Title: Asset Bubbles and Foreign Interest Rate Shocks

Authors: Jianjun Miao, Pengfei Wang, Jing Zhou

Abstract:

We provide an infinite-horizon general equilibrium model of a small open economy with both domestic and international financial market frictions. Firms face credit constraints and use a bubble asset (land) as collateral to borrow. A land bubble can provide liquidity and relax credit constraints. Low foreign interest rates are conducive to bubble formation. A rise in foreign interest rate can cause the collapse of the asset bubble, which in turn causes an equilibrium regime shift and a sudden stop. Asset bubbles provide an important amplification mechanism.
