title: A Model of Housing Stock for Canada
Creators: name: Dupuis, David

Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2010

description: Using an error-correction model (ECM) framework, the authors attempt to quantify the degree of disequilibrium in Canadian housing stock over the period 1961–2008 for the national aggregate and over 1981–2008 for the provinces. They find that, based on quarterly data, the level of housing stock in the long run is associated with population, real per capita disposable income, and real house prices. Population growth (net migration, particularly for the western provinces) is also an important determinant of the short-run dynamics of housing stock, after controlling for serial correlation in the dependent variable. Real mortgage rates, consumer confidence, and a number of other variables identified in the literature are found to play a small role in the short run. The authors’ model suggests that the Canadian housing stock was 2 per cent above its equilibrium level at the end of 2008. There was likely overbuilding, to varying degrees, in Saskatchewan, New Brunswick, British Columbia, Ontario, and Quebec.
description: Au moyen d'un modèle à correction d'erreurs, les auteurs tentent de quantifier le degré de déséquilibre du parc canadien de logements au cours de la période 1961-2008 à l'échelle nationale et durant la période 1981-2008 à l'échelle provinciale. Ils constatent, sur la base des données trimestrielles, que le niveau du stock de logements est fonction à long terme de celui de la population, du revenu disponible réel par habitant et des prix réels des logements. La croissance de la population (le solde migratoire, en particulier dans le cas des provinces de l'Ouest) est également un déterminant non négligeable de la dynamique de court terme du parc immobilier, une fois prise en compte l'autocorrélation de la variable dépendante. Les taux hypothécaires réels, la confiance des ménages et un certain nombre d'autres variables recensées dans la littérature jouent aussi un faible rôle à court terme. D'après le modèle des auteurs, le parc canadien de logements dépassait de 2 % son niveau d'équilibre à la fin de 2008. Il y a vraisemblablement eu surconstruction, à des degrés variables, en Saskatchewan, au Nouveau-Brunswick, en Colombie-Britannique, en Ontario et au Québec.

description: The presence of a planet around the K dwarf HD192263 was recently called into question by the detection of a periodic photometric signal with the same period as the one observed in radial velocity. In this paper, we investigate this possibility, using a combination of radial-velocity, photometry, and bisector measurements obtained simultaneously. The results show that while the observed radial-velocity variation is always very stable in phase, period, and amplitude, the photometric signal changes with time. The combined information strongly suggests that the observed radial-velocity variation is being produced by the presence of a planet, as firstly proposed. The photometric variations are either not connected to the planetary companion, or can eventually be induced by the interaction between the planet and the star. Finally, the radial-velocity data further show the presence of a long term trend, whose origin, still not clear, might be related to the presence of another companion to the system.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2010

description: This paper documents the rate at which labour flows between industries and between firms within industries using the most recent data available. It examines the determinants of these flows and their relationship with the productivity growth. It is found that the dispersion of industry employment growth rates has been elevated since 2005, and that this increase is not likely to be related to the business cycle. It is also found that changes in real exchange rates and commodity prices can account for a significant part of the employment dispersion across industries, especially since 2005. However, shifts of employment labour between industries have generally not contributed positively to aggregate labour productivity growth. With respect to movements of labour between firms within industries, it is found that the job reallocation rates have fallen steadily over the past decade and a half. Finally, unlike labour flows between industries, excess job reallocation rates within industries are found to be strongly related to multifactor productivity and labour productivity growth at the industry level.
description: Les auteurs étudient les plus récentes données disponibles sur le rythme de redistribution du travail entre les secteurs et entre les entreprises d'un même secteur. Ils analysent les déterminants des flux de main-d'oeuvre et leur relation avec la progression de la productivité. Ils notent que la dispersion des taux de croissance sectorielle de l'emploi a augmenté depuis 2005 et que cette hausse n'est vraisemblablement pas liée au cycle économique. Ils constatent également que la dispersion de l'emploi entre les secteurs pourrait tenir en grande partie aux variations des taux de change réels et des prix des matières premières, surtout depuis 2005. En général, toutefois, les déplacements de maind'oeuvre intersectoriels n'ont pas contribué positivement à la progression de la productivité globale du travail. En ce qui concerne les mouvements de main-d'oeuvre intrasectoriels, les taux de redistribution des emplois ont diminué de façon constante au cours de la dernière décennie et demie. Enfin, contrairement aux flux de main-d'oeuvre intersectoriels, les taux de redistribution excédentaire des emplois à l'intérieur des secteurs se révèlent être en relation étroite avec la croissance de la productivité multifactorielle et de la productivité du travail à l'échelle sectorielle.
Dimensioning of Elastic Adhesive Joints with Complex Geometries? – A Systematic Approach beyond ETAG 002

description: The current European standard for dimensioning silicone adhesive joints in structural glazing applications is defined in the ETAG 002. Although there are several decades of field experience with this standard it still has some major limitations and mainly uses an empirical concept based on an average force by area tension engineering approach. In addition there are a number of other restrictions for example the limitation of specific substrates and rectangular shaped joints with defined aspect ratios as well as the exclusion of joints with non-coplanar surfaces. The presented investigations are based on a combined numerical and experimental concept and demonstrate that appropriately designed elastic adhesive joints with complex geometries excluded by common standards can be evaluated and validated in a systematic and reliable way. The experimental test may easily be combined with well-established and proven aging test schemes, for which long-term reliable field experience is available. In addition any desired safety factor can be added.

title: An Assessment of the Bank of Canada's Term PRA Facility

Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2010

description: This paper empirically assesses the effectiveness of the Bank of Canada's term Purchase and Resale Agreement (PRA) facility in reducing short-term bank funding pressures, as measured by the CDOR-OIS spread. It examines the behaviour of this spread around both term PRA announcement dates and term PRA operation dates, using an event-study methodology to control for developments in other money markets (i.e., using the U.S. LIBOR-OIS spread) as well as proxies for Canadian banking sector credit risk. Overall, there is robust evidence that the term PRA announcements reduced bank funding costs at both 1-month and 3-month terms, whereas we find no evidence of an impact from term PRA operations. However, given the small number of term PRA announcements in our sample, caution should be taken in attributing the reduction in the CDOR-OIS spread solely to the term PRA announcements, since other concurrent events (including other announcements by the Bank of Canada) may have also contributed to a compression in the CDOR-OIS spread.
description: Les auteurs évaluent empiriquement l'efficacité du mécanisme de prise en pension à plus d'un jour de la Banque du Canada pour réduire les pressions sur les marchés du financement bancaire à court terme, en prenant pour mesure l'écart entre le taux CDOR et le taux des swaps indexés sur le taux à un jour. Ils analysent le comportement de l'écart autour des dates d'annonce et des dates d'exécution des opérations menées dans le cadre du mécanisme, en utilisant une approche événementielle qui permet de tenir compte de l'évolution des autres marchés monétaires (en suivant l'écart entre le taux LIBOR et le taux des swaps indexés sur le taux à un jour aux États-Unis) ainsi que des mesures approchées du risque de crédit du secteur bancaire canadien. Dans l'ensemble, les résultats montrent de façon concluante que les annonces des opérations de prise en pension à plus d'un jour ont fait diminuer les coûts de financement des banques à un mois aussi bien qu'à trois mois, alors que rien n'indique d'effet imputable à l'exécution des opérations. Comme l'échantillon ne comporte qu'un petit nombre d'annonces, toutefois, on ne saurait sans précaution attribuer à elles seules la compression de l'écart entre le taux CDOR et le taux des swaps indexés sur le taux à un jour, puisque d'autres événements survenus aux mêmes dates (y compris d'autres annonces de la Banque) peuvent également avoir contribué à cette compression.

description: Taking advantage of HST CANDELS data, we analyze the lowest redshift (z<0.5) massive galaxies in order to disentangle their structural constituents and study possible faint non-axis-symmetric features. Due to the excellent HST spatial resolution for intermediate-z objects, they are hard to model by purely automatic parametric fitting algorithms. We performed careful single and double Sérsic fits to their galaxy surface brightness profiles. We also compare the model color profiles with the observed ones and also derive multi-component global effective radii attempting to obtain a better interpretation of the mass-size relation. Additionally, we test the robustness of our measured structural parameters via simulations. We find that the Sérsic index does not offer a good proxy for the visual morphological type for our sample of massive galaxies. Our derived multi-component effective radii give a better description of the size of our sample galaxies than those inferred from single Sérsic models with GALFIT. Our galaxy population lays on the scatter of the local mass-size relation, indicating that these massive galaxies do not experience a significant growth in size since z~0.5. Interestingly the few outliers are late-type galaxies, indicating that spheroids must reach the local mass-size relation earlier. For most of our sample galaxies, both single and multi-component Sérsic models with GALFIT show substantial systematic deviations from the observed SBPs in the outskirts. These residuals may be partly due to several factors, namely a non-optimal data reduction for low surface brightness features, the existence of prominent stellar haloes for massive galaxies and could also arise from conceptual shortcomings of parametric 2D image decomposition tools. They consequently propagate into galaxy color profiles.
title: Identifying Asymmetric Comovements of International Stock Market Returns
Creators: name: Li, Fuchun
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2010

description: Based on a new approach for measuring the comovements between stock market returns, we provide a nonparametric test for asymmetric comovements in the sense that stock market downturns will lead to stronger comovements than market upturns. The test is used to detect whether asymmetric comovements exist in international stock markets. We find the following empirical facts. First, asymmetric comovements exist between the United States (U.S.) stock market and the stock markets for Canada, France, Germany, and the United Kingdom (U.K.), but the data are unable to reject the null hypothesis of the symmetric comovements between the U.S. and Japanese stock markets. Second, either a larger negative drop or a positive increase in stock prices leads to stronger comovements of stock market returns, indicating that comovements in the data are different from comovements implied by a bivariate symmetric distribution, which implies that comovements tend to zero as the market returns become more positive or more negative.
description: Proposant une nouvelle approche en matière de mesure des covariations entre les rendements boursiers, l'auteur applique un test non paramétrique en vue d'établir si les covariations entre les marchés boursiers internationaux sont asymétriques, en l'occurrence, plus prononcées en phase de baisse qu'en phase de hausse des marchés. Il fait les constats empiriques suivants. D'abord, il existe des covariations asymétriques entre le marché boursier des États-Unis et ceux du Canada, de la France, de l'Allemagne et du Royaume-Uni, mais les données ne permettent pas de rejeter l'hypothèse nulle de symétrie des covariations entre le marché boursier des États-Unis et celui du Japon. Ensuite, plus la diminution ou la montée des cours boursiers est importante, plus les covariations entre les rendements boursiers sont fortes. Ce résultat est contraire à celui qu'implique une distribution symétrique bivariée, à savoir que les covariations tendent vers zéro lorsque les rendements boursiers deviennent très positifs ou très négatifs.

description: We report a Fermi-LAT $γ$-ray analysis for the Chamaeleon molecular-cloud complex using a total column density (NH) model based on the dust optical depth at 353 GHz ($τ_{353}$) with the Planck thermal dust emission model. Gamma rays with energy from 250 MeV to 100 GeV are fitted with the NH model as a function of $τ_{353}$, NH $\propto$ $τ_{353}^{1/α}$ ($α$ $\geq$ 1.0), to explicitly take into account a possible nonlinear $τ_{353}$/NH ratio. We found that a nonlinear relation, $α$$\sim$1.4, gives the best fit to the $γ$-ray data. This nonlinear relation may indicate dust evolution effects across the different gas phases. Using the best-fit NH model, we derived the CO-to-H2 conversion factor (XCO) and gas mass, taking into account uncertainties of the NH model. The value of XCO is found to be (0.63-0.76) $\times$10$^{20}$ cm$^{-2}$ K$^{-1}$ km$^{-1}$ s, which is consistent with that of a recent $γ$-ray study of the Chamaeleon region. The total gas mass is estimated to be (6.0-7.3) $\times$ 10$^{4}$ Msun, of which the mass of additional gas not traced by standard HI or CO line surveys is 20-40%. The additional gas amounts to 30-60% of the gas mass estimated in the case of optically thin HI and has 5-7 times greater mass than the molecular gas traced by CO. Possible origins of the additional gas are discussed based on scenarios of optically thick HI and CO-dark H2. We also derived the $γ$-ray emissivity spectrum, which is consistent with the local HI emissivity derived from LAT data within the systematic uncertainty of $\sim$20%

description: We describe a technique that enables a strong, coherent coupling between isolated neutral atoms and mesoscopic conductors. The coupling is achieved by exciting atoms trapped above the surface of a superconducting transmission line into Rydberg states with large electric dipole moments, that induce voltage fluctuations in the transmission line. Using a mechanism analogous to cavity quantum electrodynamics an atomic state can be transferred to a long-lived mode of the fluctuating voltage, atoms separated by millimeters can be entangled, or the quantum state of a solid state device can be mapped onto atomic or photonic states.

description: Solidarity is one of the fundamental values at the heart of the construction of peaceful societies and present in more than one third of world's constitutions. Still, solidarity is almost never included as a principle in ethical guidelines for the development of AI. Solidarity as an AI principle (1) shares the prosperity created by AI, implementing mechanisms to redistribute the augmentation of productivity for all; and shares the burdens, making sure that AI does not increase inequality and no human is left behind. Solidarity as an AI principle (2) assesses the long term implications before developing and deploying AI systems so no groups of humans become irrelevant because of AI systems. Considering solidarity as a core principle for AI development will provide not just an human-centric but a more humanity-centric approach to AI.

Thermal Radiation from Cooling Neutron Stars

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Observations of thermal radiation from neutron stars allow one to measure the surface temperatures and confront them with cooling scenarios. Detection of gravitationally redshifted spectral lines can yield the mass-to-radius ratio. In the few cases when the distance is known, one can measure the neutron star radius, which is particularly important to constrain the equation of state of the superdense matter in the neutron star interiors. Finally, one can infer the chemical composition of the neutron star surface layers, which provides information about formation of neutron stars and their interaction with the environments. We present the observational results on thermal radiation from active pulsars and radio-quiet neutron stars, with emphasis on the results obtained with the Chandra X-ray Observatory and discuss some implications of these results. In particular, we present a new interpretation of the thermal emission detected in the broad energy range (from optical to X-rays) from the puzzling object RX J1856.5-3754

title: Liquidity Transformation and Bank Capital Requirements
Creators: name: Tomura, Hajime
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2010

description: This paper presents a dynamic general equilibrium model where asymmetric information about asset quality leads to asset illiquidity. Banking arises endogenously in this environment as banks can pool illiquid assets to average out their idiosyncratic qualities and issue liquid liabilities backed by pooled assets whose total quality is public information. Moreover, the liquidity mismatch in banks' balance sheets leads to endogenous bank capital (outside equity) requirements for preventing bank runs. The model indicates that banking has both positive and negative effects on long-run economic growth and that business-cycle dynamics of asset prices, asset illiquidity and bank capital requirements are interconnected.
description: L'auteur présente un modèle d'équilibre général dynamique dans lequel l'asymétrie de l'information relative à la qualité des actifs entraîne leur illiquidité. L'activité bancaire est générée de façon endogène : les banques peuvent regrouper les actifs illiquides de façon à ce que leurs caractéristiques idiosyncrasiques se neutralisent et émettre des passifs illiquides adossés au bloc d'actifs constitué, dont la qualité globale est connue de tous. Dans le modèle, la disparité qui existe en matière de liquidité entre les actifs et les passifs figurant au bilan des banques impose la détention de fonds propres (l'apport de capitaux extérieurs) afin de prévenir des retraits massifs de dépôts. Le modèle indique que l'activité bancaire a des effets tant positifs que négatifs sur la croissance économique à long terme et que la dynamique du cycle des prix d'actifs, l'illiquidité des actifs et le niveau requis de fonds propres sont interdépendants.

Year: 2010

description: We present a model of central bank collateralized lending to study the optimal choice of the haircut policy. We show that a lending facility provides a bundle of two types of insurance: insurance against liquidity risk as well as insurance against downside risk of the collateral. Setting a haircut therefore involves balancing the trade-off between relaxing the liquidity constraints of agents on one hand, and increasing potential inflation risk and distorting the portfolio choices of agents on the other. We argue that the optimal haircut is higher when the central bank is unable to lend exclusively to agents who actually need liquidity. Finally, for an unexpected drop in the haircut, the central bank can be more aggressive than when setting a permanent level of the haircut.
description: Les auteurs étudient la politique de décote optimale à l'aide d'un modèle formalisant l'octroi par la banque centrale de prêts contre garantie. Ils montrent qu'une facilité de prêt offre une assurance à la fois contre le risque de liquidité et contre le risque de baisse de la valeur de la garantie. L'établissement du niveau de la décote suppose donc un arbitrage entre, d'une part, le desserrement des contraintes de liquidité des agents et, d'autre part, le risque de faire augmenter l'inflation et de fausser les choix de portefeuille des agents. Les auteurs soutiennent que la décote optimale est plus élevée lorsque la banque centrale n'est pas en mesure de limiter exclusivement ses prêts aux agents qui ont réellement besoin de liquidités. Enfin, quand elle abaisse la décote de façon inattendue, la banque centrale a plus de latitude que lorsqu'elle en fixe durablement le niveau.
Edge-laminated Transparent Structural Silicone Adhesive (TSSA) Steel-to-Glass Connections

description: The connections between glass components are very critical aspects of structural glass design. Laminated steel-to-glass connections have recently been developed that combine high strength and transparency. This work focuses on the Transparent Structural Silicone Adhesive (TSSA), produced by Dow Corning. TSSA is typically used for the realization of circular point connections on the glass surface. An alternative approach of using TSSA is considered in this study, by laminating stainless steel connectors on the edge of the glass. These connections are experimentally and numerically investigated. The edge bonded specimens are tested in shear and the stress distribution of the adhesive is analyzed by means of a three-dimensional finite element model. The distribution of stresses in the adhesive is non-linear showing significant stress peaks towards the free edges of the adhesive. A parametric study is conducted to relate the magnitude of the shear stress peaks and bending stresses with the eccentricity of the applied load. The occurrence of failure at lower engineering stresses than the ones recorded for circular point connections is explained using the theory of bending-shear interaction laws. Based on these failure criteria, shear stress peaks that occur due to the eccentricity of the applied load have an important influence on the global resistance of the connection.

description: The author proposes a micro-founded framework that incorporates an active banking sector into a dynamic stochastic general-equilibrium model with a financial accelerator. He evaluates the role of the banking sector in the transmission and propagation of the real effects of aggregate shocks, and assesses the importance of financial shocks in U.S. business cycle fluctuations. The banking sector consists of two types of profitmaximizing banks that offer different banking services and transact in an interbank market. Loans are produced using interbank borrowing and bank capital subject to a regulatory capital requirement. Banks have monopoly power, set nominal deposit and prime lending rates, choose their leverage ratio and their portfolio composition, and can endogenously default on a fraction of their interbank borrowing. Because it is costly to raise capital to satisfy the regulatory capital requirement, the banking sector attenuates the real effects of financial shocks, reduces macroeconomic volatilities, and helps stabilize the economy. The model also includes two unconventional monetary policies (quantitative and qualitative easing) that reduce the negative impacts of financial crises.
description: L'auteur propose un cadre aux fondements microéconomiques qui intègre un secteur bancaire actif dans un modèle d'équilibre général dynamique et stochastique avec accélérateur financier. Il évalue le rôle du secteur bancaire dans la transmission et la propagation des effets réels des chocs globaux et estime l'importance des chocs financiers dans les fluctuations économiques aux États-Unis. Le secteur bancaire est constitué de deux catégories d'établissements qui offrent des services bancaires différents et réalisent des opérations sur un marché interbancaire en cherchant à maximiser leurs profits. Les prêts sont financés par des emprunts interbancaires et des fonds propres, sous réserve du respect d'exigences réglementaires en matière de fonds propres bancaires. Les banques sont en situation de monopole, fixent les taux nominaux applicables aux dépôts et les taux préférentiels nominaux applicables aux prêts, déterminent elles-mêmes leur ratio de levier et la composition de leur portefeuille et peuvent manquer de façon endogène à leurs obligations à l'égard d'une partie de leurs emprunts interbancaires. Étant donné que la mobilisation de fonds propres pour satisfaire aux exigences réglementaires comporte des coûts, le secteur bancaire atténue les effets réels des chocs financiers, réduit les volatilités macroéconomiques et aide à stabiliser l'économie. Le modèle intègre également deux mesures de politique monétaire non traditionnelles (l'assouplissement quantitatif et l'assouplissement direct du crédit) qui diminuent les effets négatifs des crises financières.

description: Measurements of proton NMR and the spin lattice relaxation rate 1/T1 in the octanuclear iron (III) cluster [Fe8(N3C6H15)6O2(OH)12][Br8 9H2O], in short Fe8, have been performed at 1.5 K in a powder sample aligned along the main anisotropy z axis, as a function of a transverse magnetic field (i.e., perpendicular to the main easy axis z). A big enhancement of 1/T1 is observed over a wide range of fields (2.5-5 T), which can be attributed to the tunneling dynamics; in fact, when the tunneling splitting of the pairwise degenerate m=+-10 states of the Fe8 molecule becomes equal to the proton Larmor frequency a very effective spin lattice relaxation channel for the nuclei is opened. The experimental results are explained satisfactorily by considering the distribution of tunneling splitting resulting from the distribution of the angles in the hard xy plane for the aligned powder, and the results of the direct diagonalization of the model Hamiltonian.

description: We use the Effective Field Theory (EFT) framework to compute the mass quadrupole moment, the equation of motion, and the power loss of inspiralling compact binaries at the second order in the Post-Newtonian (PN) approximation. We present expressions for the stress-energy pseudo-tensor components of the binary system in higher PN orders. The 2PN correction to the mass quadrupole moment as well as to the acceleration computed in the linearized harmonic gauge presented here are the ingredients needed for the calculation of the next-to-next-to leading order radiation reaction force, which will be presented elsewhere. While this paper reproduces known results, it supplies the building blocks necessary for future higher order calculations in the EFT methodology.

title: The Effect of Exchange Rate Movements on Heterogeneous Plants: A Quantile Regression Analysis
Creators: name: Tomlin, Ben

description: In this paper, we examine how the effect of movements in the real exchange rate on manufacturing plants depends on the plant's placement within the productivity distribution. Appreciations of the local currency expose domestic plants to more competition from abroad as export opportunities shrink and import competition intensifies. As a result, smaller less productive plants are forced from the market, which truncates the lower end of the productivity distribution. For surviving plants, appreciations can lead to a reduction in plant size, which, in the presence of scale economies, can lower productivity. We examine these mechanisms using quantile regression, which allows for the study of the conditional distribution of industry productivity. Using plant-level data that covers the entire Canadian manufacturing sector from 1984 to 1997, we find that many industries exhibit a downward sloping quantile regression curve, meaning that movements in the exchange rate do, indeed, have distributional effects on productivity.
description: Dans cette étude, nous examinons en quoi l'effet des variations du taux de change réel sur les usines manufacturières dépend de la position des usines à l'intérieur de la distribution de la productivité. Lorsque la monnaie nationale s'apprécie, les usines du pays se trouvent exposées à une concurrence accrue de l'étranger à mesure que les possibilités d'exportation diminuent et que la concurrence des importations s'intensifie. En conséquence, les petites usines peu productives sont chassées du marché, tronquant ainsi l'extrémité inférieure de la distribution de la productivité. Les mouvements d'appréciation de la monnaie peuvent amener les usines subsistantes à réduire leur taille, ce qui, en présence d'économies d'échelle, peut entraîner une baisse de la productivité. Nous examinons ces mécanismes en utilisant la régression quantile, qui permet d'étudier la distribution conditionnelle de la productivité des industries. En nous servant de données recueillies au niveau des usines dans la totalité du secteur manufacturier canadien de 1984 à 1997, nous constatons que de nombreuses industries présentent une courbe de régression quantile à pente descendante, ce qui signifie que les variations du taux de change ont bel et bien des effets distributifs sur la productivité.
title: Capital Requirement and Financial Frictions in Banking: Macroeconomic Implications
Creators: name: Dib, Ali
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada

description: The author develops a dynamic stochastic general-equilibrium model with an active banking sector, a financial accelerator, and financial frictions in the interbank and bank capital markets. He investigates the importance of banking sector frictions on business cycle fluctuations and assesses the role of a regulatory capital requirement in propagating the effects of shocks in the real economy. Bank capital is introduced to satisfy the regulatory capital requirement, and serves as collateral for borrowing in the interbank market. Financial frictions are introduced by assuming asymmetric information between lenders and borrowers that creates moral hazard and adverse selection problems in the interbank and bank capital markets, respectively. Highly leveraged banks are vulnerable and therefore pay higher costs when raising funds. The author finds that financial frictions in the interbank and bank capital markets amplify and propagate the effects of shocks; however, the capital requirement attenuates the real impacts of aggregate shocks (including financial shocks), reduces macroeconomic volatilities, and stabilizes the economy.
description: L'auteur élabore un modèle d'équilibre général dynamique et stochastique qui comporte un secteur bancaire actif, un accélérateur financier et des frictions financières sur le marché interbancaire et le marché des fonds propres bancaires. Il cherche à déterminer l'importance des frictions du secteur bancaire dans les fluctuations économiques et évalue le rôle des exigences réglementaires en matière de fonds propres dans la propagation des effets des chocs au sein de l'économie réelle. Les fonds propres bancaires sont introduits pour satisfaire aux exigences réglementaires, et ils servent de garantie d'emprunt sur le marché interbancaire. Les frictions financières sont introduites sous l'hypothèse d'une asymétrie d'information entre prêteurs et emprunteurs qui crée des problèmes d'aléa moral et d'antisélection sur le marché interbancaire et le marché des fonds propres bancaires, respectivement. Les banques à fort levier financier sont vulnérables et, par conséquent, se financent à coût plus élevé. L'auteur constate que les frictions financières sur les deux marchés amplifient et propagent les effets des chocs; par contre, les exigences en matière de fonds propres atténuent l'incidence réelle des chocs globaux (dont les chocs financiers), réduisent les volatilités macroéconomiques et stabilisent l'économie.
