Production and Consumption Credit in a Continuous-Time Model of the Circuit of Capital
This paper develops a formal, continuous-time model of accumulation, credit, and its allocation between production and consumption loans based on Marxs circuit of capital. If accumulation is chiefly constrained by its own ability to generate demand flows permitting the realisation of profits, all credit allocations are shown to be equally growth enhancing. But consumption credit is shown to affect adversely a series of productive, credit-risk and monetary constraints bearing upon the extension of credit. As a result, systems with higher allocations of consumption credit will generally experience a combination of lower rates of accumulation and higher levels of financial risk.
