The Global Financial Crisis of 2008 underlined the importance of understanding the details and mechanisms in place when two parties interact in financial markets. However, methods of international payment are largely absent from macroeconomic analysis. This paper attempts to model a small open oil-producing economy that relies on Letters of Credit (LCs) as its international payment method. The model, developed for Iran’s economy, includes producers that must import the intermediate goods they need using LCs. Simulation results from the model, estimated using the Bayesian method, show that an exogenous increase in LCs’ upfront payments leads to a recession. Moreover, the model’s dynamics following an adverse shock to oil prices or production depend on whether changes in LCs’ upfront payments are assumed to be exogenous or endogenous.
