Ramsey Problem with Two or More Social Planners

Hello, I’m trying to solve an Open Economy model with optimal Ramsey policy.
I want to compare cooperative versus strategic schemes. For that, there are cases where I
have more than one planner objective function (one per country each with its instrument).

Can I have multiple planner functions and solve the model? and if so, how should I state it?.
I was declaring the functions as follows:

//Nash
// Objective function and discount factor

//home
planner_objective C^(1-eta)/(1-eta) + a*G^(1-phi)/(1-phi) ;
ramsey_model(instruments=(TAU), planner_discount=beta);

//foreign
planner_objective Cf^(1-eta)/(1-eta) + a*Gf^(1-phi)/(1-phi) ;
ramsey_model(instruments=(TAUf), planner_discount=beta);

However, I’m not getting a solution, just an error. (Error using print_info (line 54)
One of the eigenvalues is close to 0/0 (the absolute value of numerator and
denominator is smaller than 1e-06!)

On the other hand, the Cooperative case runs without problem:

//Coop:
planner_objective 1/2*(C^(1-eta)/(1-eta) + a*G^(1-phi)/(1-phi)) + 1/2 * (Cf^(1-eta)/(1-eta) + a*Gf^(1-phi)/(1-phi)) ;
ramsey_model(instruments=(TAU, TAUf), planner_discount=beta);

Thanks in advance for any reply!

_*this model is just a trivial extension of the closed econ in which I’m just adding the foreign variables and assuming autarky. It’s not the actual one I wanna compare _
Nash vs. Cooperation but I want to have a working knowledge of the solution method (even if it’s qualitatively purposeless in this cae) in dynare before implementing an actual open econ model with cross country externalities.

Dynare does not allow you to do this. Some of the issues arising have been discussed at
