Abstract The implications of status preference in a simple open economy model are investigated in this paper. The open economy is modeled as a continuum of identical representative agents who have preferences over consumption and status. In the paper status is identified as relative wealth, which takes the form of relative holdings international financial assets. A symmetric macroeconomic equilibrium is derived in which status is the source of transitional dynamics for domestic consumption and the current account balance. This result illustrates another way to combine transitional dynamics with interior equilibria in the small open economy Ramsey model with perfect capital mobility. We also show that status preference plays a critical role in influencing the open economy’s adjustment to government expenditure and world interest rate shocks.

Abstract A four-dimensional macroeconomic model of a small open economy under fixed exchange rates is investigated. The model describes the development of national income, capital stock, interest rate and money stock. Sufficient conditions for the existence of an invariant torus are given. A numerical example illustrating the gained results is presented.
