【主题】Debt Constraints and Employment (written by Patrick Kehoe, Virgiliu Midrigan, and Elena Pastorino, 2014)
【摘要】In the Great Contraction, regions of the United States that experienced the largest declines in household debt to income also experienced the largest drops in consumption and employment. We develop a search and matching model that reproduces such patterns. Tighter debt constraints raise workers` and firms` discount rates, thus reducing match surplus, vacancy creation, and employment. Two ingredients of our model, on-the-job human capital accumulation and worker debt constraints, greatly amplify the drop in employment. We show that the model reproduces the salient cross-sectional features of the U.S. data, including the comovement between consumption, house prices, debt-to-income as well as tradable and non-tradable employment.
