Abstract

[fre] Dans le cadre d'un modèle de croissance endogène fondé sur l'innovation, cet article compare deux modes de financement de l'économie. Dans un cas, le finan­cement est assuré par une multitude de petits prêteurs, dans l'autre, une seule grande banque fournit l'ensemble des prêts. Il existe deux types de projets d'inno­vation, un de court terme et un de long terme, et deux types d'innovateurs, cer­tains étant efficaces et d'autres non. Le mode de financement par petits prêteurs conduit à écarter les projets d'innovation de long terme, même lorsqu'ils sont pro­fitables, pour privilégier les projets de court terme. À l'inverse, un financement centralisé favorise la réalisation des projets de long terme. Sous certaines condi­tions, les économies à système financier centralisé croissent plus vite que les autres. [eng] Financial systems and growth : the effects of 'short-termism. . This article compares two types of financial systems in the framework of an innovation-based endogenous growth model. In one case, the financial system is represented by a very large numer of small lenders. In another case, one large bank supplies all loans. There are two types of innovation projects, one is a long term project, the other one is short term. There are two types of innovators, the efficient and the inefficient. The financial system based on small lenders leads to the rejection of long term innovation projects, whatever their profitability, in favour of short term projects. On the contrary, a centralised financial system favours long term projects. Under certain conditions, economies with centralised financial systems grow faster than others.
