We study the implications of fiscal rules for macroeconomic stabilization when countries are hit by adverse exogenous shocks. Exploiting the unpredictability of natural disasters, we document that economies with a fiscal rule absorb these shocks better than those without: the responses of GDP and private demand are significantly higher. This difference is coupled with more expansionary fiscal policy ...

We investigate the long-term effects of the introduction of the German minimum wage in 2015 and its subsequent increases on regional employment. Using comprehensive survey data, we are able to measure the regional bite of the minimum wage in 2014, just before its introduction, as well as in 2018, before it was raised substantially in several steps. The introduction mainly affected the labour market ...

This paper proposes a new way to clarify the relationship between the sovereign-bank nexus and an individual bank’s home bias by employing stress test data from Europe’s most important banks. We use the individual bank’s likelihood to fail in achieving a minimum capital ratio threshold as the dependent variable in a cross-sectional logistic regression approach and compute marginal effects. In further ...

We study sovereign external debt crises over the past 200 years, with a focus on creditor losses, or “haircuts.” Our sample covers 327 sovereign debt restructurings with external private creditors over 205 default spells since 1815. Creditor losses vary widely (from none to 100%), but the statistical distribution has remained remarkably stable over two centuries, with an average haircut of around 45 ...

Background: Existing typologies of family relationships primarily focus on nuclear ties, often neglecting relations with extended kin. Ties to extended kin are, however, central to many people's ...
