Testing for Financial Buffer Stocks in Sectoral Portfolio Models

Author

  • Owen, P Dorian

Abstract

Empirical implementation of the buffer stock money notion tends to concentrate either on the "shock absorber" aspects or the "spillover" ("disequilibrium money") aspects, but rarely combines both. Moreover, a potential buffer role for nonmoney assets is usually precluded without explicit empirical testing. This paper examines the role of financial buffers in an ex ante sectoral model of expenditure and portfolio behavior incorporating both the shock absorber and spillover aspects in terms of cross-equation parameter restrictions. These are tested for a range of different assets and liabilities using quarterly data for the U.K. personal sector. Copyright 1990 by MIT Press.
