This note provides a new proof of the non–emptiness of the fuzzy core in a pure exchange economy with finitely many agents. The proof is based on the concept of (Π, β)–balanced core for games without side payments due to Bonnisseau and Iehlé (2003). JEL classification codes: D51, C71.

Allocation rules for cooperative games can be manipulated by coalitions merging into single players, or, conversely, players splitting into a number of smaller units. This paper collects some (im)possibility results on mergingand splitting-proofness of (core) allocation rules for cooperative games with side-payments. JEL classification: C71, D23, D71.

In this study a simulation analysis is applied to address the change in banks liquidity demand due to a shift in settlement method brought about by adopting Real Time Gross Settlement System. At the first stage of this research, we use a data generator model along with some information on the time distribution of coded cheques over a working day in order to produce intraday flow of payment...

The traditional view of growth and fluctuations implies that aggregate demand shocks result in only transitory departures from trend or “normal” output, which is determined exclusively by aggregate supply factors. Using a simple dynamic framework for a less-developed economy, a series of models is developed to show that aggregate demand can have a permanent effect on economic growth. It is show...

â â â  â â â â â  the aim of this paper is to simulate the effects of some macroeconomic policy tools on production and inflation of iran by the current worldwide financial and real crisis. the theoretical framework of the analysis is based on the so-called ‘imf/world bank integrated model’ which is the synthesis (a merger) of the basic monetary approach of the balance of payments used at t...

in this paper, we first review shortly movements in international monetary system and various theories of capital flows including portfolio and balance of payments approaches. then, we will focus particularly on feldstein- horioka (f-h) approach by which capital mobility is analyzed for 16 developing countries over 1980-2003 through a panel data method. the main objective of this paper is thus ...
