Why do import prices respond so little to exchange-rate shocks?
New evidence from production networks: exporters with bilateral market power tend to invoice in the importer’s currency, suppressing exchange-rate pass-through. @TUDarmstadt @UniBasel @bse_barcelona @SNB_BNS

Supply chains that rely on more specialized inputs are more productive, but less resilient to disruptions.
So how do firms decide how much to specialize? And should policymakers care?
@aferrari0 and I study these questions in our new CEPR working paper.

🚨 Forthcoming in Econometrica!
How does trade liberalization affect developing countries with large informal sectors?
Informality fundamentally changes how we think about the gains from trade. (1/5)
Feb 2
In settings with high informality, the gains from trade are significantly amplified by reductions in misallocation. During economic downturns, the informal sector acts as a buffer against unemployment but leads to larger aggregate real-income losses. econometricsociety.org/publi…
