Book excerpt: This March 2002 issue of the Global Financial Stability Report highlights that financial markets ended the year 2001 on a positive note. Equity markets recovered and rallied noticeably from their lows of late September. In bond markets, yield spreads of corporate and high-yielding bonds, particularly emerging market bonds, narrowed against the U.S. Treasury. At the same time, the U.S. Treasury yield curve steepened, and the U.S. dollar has strengthened. Financial markets thus anticipate, and have priced in, a recovery in economic activity and corporate earnings during 2002.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the fourth in the series of quarterly assessments of global financial markets (which replaces two IMF publications: the annual International Capital Markets Report and the quarterly Emerging Market Financing). This report, further to outlining key developments generally, centred on the role of financial derivatives in emerging markets. Local derivates markets in merging economies have grown rapidly, especially in countries that have removed capital controls and have developed their underlying securities markets. The use of derivates, though, has made crises dynamics more unpredicatable by accelerating capital outflows. In many of these episodes, the negative impact of derivates was either to the immaturity of local derivatives markets or to eak prudential supervision, which allowed some financial institutions to build up leveraged positions. The implications of these trends is due to be discussed in a broader context in the next issue of the series.

This book was released on 2017-10-11 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The October 2017 Global Financial Stability Report finds that the global financial system continues to strengthen in response to extraordinary policy support, regulatory enhancements, and the cyclical upturn in growth. It also includes a chapter that examines the short- and medium-term implications for economic growth and financial stability of the past decades’ rise in household debt. It documents large differences in household debt-to-GDP ratios across countries but a common increasing trajectory that was moderated but not reversed by the global financial crisis. Another chapter develops a new macroeconomic measure of financial stability by linking financial conditions to the probability distribution of future GDP growth and applies it to a set of 20 major advanced and emerging market economies. The chapter shows that changes in financial conditions shift the whole distribution of future GDP growth.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This September 2005 issue of the Global Financial Stability Report highlights that financial conditions have remained broadly positive over the past six months, but some market developments diverged from consensus expectations of market participants. Long-term interest rates, instead of rising, as expected by some investors, have moderated, leading to a further flattening of global yield curves. This reflected cyclical factors, as market participants seemed to expect more moderate global growth and inflation, and structural factors such as a secular portfolio shift toward long-term bonds by pension funds and life insurance companies.
