The French economy seen through the lens of an empirical Stock-Flow model

ABSTRACT
We set up an empirical stock-flow consistent model for France for the longest time span possible (1980-2017) based on official consolidated data. The structure of the system of equations is consistent with national and financial accounts, and follows the basic stock-flow principles in the spirit of Tobin (1982) and Godley and Lavoie (2007). The model distinguishes 5 institutional sectors, contains watertight accounting for non-financial transactions and flow of funds, as well as explicit dynamics for over 250 equations up to this point. Preliminary scenarios on fiscal and monetary policy are discussed, which show the impact of these shocks on several relevant macroeconomic variables..
