3 Background and Questions Understand macro and firm-level implications of credit crunches 1 Why do financial crises lead to severe recessions, and sustained rise in unemployment? Great Depression, recession ( Reinhart and Rogoff, 29 ) Propose theory integrating credit and labor market frictions 2 Which type of firms are more strongly affected by credit crunch? Age/size as indicators financial constraints of firms Employment growth in small/young businesses falls relative to old/large Fort, Haltiwanger, Jarmin and Miranda (212) Explore role of age and size in the model uera / Fattal Jaef/Shin (Chicago Fed / World Anatomy Bank/Wash of a Credit U) Crunch: from Capital to Labor Markets December 6th, / 22
4 Model Economy Heterogeneous agents in entrepreneurial productivity and wealth run an individual specific technology, work for the wage w t if employment opportunity, search for a job and earn subsidy w t (unemployed). Capital expenditures financed by: internal funds external funds, subject to collateral constraint (Buera and Shin, 29) Labor market friction: Walrasian equilibrium with matching frictions (Veracierto, 29) Buera / Fattal Jaef/Shin (Chicago Fed / World Anatomy Bank/Wash of a Credit U) Crunch: from Capital to Labor Markets December 6th, / 22
5 Main Results Credit crunch = reallocation of factors from constrained to unconstrained entrepreneurs Reduction in TFP (misallocation) Increase in unemployment, as reallocation is mediated by labor friction Reallocation process well captured by firm age and size: small/young businesses: more likely to be constrained, higher return to K net employment growth falls relative to old/large entrepreneurs Aggregate TFP shock has no effect on unemployment (flexible prices) Buera / Fattal Jaef/Shin (Chicago Fed / World Anatomy Bank/Wash of a Credit U) Crunch: from Capital to Labor Markets December 6th, / 22
6 Literature Review Financial frictions and business cycles: Kiyotaki Moore (1997), Bernanke and Gertler (1989) credit frictions and amplification of aggregate shocks Credit shocks and macroeconomic dynamics: Jermann and Quadrini (29) representative agent model, explicitly model debt and equity financing Credit Shocks and Heterogeneous Agents: Khan and Thomas (213), Lorenzoni and Guerrieri (211), Zettlin-Jones and Shourideh (212), Buera and Moll (212) frictionless labor markets Cyclical behavior of firms: Gilrchrist and Gerlter (1994); Chari, Christiano and Kehoe (27); Moscarini Postel-Vinay (212); Fort, Haltiwanger, Jarmin and Miranda (212) Buera / Fattal Jaef/Shin (Chicago Fed / World Anatomy Bank/Wash of a Credit U) Crunch: from Capital to Labor Markets December 6th, / 22
