Trade Between Similar Countries: The Role of Credit Market Imperfection
Sugata Marjit
MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany
Abstract:
We build up a simple Ricardian trade model with imperfection in the market for credit which affects the pattern of production. Workers/entrepreneurs are endowed with different levels “capital” and need to borrow to produce the credit intensive good. We argue that in such a framework identical countries will gain from trade without the assumption of comparative advantage.
