“A Model of Adjustment and Growth

Author

Listed:
  • Reinhart, Carmen

Abstract

A model that merges the monetary approach to the balance of payments and a neoclassical growth model into a unified framework in which inflation, growth, and the balance of payments are simultaneously determined and estimated. The tradeoff between the simplifying assumtions of the model and its ability to fit reality is assessed in terms of a diverse sample of developing countries for which the key parameters of the model are estimated.
