Debt recycling is a leveraged equity management strategy in which homeowners use accumulated home equity to finance investments, applying the resulting returns to accelerate mortgage repayment. We propose a novel framework to model equity and mortgage dynamics in presence of mortgage interest rates, borrowing costs on equity-backed credit lines, and tax shields arising from interest deductibility. The model is calibr…

Since the end of 90s till today when all the elements confirming Georgian State System have practically been established, budget system and policy remains as the most difficult Georgian macroeconomics challenge and even still half-and-half unsolved problem. One side of the fiscal policy is quite crucially formulated and administrative Tax Code, and the other side is the weak, unmanaged and incomplete law on Budget Sy…

We consider the relationship between economic activity and intervention, including monetary and fiscal policy, using a universal dynamic framework. Central bank policies are designed for growth without excess inflation. However, unemployment, investment, consumption, and inflation are interlinked. Understanding dynamics is crucial to assessing the effects of policy, especially in the aftermath of the financial crisis…

During the Great Recession, Democrats in the United States argued that government spending could be utilized to "grease the wheels" of the economy in order to create wealth and to increase employment; Republicans, on the other hand, contended that government spending is wasteful and discouraged investment, thereby increasing unemployment. Today, in 2020, we find ourselves in the midst of another crisis where governme…

We empirically test the effects of unanticipated fiscal policy shocks on the growth rate and the cyclical component of real private output and reveal different types of asymmetries in fiscal policy implementation. The data used are quarterly U.S. observati ons over the period 1967:1 to 2011:4. In doing so, we use both a vector autoregressive and the novel support vector machines systems in order to extract the fiscal…

This paper investigates the relevance of the No-Ponzi game condition for public debt (i.e. the public debt growth rate has to be lower than the real interest rate, a necessary assumption for Ricardian equivalence) and of the transversality condition for the GDP growth rate (i.e. the GDP growth rate has to be lower than the real interest rate). First, on the unbalanced panel of 21 countries from 1961 to 2010 available…

Using introduced concept of the exchange and inflation rates adequacy, the relevance of them to the determining factors is found. We established close positive relation between hryvnia / dollar exchange and inflation rates, fiscal deficit, price level of energy sources, and money supply. On this basis, we give proposals for state macroeconomic policy to stabilize Ukrainian economy.

Advances in Reinforcement Learning (RL) span a wide variety of applications which motivate development in this area. While application tasks serve as suitable benchmarks for real world problems, RL is seldomly used in practical scenarios consisting of abrupt dynamics. This allows one to rethink the problem setup in light of practical challenges. We present Trade Execution using Reinforcement Learning (TradeR) which a…

We show how bad and good volatility propagate through forex markets, i.e., we provide evidence for asymmetric volatility connectedness on forex markets. Using high-frequency, intra-day data of the most actively traded currencies over 2007 - 2015 we document the dominating asymmetries in spillovers that are due to bad rather than good volatility. We also show that negative spillovers are chiefly tied to the dragging s…

Agents buy and sell services. All services are of equal quality. Buyers choose sellers at random. Monetary and fiscal policies are imposed by a central bank and a central government. Credit is supplied by a commercial banking system. Propensities to buy, sell, and lend depend on account balances, interest rates, tax rates and loan default rates. Computer simulations track weekly sales, loans, account balances, commer…

Abstract A number of panel unit root tests that allow for cross‐section dependence have been proposed in the literature that use orthogonalization type procedures to asymptotically eliminate the cross‐dependence of the series before standard panel unit root tests are applied to the transformed series. In this paper we propose a simple alternative where the standard augmented Dickey–Fuller (ADF) regressions are augmen…
