Abstract

We develop a dynamic general equilibrium macroeconomic model where a proportion of firms are credit constrained due to asymmetric information. In general, a macroeconomic shock has additional effects created by a reallocation of funds between credit-constrained and unconstrained firms. We show, however, that the output response to shocks is not necessarily amplified and can be dampened by the presence of asymmetric information.
