Overview: This paper examines the propagation of monetary shocks in a two good optimizing macro model where domestic banking activity is costly and the non-tradable sector is highly dependent on domestic bank credit, as in most emerging market transmission. The model develops the bernanke-blinder “credit view” of the monetary transmission mechanism along classical lines. Thus, by using the numerical simulations, it shows that such a relative simple model goes a long way towards explaining some key “stylized facts” of recent financial crises.
