🔔New Julia package for structural estimation 🔔

Zoltán Rácz and I have released an open-source Julia package designed to make structural estimation in economic research faster, easier, and more flexible. 🧵👇

Check out our updated paper on portfolio choices over the wealth distribution!
@SHouseofFinance

[Markus Kondziella @MKondziella]

🔔Paper update (with @gualtiazza & Zoltán Rácz)🔔 We develop a model that endogenously generates a joint distribution of wealth and portfolio choices in line with administrative data. Risk-taking increases with wealth due to endogenous sorting of heterogeneous agents. Short🧵

Many countries want to decarbonize their economies. Eg, the US aims to be net zero by 2050. Given this target: What is the optimal transition path? What are the main drivers and economic implications? Our JMC Stefan Hinkelmann @s_hinkelmann tackles these questions in his JMP.
