Our findin...
