Higher Seminar in Economics | Technology Neutral versus Technology Specific Procurement

2021-04-28, 15:30 - 16:45
An imperfectly informed regulator needs to procure multiple units of a good that can be produced with heterogeneous technologies at various costs. How should she procure these units? Should she run technology-specific or technology-neutral auctions? Should she allow for partial separation across technologies? Should she instead post separate prices for each technology? What are the trade-offs involved? Natalia Fabra, Professor of Economics at Universidad Carlos III de Madrid explores these questions in the seminar "Technology Neutral versus Technology Specific Procurement" (with Juan Pablo Montero). This is an online seminar which will take place via Zoom.

Higher Seminar in Economics: The End of Privilege

2021-04-14, 15:30 - 16:45
Department of Economics is welcoming you to online seminar with Jonathan Heathcote, Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis, presenting "The End of Privilege". The US net foreign asset position has deteriorated sharply in the past decade, and now stands at an unprecedented negative 65 percent of US GDP. What has driven this decline, and what are the welfare consequences for US households? We show that new borrowing accounts for only a small share of the decline, while the majority reflects revaluation of large gross positions. In particular, the US has large equity and FDI liabilities, and the sharp runup in US asset values over the past decade has inflated the value of these liabilities. This is an online seminar which will take place via Zoom.
