This paper extends the New Keynesian model of a stochastic dynamic general equilibrium (DSGE) for the Iran economy in three context of an open economy, consider a financial frictions and frictions labor market, the impact of financial shocks (financial wealth shock, interest rates shock and investment-specific shock) with financial frictions on the labor market fluctuations are examined. The results indicate that financial frictions play an important role in influencing this shocks on the labor market fluctuations.
