3 Overview – Before We Start
Some Helpful Macroeconomics Concepts Overview Background What is happening Why is this happening How Is Jin Solving These Problems Framework Analysis Key Factors in the Model The Composition Effect Quantitative Analysis Summary Balance of payments measures all of a country’s transactions with its partner. Current account is one of the two components of a country’s balance of payments, the other being the capital account. Current account consists of the balance of trade, net primary income (net earnings on foreign investments). 𝐶 𝐴 𝑡 =𝑁𝑒𝑡 𝐹𝑜𝑟𝑒𝑖𝑔𝑛 𝐴𝑠𝑠𝑒 𝑡 𝑡 −𝑁𝑒𝑡 𝐹𝑜𝑟𝑒𝑖𝑔𝑛 𝐴𝑠𝑠𝑒 𝑡 𝑡−1 Current Account and Balance of Payments International Capital Flow Convergence effect, also known as the catch-up effect), is the idea that developed countries face diminishing return to capital so that capital will flow from these countries to developing countries. Neoclassical growth theory predicts an increase in the labor force/productivity will leads to a net capital inflow.

Background – What Is Happening Right Now? Mismatch Between Traditional Theory and Reality Overview Background What is happening Why is this happening How Is Jin Solving These Problems Framework Analysis Key Factors in the Model The Composition Effect Quantitative Analysis Summary Introduction Background This paper tries to fix this problem! Classical Macro Theory Reality Increase in the labor-force or labor productivity in a country induce a net capital inflow Capital flow from developed countries to developing countries “Convergence” effect, which channels capital toward where the effective capital- labor ratio is lower Trade and financial integration and rapid labor force and labor productivity growth in emerging markets lead to a net capital outflow for these markets Capital flows from emerging markets to capital-intensive markets “Composition” effect, which offsets the “Convergence” effect

Where Neoclassical Theory Fails Overview Background What is happening Why is this happening How Is Jin Solving These Problems Framework Analysis Key Factors in the Model The Composition Effect Quantitative Analysis Summary Introduction Background Problematic theories we are using right now Inaccurate Standard Open-economy Models Untenable Underlying Assumption Missing Influence of Macro Dynamics Unaddressed Composition Effect The standard models are the one-good or two-good stochastic growth models of large open economies. These models do not account for factor-proportions trade. Also, their overlapping generations structure are not essential. Standard open-economy models predict net capital inflow into developing countries, which is the opposite of what is happening. This is caused by the fact that they assume that countries cannot engage in intra-temporal commodity trade but only in intertemporal trade. However, large scale forces can alter a country’s structure of trade. Currently, models do not examine the impact of convergence effect and composition effect separately. Such models cannot explain the fact that capital are flowing from emerging markets to economies that become more specialized in capital-intensive sectors. “The conventional analyses of international macroeconomic dynamics on the structure of trade as well as the aggregate feedback effects of trade pattern” while “their interaction can be crucial in determining the global allocation of capital”.

7 How is Jin Addressing this Problem
Background – How Is Jin Solving These Problems? (1/2) Upgrading the model Overview Background What is happening Why is this happening How Is Jin Solving These Problems Framework Analysis Key Factors in the Model The Composition Effect Quantitative Analysis Summary Introduction Background How is Jin Addressing this Problem Developing a stochastic two-country overlapping generations model with production and capital accumulation. Multiple tradable sectors that differ in factor intensity are incorporated to capture factor-proportions-based trade, and financial capital is allowed to flow across borders. Isolate the convergence effect and the composition effect. Analytical tractability. Closed-form solutions can be found. Inaccurate model The standard open-economy are the one-good or two- good stochastic growth models of large open economies that do not address factor-proportions trade. Current models cannot address the impact of the composition effect.

Background – How Is Jin Solving These Problems? (2/2) Addressing the Composition Effect Overview Background What is happening Why is this happening How Is Jin Solving These Problems Framework Analysis Key Factors in the Model The Composition Effect Quantitative Analysis Summary Introduction Background How is Jin Addressing this Problem Convergence effect and composition effect coexist. In the integrated framework it’s possible to isolate the convergence effect and the composition effect to examine their disparate impact on capital flows. In the special case, in which the most labor- intensive sector uses only labor as an input to production, isolates the composition effect. Additional assumption is needed to provide closed-form solution under two- country stochastic growth model. Missing Composition Effect The convergence effect and the composition effect co-exist and their combined force determine the tide of capital flow. Current theory focuses only on the standard convergence effect.

Analysis – Key Factors in the Model (2/13) Part I – Production Technologies Overview Background What is happening Why is this happening How Is Jin Solving These Problems Framework Analysis Key Factors in the Model The Composition Effect Quantitative Analysis Summary Introduction Background Production Technologies Because all goods can be traded freely, the law of one price holds for all intermediate goods, and their prices can be donated as 𝑝 𝑖𝑡 . Since preferences are symmetric across countries, its associated investment price index is 𝑃 𝑡 = 𝑖=1 𝑚 𝛾 𝑖 𝑝 𝑖𝑡 1−𝜃 −𝜃 Which is normalized to 1 for simplicity. Then, we have the capital used in producing goods 𝑖 in country 𝑗 augmented by 𝐼 𝑖𝑡 𝑗 and 𝐾 𝑖𝑡 𝑗 . The law of motion for 𝐾 is given by 𝐾 𝑖,𝑡+1 𝑗 =𝐺 𝐾 𝑖𝑡 𝑗 , 𝐼 𝑖𝑡 𝐽 , where 𝐺() is nondecreasing and linearly homogeneous in 𝐾 & 𝐼 𝐾 𝑖,𝑡+1 𝑗 =𝑎 𝐼 𝑖𝑡 𝑗 𝜙 𝐾 𝑖𝑡 𝑗 1−𝜙 Where 𝜙~ 0,1 & 𝑎 is greater than 0.

Our log-linear model and standard model are equivalent up to the second order. Now, let 𝑞 𝑖𝑡 𝑗 be the price of capital. It is the price, in term of the composite good, of acquiring one unit of capital at the end of the current period to be carried into the next period; it is also the additional 𝐼 𝑖𝑡 𝑗 needed to augment 𝐾 𝑖,𝑡+1 𝑗 by one unit.

Ultimately, we also want to know the rate of return to capital. By breaking down return into rental earned, which is ∝ 𝑖 𝑝 𝑖𝑡 𝑌 𝑖𝑡 𝑗 / 𝐾 𝑖𝑡 𝑗 , and rental earned in the capital adjustment process, which is the marginal contribution of capital in augmenting capital stock for use in the next period times relative price of capital, ⅆ 𝐾 𝑡+1 𝑗 ⅆ 𝐾 𝑖 𝑗 𝑞 𝑖𝑡 .

LEMMA 1: The share of global investment allocated to industry is a constant where, 𝜇 𝑖 =( 𝛾 𝑖 𝛼 𝑖 )/( 𝑘=1 𝑚 𝛾 𝑘 𝛼 𝑘 ) ∀𝑡 The greater 𝛾 𝑖 & 𝛼 𝑖 , the greater investment in industry level.

Analysis – Key Factors in the Model (12/13) Part IV – Equilibrium Overview Background What is happening Why is this happening How Is Jin Solving These Problems Framework Analysis Key Factors in the Model The Composition Effect Quantitative Analysis Summary Introduction Background Country’s share of global investment can be written as 𝐼 𝑡 𝑗 = 𝜂 𝑡 𝑗 𝐼 𝑡 𝑔 , where, 𝜂 𝑡 𝑗 = 𝑖=1 𝑚 𝜇 𝑖 𝜂 𝑖𝑡 𝑗 = 𝑖=1 𝑚 𝛾 𝑖 𝛼 𝑖 𝑠 𝑘 𝜂 𝑖𝑡 𝑗 Where 𝑠 𝑘 is the weighted-average capital share. Investment is not only associated with the size of its expected relative production, captured by 𝜂 𝑖𝑡 𝑗 , but also with its composition of production. The higher 𝛼 𝑖 is put on the expected share of future capital-intensive-goods production, the less weight is put on its expected share of labor-intensive-goods production. By contrast, in the one-sector model, 𝜂 𝑡 𝑗 is country’s expected present-discounted value of its share of the only good produced globally. A positive, permanent, technology or lobar shock in Foreign, which effectively increases Foreign’s share of global production, would cause a large drop in Home’s share of investment.

Other solutions Overview Background What is happening Why is this happening How Is Jin Solving These Problems Framework Analysis Key Factors in the Model The Composition Effect Quantitative Analysis Summary Introduction Background Another way to understand allocation of saving across countries is by analyzing a country’s supply of saving relative to tis demand for investment. Author shows that because the young who work and earn labor income are the savers in the economy, a country’s supply of savings derives from its capacity to generate labor income. That said, country’s saving to GDP ration at anytime depends on its relative capital-labor ratio. Since, 𝑊 𝑡 𝑗 𝐺𝑃 𝐷 𝑡 𝑗 = 1 𝑘 𝑡 𝑗 𝑠 𝑘 𝑠 𝑙 + 𝛽 1−𝜙 1+𝛽 +1 Then, 𝑆 𝑡 𝑦,𝑗 𝐺𝑃 𝐷 𝑡 𝑗 = 𝛽/(1+𝛽) 𝑘 𝑡 𝑗 𝑠 𝑘 𝑠 𝑙 + 𝛽 1−𝜙 1+𝛽 +1 And, 𝐼 𝑡 𝑗 /𝜙 𝐺𝑃 𝐷 𝑡 𝑗 = 𝑘 𝑡 𝑗 𝛽/(1+𝛽) 𝑘 𝑡 𝑗 𝑠 𝑘 𝑠 𝑙 + 𝛽 1−𝜙 1+𝛽 +1

And then use that framework to examine two important global events in the past. She examines what the almost-simultaneous advent of emerging economies implies for international capital flows. Also, increasing labor force in emerging market will have its impact on the current account with the help of factor-proportions trade.
