摘要
We estimate a microeconomic model of household asset demands that allows for the fact that households typically have zero holdings of most assets. The adjustments for non-observed heterogeneity generalize methods developed by Dubin and McFadden (1984. Econometrica 52, 345-362). Simulating our model using a random sample of US households, we examine distributional and demographic effects on macroeconomic demands for money, stocks and bonds. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science S.A.
