https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2019/12/staff-working-paper-2019-51/
We study how input-output networks affect the speed of technology adoption. In particular, we model the decision to adopt the programming language Python 3 by software packages. Python 3 provides advanced features but is not backward compatible with Python 2, which implies it comes with adoption costs.2019-12-23T15:39:25+00:00enTechnology Adoption in Input-Output Networks2019-12-23Economic modelsFirm dynamicsProductivityStaff Working Paper 2019-51https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/swp2019-51.pdfTechnology Adoption in Input-Output NetworksXintong HanLei XuDecember 2019CC6C61LL2L23L8L86OO1O14O3O33The Bank of Canada’s plans for 2020

We propose a macroeconomic model in which adverse selection in investment drives the amplification of macroeconomic fluctuations, in line with prominent roles played by the credit crunch and collapse of the asset-backed security market in the financial crisis.2019-07-26T12:33:44+00:00enLending Standards, Productivity and Credit Crunches2019-07-26Business fluctuations and cyclesCredit and credit aggregatesFinancial marketsFinancial stabilityInterest ratesProductivityStaff Working Paper 2019-25https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/swp2019-25.pdfLending Standards, Productivity and Credit CrunchesJonathan SwarbrickJuly 2019EE2E22E3E32E4E44GG0G01Economic Progress Report: Investing in Growth

Potential output is expected to grow on average at 1.8 per cent over 2019–21 and at 1.9 per cent in 2022. While the contribution of trend labour input to potential output growth is expected to decrease between 2019 and 2022, the contribution of trend labour productivity is projected to increase.2019-04-17T11:03:16+00:00enPotential Output in Canada: 2019 Reassessment2019-04-17Why Do Central Banks Care About Market Power?

https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2019/02/staff-working-paper-2019-7/
This paper studies optimal education subsidies when parental transfers are unequally distributed across students and cannot be publicly observed. After documenting substantial inequality in parental transfers among US college students with similar family resources, I examine its implications for how the education subsidy should vary with schooling level and family resources to minimize inefficiencies generated by borrowing constraints.2019-02-11T14:03:49+00:00enInequality in Parental Transfers, Borrowing Constraints and Optimal Higher Education Subsidies2019-02-11Fiscal policyPotential outputProductivityStaff Working Paper 2019-7https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/swp2019-7.pdfInequality in Parental Transfers, Borrowing Constraints and Optimal Higher Education SubsidiesYoungmin ParkFebruary 2019DD1D14D6D61D64D8D82II2I22JJ2J24
