Abstract

In a world economy of overlapping generations with multiple countries, a competitive equilibrium need not satisfy the condition that the balance of payments be in equilibrium. The requirement that, in addition to market clearing, a balance–of–payments equilibrium condition be satisfied selects Pareto–optimal allocations and guarantees the determinacy of equilibrium.
