Figure 6. Comparison of dynamics under the first-best and the second-best (SB) contract for probabilities of contract enforcement rho in {0.80, 0.85, 0.90, 0.95, 1.00}, with initial total funding set to 8% of the first-best level in 2015. Author's own elaboration.
The author does not numerically solve the full Bellman problem in this repository because a global solution is computationally intensive and highly sensitive to grid construction and interpolation choices. Nevertheless, a full-solution implementation can reproduce the patterns shown in Figure 6.
