| Summary: | Thesis: Ph. D., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Sloan School of Management, 2015. === Cataloged from PDF version of thesis. === Includes bibliographical references. === This thesis consists of three chapters on debt markets. In chapter 1, I consider the interaction between domestic banking and growth in a DSGE model of sovereign default in order to address (i) the joint existence of sovereign debt and international reserves, and (ii) the occurrence of twin (domestic banking and sovereign default) crises. In chapter 2, joint with Hui Chen and Jun Yang, we build a structural model to explain corporate debt maturity dynamics over the business cycle and their implications for the term structure of credit spreads. In chapter 3, joint with Juan Passadore, we study debt policy of emerging economies accounting for credit and liquidity risk. === by Yu Xu. === Ph. D.
