The economics of debt clearing mechanisms
We examine the evolution of decentralized clearinghouse mechanisms from the
13th to the 18th century; in particular, we explore the clearing of non- or
limitedtradable debts like bills of exchange. We construct a theoretical model
of these clearinghouse mechanisms, similar to the models in the theoretical
matching literature, and show that specific decentralized multilateral
clearing algorithms known as rescontre, skontrieren or virement des parties
used by merchants were efficient in specific historical contexts. We can
explain both the evolutionary self-organizing emergence of late medieval and
early modern fairs, and its robustness during the 17th and 18th century
