Does Learning Lead to Coordination on Market Clearing Institutions?
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper analyzes the question whether traders learn to coordinate on a trading institution that guarantees market clearing, or whether other market institutions can survive in the long run. While we find that the market clearing institution is indeed always stable under a general class of learning dynamics, it turns out that also other, non-market clearing institutions are stable. Hence, in the long run traders may fail to coordinate exclusively on market clearing institutions. JEL-Codes: D4, D83

متن کاملGeneral Equilibrium and the Emergence of (non) Market Clearing Trading Institutions
General Equilibrium and the Emergence of (Non) Market Clearing Trading Institutions We consider a pure exchange economy, where for each good several trading institutions are available, only one of which is market-clearing. The other feasible trading institutions lead to rationing. To learn on which trading institutions to coordinate, traders follow behavioural rules of thumb that are based on t...
متن کاملIntelligent multi-agent modeling of the interbank network and evaluation of the impact of regulatory policies
agent-based modeling is an emerging computational technique that makes it possible to simulate complex economic systems, including the banking network, with a bottom-up approach. In this paper, the country's banking network is simulated with an intelligent multi-agent modeling model and indicates that these agents behave based on the adaptive learning. This modeling has been done with the aim o...
متن کاملOn the Evolution of Market Institutions: the Platform Design Paradox
On the Evolution of Market Institutions: The Platform Design Paradox* This paper analyses a situation where market designers create new trading platforms and traders learn to select among them. We ask whether 'Walrasian' platforms, leading to market-clearing trading outcomes, will dominate the market in the long run. If several market designers are competing, we find that traders will learn to ...
متن کاملTeaching Agent-Based Computational Economics to Graduate Students
Agent-based computational economics (ACE) is roughly defined as the computational study of economies modeled as evolving decentralized systems of autonomous interacting agents. A key focus of ACE research is understanding how global regularities' arise from the-bottom^up, through the repeated local interactions-of autonomous agents channeled through socioeconomic institutions, rather than from ...
