In this paper we present and discuss a simple financial accelerator agent-based model, whose conceptual core is the interaction of heterogeneous firms and the banking system. Its simplicity notwithstanding, the model is able to replicate through simulations a large number of stylized facts concerning the shape and evolution over time of the distribution of firms' sizes, growth rates, profits, and “bad debt.”

Abstract
In this paper we present and discuss a simple financial accelerator agent-based model, whose conceptual core is the interaction of heterogeneous firms and the banking system. Its simplicity notwithstanding, the model is able to replicate through simulations a large number of stylized facts concerning the shape and evolution over time of the distribution of firms' sizes, growth rates, profits, and “bad debt.”File in questo prodotto:
