We develop a tractable two-country overlapping-generations model with domestic financial frictions and show that cross-country differences in financial development explain three recent empirical patterns of international capital flows. In our model, domestic financial frictions create two distinct distortions on the interest rates and production efficiency in the less financially developed coun...

This paper explores the booms and busts induced by news shocks in a model economy with financial market frictions. Firms can accumulate capital through either purchase of the existing capital or producing new capital by themselves. Firms need to borrow from financial intermediaries to finance their purchases of capital. With the presence of financial market frictions, firms have to pay an exter...

This paper investigates the determinants of capital structure of financial service firms in China. Using a relative regression of accounting data for 36 A-share financial listed companies over the years 2005-2009, an empirical study on determinants of capital structure in financial industry is conducted.

The purpose of the present study is to investigate the relationship between intellectual capital (human capital efficiency, customer capital efficiency, and structural capital efficiency) and economic value added of the listed companies on the Tehran Stock Exchange (TSE). The population includes 39 firms selected through systematic sampling. The data is collected from the audited financial stat...

The recent financial crisis has forced a rethink of banking regulation and supervision and the role of financial innovation. We develop a model where prudent banks may signal their type through high capital ratios. Capital regulation may ensure separation in equilibrium but deposit insurance will tend to increase the level of capital required. If supervision detects risky behaviour ex ante then...

The aim of this paper is to empirically investigate the effect of Intellectual Capital (IC) and its components on financial performance of Iranian banks accepted in Tehran Stock Exchange (TSE). The financial performances were measured by return on equity (ROE), return on assets (ROA), assets turnover (ATO), and book to market ratio (MB). This research covers 14 banks listed in TSE over the peri...

During the last few decades, many emerging markets have lifted restrictions on cross-border financial transactions. The conventional view was that this would allow these countries to: (i) receive capital inflows from advanced countries that would finance higher investment and growth; (ii) insure against aggregate shocks and reduce consumption volatility; and (iii) accelerate the development of ...

We build an infinite-horizon dynamic deterministic general equilibrium model with imperfect markets (because of borrowing constraints), in which heterogeneous agents invest in capital or/and financial asset, and consume. There is a representative firm who maximizes its profit. Firstly, the existence of intertemporal equilibrium is proved even if aggregate capital is not uniformly bounded. Secon...
