Abstract

This paper analyzes the effects of aggregate productivity shocks on intertemporal decisionmaking of risk averse agents. We focus especially on the consequences for long-run growth. We demonstrate that not only the degree of risk aversion but also the source of income is crucial for the impact of the stochastic disturbances. In the presence of a pure capital risk, growth effects are different from those arising when agents are subject to capital and income risk.
