How much Keynes and how much Schumpeter? An Estimated Macromodel for the US Economy
JRC Working Papers in Economics and Finance, 2017/1
The macroeconomic experience of the last decade stressed the importance of jointly studying the growth and
business cycle fluctuations behavior of the economy. To analyze this issue, we embed a model of Schumpeterian
growth into an estimated medium-scale DSGE model. Results from a Bayesian estimation suggest that investment
risk premia are a key driver of the slump following the Great Recession. Endogenous innovation dynamics
amplifies financial crises and helps explain the slow recovery. Moreover, financial conditions also account for a
substantial share of R&D investment dynamics.
