    Monetary policy has implicit redistribution effects for households when households are different. This changes the aggregate consumption response to interest rate changes. This paper is the first to estimate the magnitude of redistributionary channels of monetary policy in the euro area. When households have heterogeneous MPCs and balance sheets, three redistributionary channels amend the standard consumption response to monetary policy - an earnings heterogeneity channel, an inflation-driven Fischer channel and a real interest rate channel. I construct a new dataset combining the ECB HFCS and the Eurostat HBS to obtain a representative euro area dataset with detailed information on household balance sheets and consumption. I use a unique question in the HFCS to calculate the sufficient statistics necessary to evaluate these redistribution channels. For the euro area the three redistribution channels enhance monetary policy - the effects of one time expansionary monetary policy shocks in stimulating consumption are stronger than in models without heterogeneity. In the euro area, a 1 percent decrease in the real interest rate redistributes wealth from creditors to debtors, and creates further income and price effects. This increases aggregate consumption through unequal exposure to interest rate changes, the price level and earnings respectively by 9 basis points, 7 basis points and another 2 basis points. Redistribution amplifies the monetary policy change and makes the aggregate consumption response 15 percent higher. The relative power of different channels of monetary policy is revised from the standard model - the redistribution channel with household heterogeneity makes up 14 percent of the total consumption response, while the aggregate demand and the substitution channel amount to respectively 53 and 33 percent. When households earnings react unequally to GDP changes, as estimated in the data, their heterogeneous individual earnings elasticities enhance this effect further and the share of the redistribution channel of earnings heterogeneity increases to between 20 and 27 percent. With heterogenous earnings elasticities redistribution amplifies the effects of monetary policy by up to 37 percent.

    This paper aims to test the microfoundations of consumption models and quantify the macro implications of heterogeneity in consumption behavior. We propose a new empirical method to estimate the sensitivity of consumption to permanent and transitory income shocks for different groups of households. We then apply this method to administrative data from Denmark. The large sample size, along with detailed household balance sheet information, allows us to finely divide the population along relevant dimensions. For example, we find that households who stand to lose from an interest rate hike are significantly more sensitive to income shocks than those who stand to gain. Following a 1 percentage point rate increase, we estimate consumption will decrease by 26 basis points through this interest rate exposure channel alone, making it substantially larger than the intertemporal substitution channel that dominates in representative agent New Keynesian models.

    This paper asks whether income mobility in South Africa over the last decade has indeed been as impressive as currently thought. Using new national panel data (NIDS), substantial measurement error in reported income data is found, which is further corroborated by a provincial income data panel (KIDS). By employing an instrumental variables approach using two different instruments, measurement error can be quantified. Specifically, self-reported income in the survey data is shown to suffer from mean-reverting measurement bias, leading to sizable overestimations of income convergence in both panel data sets. The preferred estimates indicate that previously published income dynamics may have been largely overestimated by as much as 77% for the national NIDS panel and 39% for the provincial KIDS panel. Overall, income mobility appears much smaller than previously thought, while chronic poverty remains substantial and transitory poverty is still very limited in South Africa.
