The Existence of Equilibrium Paths in an AK-model with Endogenous Time Preferences and Borrowing Constraints

Abstract

An AK-model with borrowing constraints and endogenous time preferences is considered. It is assumed that the discount factor of a household is a continuous function of its relative income. We propose a definition of an equilibrium path and prove its existence.
