  • Descrição: The goal of this dissertation is to investigate the relationship between consumption and credit through a dynamic structural model. With impatient consumers and low income volatility, the dependence of consumption to consumer credit is a proxy of credit supply, opposing the usual interpretation. In this case, deregulation on credit markets would enhance the predictive power of consumer credit. However, with less impatient consumers and increased income volatility, more credit supply reduce the dependence of consumption to consumer credit. This theoretical evidence shows that there is ambiguity in interpreting the predictability of aggregate consumption, and understanding dependence of consumption to credit as a measure of credit constraints might be misleading.
