Endogenous incomplete markets, enforcement constraints, and intermediation
在包含内生生产、总体风险和竞争性中介的模型中，证明通过同时限制中介的资本持有上限，可以实现内生债务约束下的分散化均衡，解决了资本积累下原有方法失效的问题。
Alvarez and Jermann (2000) show that the constrained efficient allocations of en-dowment economies with imperfect risk sharing due to limited commitment can be decentralized as competitive equilibria with endogenous debt constraints that are not too tight. These are the loosest possible borrowing limits that do not al-low for default in equilibrium. However, such a decentralization is not possible in the presence of capital accumulation, since changes in the aggregate capital also affect the incentives to default. In a model with endogenous production, aggre-gate risk, and competitive intermediaries, we show that a decentralization with endogenous debt constraints is possible if one also imposes an upper limit on the intermediaries ’ capital holdings.
