| Research Abstract |
The main results of this project are as follows:
(1)Introducing financial market imperfection into the dynamic general equilibrium model, we develop a model of current account dynamics. Deriving analytical solution to the model, we test parameter restrictions under the perfect capital market for the Japanese economy The restrictions are rejected at a very high significance level and we conclude that the capital market imperfection plays an important role in Japan. (2)The importance of the main bank system is tested by using Japanese data on the manufacturing sector. The results indicate that the main bank system has a negative effect on the efficiency of the Japanese banking sector. (3)We extend the first-generation models of financial crises and show that the model can explain systematic devaluations of soft currencies that are independent of the fundamentals of an economy. (4)Using the Japanese flow data on the labor market, we show that the recent inflows and outflow to unemployment are both increasing and that the possibility of unemployment is also rising. (5)The determinants of long-run growth are analyzed. It is shown that there is an optimal patent length to maximize the welfare level and that the debt poly of the government affects the long-run growth rate. (6)Constructing a two-country two goods dynamic model, we analyze the international spillover effects of fiscal policy. We derive an exact formula expressing the welfare effect, and by use of it we show that the welfare effect of a country's fiscal expansion depends on the foreign asset position and on the composition of the government spending.
