The Nonparametric Approach to the Demand for Monetary Assets

Abstract

In Chapter 12 we showed the steps that are normally taken to reduce a very general consumer choice problem to a monetary asset choice problem. At this point, we are prepared to proceed and develop the microeconomic- and aggregation-theoretic literature on the demand for money and monetary assets. This is achieved by conducting the analysis within a microtheoretical framework, making use of a number of theoretical advances in a set of related theories — revealed preference, index numbers, duality, separability, and demand systems.
