Explore the intricate model of financial instability with empirical data analysis in the context of the global financial crisis. Follow the financial instability hypothesis to comprehend the dynamics of capitalism through a comprehensive monetary system model, integrating concepts of Ponzi finance, Minsky, and the Circuit. Delve into differential equations, algebraic relations, and cyclical growth patterns to simulate the impact of variables like output, wages, employment rate, and debt on the economic system.

  1. Behavioural Finance Lecture 12 Part 2 The Global Financial Crisis Empirical Data & Modelling

  2. Modelling financial instability Financial Instability Hypothesis only theory that makes sense of this data Model in previous lecture Had only implicit money Omitted Ponzi Finance Omitted role of deflation This lecture Model with Ponzi finance Combining Minsky and the Circuit Full monetary model of capitalism

  3. Modelling financial instability Firstly: last week s Goodwin model in equations Causal chain: capital determines output K v Y a Y Output determines employment L Employment rate determines rate of change of wage (Phillips curve PH) L N 1 w dt d P w H Wages (w.L) determine profit w L Y d dt ( ) Profit determines investment = rate of change of capital Population growth & technical change drive the system: I K K 1 a dt d 1 N dt d = = a ; N

  4. Modelling financial instability dY dt dw dt da dt dN dt I System has 4 differential equations : Some calculus needed to work out other terms: = g Y Growth rate: ( ) = Wage level: P w H = Productivity: a = Population: N ( ) 1 Y dt d 1 K v d K dt v 1 K dt d 1 K ( ) ( ) r = = = = = g Y K I Y K r v Full system is

  5. Modelling financial instability 4 differential equations & 7 algebraic relations System States Real growth rate Algebraic Relations d d d d g t ( ) Y t ( ) t ( ) 0 ( ) 0 Y t ( ) Y 0 ( ) Y0 Y t ( ) W t ( ) t PH t ( ) ) w t ( ) w t ( ) L t ( ) Real wage w t ( ) ( w 0 ( ) w0 W t ( ) W 0 ( ) W0 t Y t ( ) a t ( ) L t ( ) N t ( ) w t ( ) a t ( ) Productivity Population d d d d a t ( ) a t ( ) a 0 ( ) a0 L t ( ) L 0 ( ) L0 t N t ( ) t ( ) 0 ( ) 0 N t ( ) N 0 ( ) N0 t t ( ) 0 ( ) 0 t ( ) v Y t ( ) ( rt ( ) r0 ( ) r0 ) I rt ( ) v g t ( ) g 0 ( ) g0 Simulating this, gives same cyclical pattern as last week s systems engineering model

  6. Modelling financial instability Cyclical growth Output Limit cycle in wages & employment Cycles in employment and wages 6000 110 100 4000 Real output 90 80 2000 70 Employment Rate % Wages share % 0 0 20 40 60 80 100 60 Income & Employment Limit Cycle 0 20 40 60 80 100 Year 1.1 Years Then add in debt Wages Share of Output 1 0.9 0.8 0.7 0.6 0.8 0.85 0.9 0.95 1 1.05 Employment Rate

  7. Modelling financial instability Firms borrow when desired investment exceeds profits: Change in debt: dD dt Profit now net of interest payments Y W r D = A new system state: debt to GDP ratio Very different dynamics but stable system 110 = I D Y = d Employment vs wages share 110 100 100 Wages share % 90 90 80 80 70 70 60 80 85 90 95 100 105 60 0 20 40 60 80 100 Employment Rate % Employment % Wages share %

  8. Modelling financial instability Now add in Ponzi Finance Borrowing $ to speculate on rising asset prices Adds to debt without adding to productive capital Modelled as a function of rate of economic growth Higher rate of growth, higher level of speculation 1 Ponzi Finance: Y dt dP ( ) g = Aggregate debt now includes Ponzi Finance Change in debt: dD = + I P dt

  9. Modelling financial instability Now a six-dimensional model: System States Algebraic Relations d d d d g t ( ) Y t ( ) t ( ) r t ( ) D t ( ) ( 0 ( ) 0 Y t ( ) Y 0 ( ) Y0 Y t ( ) W t ( ) ) t PH t ( ) ) w t ( ) w t ( ) L t ( ) w t ( ) ( w 0 ( ) w0 W t ( ) ( ) W 0 ( ) W0 t Y t ( ) a t ( ) L t ( ) L 0 ( ) L0 d d a t ( ) a t ( ) a 0 ( ) a0 t L t ( ) N t ( ) t ( ) 0 ( ) 0 d d N t ( ) N t ( ) N 0 ( ) N0 t W t ( ) Y t ( ) Debt dynamics t ( ) 0 ( ) 0 ( )Y t ( ) d d I rt ( ) t ( ) + D t ( ) P t ( ) D 0 ( ) D0 t t ( ) v Y t ( ) ( D t ( ) Y t ( ) rt ( ) r0 ( ) r0 Ponzi finance d d Ponzi g t ( ) P t ( ) ( ) Y t ( ) P 0 ( ) P 0 t ) g 0 ( ) g0 I rt ( ) v g t ( ) Very different dynamics With Ponzi switch set to zero, same as before With Ponzi on d t ( ) d 0 ( ) d0

  10. Modelling financial instability Dynamics Borrow money to finance investment during a boom Repay some of it during a slump Debt/ Income ratio rises in series of booms/busts Eventually one boom where debt accumulation passes point of no return Real Output Employment Rate 1500 No Speculation Ponzi Finance 100 1000 Per cent 90 500 80 No Speculation Ponzi Finance 70 0 10 20 30 40 50 0 0 10 20 30 40 50 Years Employment & Income Distribution 120 No Speculation Ponzi Finance Wages per cent of Output 100 80 60 40 70 80 90 100 Employment Rate per cent

Can summarise model s equations in 4 stylised facts Employment rises if growth exceeds productivity + population increase Wages share grows if wage rises exceed productivity Bank lend money to finance investment & speculation Speculation rises when growth rises Same model in flowchart form (with different parameters)

  24. Are We It Yet? My expectation: best outcome of government policy alone will be Japanese Stalemate Government monetary injections neutralise private sector deleveraging Outcome Turning Japanese : Long-term stagnation and borderline deflation Need debt abolition & real financial reform Cancel debts that should never have been issued Cauterise financial sector in the process Reform assets to minimise chance of future bubbles Shares on secondary market expire in 30 years Property leverage limited to 10 times annual rental
