Abstract
⺠We develop a medium-scale DSGE model for fiscal policy simulations. ⺠It features a two-country monetary union structure and equilibrium unemployment. ⺠We provide a notable degree of disaggregation on the fiscal expenditures side. ⺠Fiscal consolidation is the least damaging when reducing the public sector wages. ⺠It is most damaging when carried out by cutting public investment.
