In the first chapter, the relationships in question are supply-chain linkages between firms. I build a tractable model of buyer-supplier relationship formation, where linkages are timeconsuming to create, and possibly difficult to replace if lost. In steady state, I exhibit a novel trade-off: firms’ forward-looking considerations about supply chain fragility and growth potential may sometimes dissuade them from forming matches with the highest current profit. The second chapter expands the framework to study the macroeconomic dynamics of a large-scale supply chain disturbance. To be able to solve larger versions of the model, I develop a new simulation-based solution method. The final chapter examines the relationship between banks and their borrowers. It shows that a long-lasting period of expansionary monetary policy may amplify banks’ incentives to “evergreen” loans to unviable borrowers.Esta tesis consta de tres capítulos sobre macroeconomía teórica, examinando las consecuencias de las relaciones a largo plazo entre agentes económicos. En el primer capítulo, se analizan las relaciones de cadena de suministro entre empresas. Se construye un modelo de formación de relaciones comprador-proveedor, donde se toma tiempo para crear enlaces o reemplazarlos si se pierden. En estado estacionario, se exhibe un nuevo trade-off: las consideraciones a futuro de las empresas pueden disuadirlos de formar asociaciones con la mayor profitabilidad actual. El segundo capítulo amplía el modelo para estudiar la dinámica macroeconómica de una perturbación de cadenas de suministro a gran escala. Para resolver versiones más complicadas del modelo, desarrollo un nuevo método de solución. El capítulo final examina la relación entre bancos y sus prestatarios, mostrando que un período prolongado de política monetaria expansiva puede amplificar los incentivos de los bancos para renovar préstamos a prestatarios inviables.Programa de Doctorat en Economia, Finances i EmpresaUniversitat Pompeu FabraBaley, IsaacSchaal, EdouardUniversitat Pompeu Fabra.
