Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Indonesia is one of the few countries that came through the global economic crisis in 2008-09 with positive economic growth. Despite some recorded positive domestic economic performances, Indonesia faces new challenges as its economy keeps growing and the global economy remains uncertain. A new economic development paradigm is needed to overcome old problems (poverty and unemployment, inadequate infrastructure, corruption, a complex regulatory environment, and unequal resource distribution among regions) with global market opportunities. This book provides a new perspective on how Indonesian’s economic policies should be developed by considering its past and future challenges." - Firmanzah, Professor of Economics and Dean of Faculty of Economics, University of Indonesia "Aris Ananta, Muljana Soekarni and Sjamsul Arifin gather excellent researchers and practitioners to discuss important economic policy issues for Indonesia today. They discuss monetary and fiscal policies and real economic sector issues based not only on theoretical analysis but also on their day-to-day experience in economic management. By reviewing Indonesia's economic policy reform and subsequent Asian financial crisis and sub-prime loan crisis, the authors present a new economic development paradigm and explore economic strategy and policies for the new era. The book offers many timely lessons from history, as well as the real policy experiences of the authors, and guides readers in exploring economic policies under the globalized world economy. This book is very useful for both practitioners and researchers." - Masaaki Komatsu, Professor of Economics, Hiroshima University

Download or read book Managing Currency Crises in Emerging Markets written by Michael P. Dooley and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2007-11-01 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The management of financial crises in emerging markets is a vital and high-stakes challenge in an increasingly global economy. For this reason, it's also a highly contentious issue in today's public policy circles. In this book, leading economists-many of whom have also participated in policy debates on these issues-consider how best to reduce the frequency and cost of such crises. The contributions here explore the management process from the beginning of a crisis to the long-term effects of the techniques used to minimize it. The first three chapters focus on the earliest responses and the immediate defense of a currency under attack, exploring whether unnecessary damage to economies can be avoided by adopting the right response within the first few days of a financial crisis. Next, contributors examine the adjustment programs that follow, considering how to design these programs so that they shorten the recovery phase, encourage economic growth, and minimize the probability of future difficulties. Finally, the last four papers analyze the actual effects of adjustment programs, asking whether they accomplish what they are designed to do-and whether, as many critics assert, they impose disproportionate costs on the poorest members of society. Recent high-profile currency crises have proven not only how harmful they can be to neighboring economies and trading partners, but also how important policy responses can be in determining their duration and severity. Economists and policymakers will welcome the insightful evaluations in this important volume, and those of its companion, Sebastian Edwards and Jeffrey A. Frankel's Preventing Currency Crises in Emerging Markets.

This book was released on 2011 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book incorporates a selection of eight revised papers presented at the Conference on "Managing Economic Crisis in Southeast Asia", organized jointly by the Saw Centre for Financial Studies, NUS Business School and the Institute of Southeast Asian Studies, in January 2010. The chapters deal with the management of the 2008-09 economic crisis in Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, the Philippines, Indonesia, and the region as a whole. They represent an analysis of the impact of the economic crisis and the stimulus packages that were swiftly put in place by the governments to mitigate the economic recession and to pave the way for a quick recovery. The success of the monetary and fiscal policy measures in engendering a strong economic recovery in these countries is also discussed in considerable depth. The book, with contributions from experts on the topics covered, will be extremely valuable to businessmen, analysts, academics, students, policy-makers and the general public interested in seeking a greater understanding of the sub-prime crisis that led to the global economic recession.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This important book is set to be a key document for those interested in Indonesia's recent economic and political history. There have been many unanswered questions about exactly how the regional currency crisis snowballed into a full-scale banking crisis in Indonesia, coupled with a total loss of credibility within a short time. This record by the official in the midst of the banking crisis, the ex governor of Bank Indonesia, gives a fuller and intriguing picture of the events, including the actions of President Soeharto, as well as a balanced account of the much criticised interventions by the International Monetary Fund. The author also analyses the lessons for monetary policy to avoid future such crisis. This is essential reading for economists and Indonesia watchers.

Download or read book Indonesia Getting Its Second Wind written by Maria G.S Soetopo Conboy and published by Gramedia Pustaka Utama. This book was released on 2015-09-02 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the legal accountability associated with government policies in the Indonesian legal system. It explores legal issues with regard to law making and law enforcement, specifically the events that resulted in the unjust charges leveled against several government officials in the aftermath of the 1997 economic meltdown. Using a comparative study of central bank responses during financial crises in Malaysia, the United Kingdom, the United States of America, Germany, and Indonesia, the book offers a solution utilizing the Economic Analysis of Law (EAL) to achieve efficient and just policies. The application of EAL in all levels of the government will assist in analyzing and revealing potential impacts for decision makers. This book is a call to action for the Indonesian government and its people to learn from past experiences and look toward a brighter and prosperous Indonesia through the blending of law and economics to achieve social welfare maximization. “A must read book for those who are interested on how law intertwine with economics by evaluating policies of Government of Indonesia in time of crisis as a case study.” —Prof. Hikmahanto Juwana, S.H., LL.M., Ph.D. Professor of Law University of Indonesia “Provocative... The book paved the way for a public debate of the moral limits of capitalism, markets, and regulations.” —Denni Puspa Purbasari, M.Sc., Ph.D. Lecturer, Department of Economics, Gadjah Mada University “This book is an enlightening way to comprehend that jurisprudence is an interdependent science which has its variable with other scientific disciplines, particularly economics. By introducing the method of Economic Analysis of Law, this book provides a solution to the legal problems as a groundwork to minimize the impact on society.” —Prof. DR. Bintan R. Saragih, S.H., M.H. Professor of Law University Pelita Harapan “In the law making process, EAL can be described as if a sharpened blade to divide rationality, urgency and justification of a regulation. It is the reason for the law maker, EAL becomes a substantial instrument that must be masterly implemented. Certainly, without EAL, the law can potentially become an instrument of speculation.” —DR. Henry Soelistyo Budi, S.H., LL.M. Director of the Doctoral Program of the Graduate School of Law at the University Pelita Harapan

Download or read book Financial Fragility and Instability in Indonesia written by Yasuyuki Matsumoto and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2007-01-24 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This highly relevant study provides an incisive analysis of a critical phase in recent East Asian financial history, exploring the underlying causes of the financial crisis that struck Indonesia during the second half of 1997. Matsumoto’s extensive commercial experience in Indonesian finance during these critical years, allows him to skilfully argue that the roots of the crisis lay in the period of capital liberalization undertaken during the boom years from 1994 to 1997 which encouraged the development of fragile and unstable financial structures, involving increased corporate leverage, reliance on external debt, and the introduction of riskier and more complicated financial instruments and transactions. In-depth fieldwork data and four detailed case studies illuminate the microeconomic foundations of the crisis, showing how Indonesian capitalists sought to liquidate their Indonesian assets without losing control of their corporate empires, by taking advantage of increased access to foreign loans and complex financial re-engineering, actions which ultimately precipitated instability and crisis throughout the entire financial system. Finally, it reflects upon the policy implications of this episode, putting forward the case for comprehensive capital controls for open and developing economies until they establish appropriate financial institutions to monitor and manage the level of indebtedness and the volatility of capitalists’ behaviour.
