1 Cross-Country Heterogeneity in Intertemporal Substitution Tomas Havranek Roman Horvath Zuzana Irsova Marek Rusnak Charles University, Institute of Economic Studies Czech National Bank, Research Department Joint Research Center for Dynamic Models in Economics Workshop, 2 June 2014 Tomas Havranek (IES, CNB) Elasticity of Intertemporal Substitution DYME, 2 June / 23
2 Elasticity of Intertemporal Substitution in Consumption The EIS reflects households willingness to substitute consumption between time periods in response to changes in the expected real interest rate. Important in models involving intertemporal choice: monetary policy, fiscal policy, portfolio choice, computing the social cost of carbon emissions, and more. Tomas Havranek (IES, CNB) Elasticity of Intertemporal Substitution DYME, 2 June / 23
3 The Elasticity Matters Change in investment (%) EIS = 0.1 EIS = 0.3 EIS = 0.5 EIS = 1 EIS = Quarters after a one-percentage-point increase in the policy rate Tomas Havranek (IES, CNB) Elasticity of Intertemporal Substitution DYME, 2 June / 23
4 Calibrations Vary. Study EIS Outlet House & Shapiro (2006) 0.2 American Economic Review Piazzesi et al. (2007) 0.2 Journal of Financial Economics Chari et al. (2003) 0.2 Review of Economic Studies Trabandt & Uhlig (2011) 0.5 Journal of Monetary Economics Jin (2012) 0.5 American Economic Review Rudebusch & Swanson (2012) 0.5 American Economic Journal: Macro Smets & Wouters (2007) 2/3 American Economic Review Bansal & Yaron (2004) 1.5 Journal of Finance Ai (2010) 2 Journal of Finance Barro (2009) 2 American Economic Review Colacito & Croce (2011) 2 Journal of Political Economy Tomas Havranek (IES, CNB) Elasticity of Intertemporal Substitution DYME, 2 June / 23
5 Different Justifications Study EIS Explanation House & Shapiro (2006) 0.2 p. 1837: Our calibration is roughly the average estimate in Hall (1988), Campbell and Mankiw (1989), and Barsky et al. (1997). Trabandt & Uhlig (2011) 0.5 p. 311: For the intertemporal elasticity of substitution, a general consensus is followed for it to be close to 0.5. Smets & Wouters (2007) 2/3 p. 593: These are all quite standard calibrations. Barro (2009) 2 p. 252: Because of the shortcomings of the macroeconomic estimates, it is worthwhile to consider microeconomic evidence. The Gruber (2006) analysis is particularly attractive (... ). Tomas Havranek (IES, CNB) Elasticity of Intertemporal Substitution DYME, 2 June / 23
6 Call for a Meta-Analysis Empirical studies produce very different estimates of the EIS. Browning & Lusardi (1996, p. 1833): It is frustrating in the extreme that we have very little idea of what gives rise to the different findings. We still await a study which traces all of the sources of differences in conclusions to sample period; sample selection; functional form; variable definition; demographic controls; econometric technique; stochastic specification; instrument definition; etc. Tomas Havranek (IES, CNB) Elasticity of Intertemporal Substitution DYME, 2 June / 23

8 Results Main Findings 1 The elasticity of intertemporal substitution varies a lot across countries. 2 Households in rich countries and countries with high stock market participation substitute more intertemporally. 3 Some method choices have systematic effects on the estimated elasticity (data frequency, inclusion of durables). Project Website Tomas Havranek (IES, CNB) Elasticity of Intertemporal Substitution DYME, 2 June / 23
9 Estimating the Elasticity Researchers usually follow Hall (1988) and use the log-linearized consumption Euler equation: c t+1 = α i + EIS r i,t+1 + ɛ i,t+1. c t+1 is consumption growth at time t + 1 r i,t+1 is the real return on asset i at time t + 1 Instruments for r i,t+1 typically include the values of asset returns and consumption growth known at time t. Tomas Havranek (IES, CNB) Elasticity of Intertemporal Substitution DYME, 2 June / 23
10 Data Collection We find 169 published studies that report estimates of the EIS. These studies provide in total 2735 estimates for 104 countries. We collect all estimates, their standard errors, 30 aspects of methodology, and characteristics of the countries. The average is 0.5 (0.8 for micro estimates; 0.9 for studies published in top journals). Tomas Havranek (IES, CNB) Elasticity of Intertemporal Substitution DYME, 2 June / 23
11 The Elasticity Varies Across Countries. EIS > 0.7 EIS (0.5, 0.7] EIS [0.3, 0.5] EIS [0.1, 0.3) EIS < 0.1 no data Tomas Havranek (IES, CNB) Elasticity of Intertemporal Substitution DYME, 2 June / 23
12 What Explains the Differences? Country-level variables Stock market participation: Euler equation valid for asset holders. GDP per capita: necessities hard to substitute across time periods. Credit availability: financial constraints hamper intertemporal substitution. Real interest: the elasticity does not have to be constant. Rule of law: institutions can affect financial decisions. Tomas Havranek (IES, CNB) Elasticity of Intertemporal Substitution DYME, 2 June / 23
13 The Elasticity Varies Across Methods. Bosca et al. (2006) Campbell (1999) Campbell (2003) Campbell and Mankiw (1991) Chyi and Huang (1997) Fuse (2004) Hamori (1996) Ho (2004) Ito and Noda (2012) Jimenez Martin and defrutos (2009) Kim and Ryou (2012) Koedijk and Smant (1994) Nieh and Ho (2006) Noda and Sugiyama (2010) Ogaki et al.
