Consumption, government spending, and the real exchange rate

Using panel structural VAR analysis and quarterly data from four industrialized countries, we document that an increase in government purchases raises output and private consumption, deteriorates the trade balance, and depreciates the real exchange rate.

description Using panel structural VAR analysis and quarterly data from four industrialized countries, we document that an increase in government purchases raises output and private consumption, deteriorates the trade balance, and depreciates the real exchange rate. This pattern of comovement poses a puzzle for both neoclassical and Keynesian models. An explanation based on the deep-habit mechanism is proposed. An estimated two-country model with deep-habits is shown to replicate well the observed responses of output, consumption, and the trade balance, and the initial response of the real exchange rate to an estimated government spending shock. ► Cross-country panel VAR estimation of effects of governments spending shocks. ► Government spending increases raise output and private consumption. ► Government spending increases depreciate the real exchange rate. ► A deep-habit model for the international transmission of government spending shocks. ► Model explains the rise in consumption and depreciation of the real exchange rate.
