Book The Global Financial and Economic Crisis

Download or read book The Global Financial and Economic Crisis written by Daniela Gressani and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Global and economic aspects of the crisis: two aspects of the current crisis are important to stress. The first is its global nature. As you know, this crisis started last year in the US and European financial markets but spread quickly to developing countries. The second is its economic impact. Before the crisis erupted, many countries, and many developing countries in particular, were already suffering from the impact of very substantial food and fuel price increases, which had translated into higher inflation and current account deficits. As a result, the financial crisis has quickly become an economic crisis, and already many developed countries are in recession, and developing countries are seeing weakening growth.

Book Global Banks and International Shock Transmission

Download or read book Global Banks and International Shock Transmission written by Nicola Cetorelli and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2010-11 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Global banks played a significant role in transmitting the 2007-09 financial crisis to emerging-market (EM) economies. The authors examine adverse liquidity shocks on main developed-country banking systems and their relationships to EM across Europe, Asia, and Latin Amer., isolating loan supply from loan demand effects. Loan supply in EM across Europe, Asia, and Latin Amer. was affected significantly through three separate channels: (1) a contraction in direct, cross-border lending by foreign banks; (2) a contraction in local lending by foreign banks¿ affiliates in EM; and (3) a contraction in loan supply by domestic banks, resulting from the funding shock to their balance sheets induced by the decline in interbank, cross-border lending.

Book Asia Beyond the Global Economic Crisis

Download or read book Asia Beyond the Global Economic Crisis written by Satoshi Inomata and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The characteristic feature of the recent Global Economic Crisis is the speed and extent of the shock transmission. The development of cross-national production networks in recent years has significantly deepened the economic interdependency between countries, and a shock that occurs in one region can be swiftly and extensively transmitted to the rest of the globe. The sudden contraction of world trade and output is a negative outcome of this intertwined global economic system. Based on the method known as international input-output analyses, this book provides a detailed examination of the mechanics of shock transmission by probing the labyrinth of complex supply networks among nations.

Book International Financial Contagion

Download or read book International Financial Contagion written by Stijn Claessens and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-17 with total page 461 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No sooner had the Asian crisis broken out in 1997 than the witch-hunt started. With great indignation every Asian economy pointed fingers. They were innocent bystanders. The fundamental reason for the crisis was this or that - most prominently contagion - but also the decline in exports of the new commodities (high-tech goods), the steep rise of the dollar, speculators, etc. The prominent question, of course, is whether contagion could really have been the key factor and, if so, what are the channels and mechanisms through which it operated in such a powerful manner. The question is obvious because until 1997, Asia's economies were generally believed to be immensely successful, stable and well managed. This question is of great importance not only in understanding just what happened, but also in shaping policies. In a world of pure contagion, i.e. when innocent bystanders are caught up and trampled by events not of their making and when consequences go far beyond ordinary international shocks, countries will need to look for better protective policies in the future. In such a world, the international financial system will need to change in order to offer better preventive and reactive policy measures to help avoid, or at least contain, financial crises.

Book Evolution of the Global Financial Network and Contagion  A New Approach

Download or read book Evolution of the Global Financial Network and Contagion A New Approach written by Ms.Yevgeniya Korniyenko and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2018-05-15 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper studies the interconnectedness of the global financial system and its susceptibility to shocks. A novel multilayer network framework is applied to link debt and equity exposures across countries. Use of this approach—that examines simultaneously multiple channels of transmission and their important higher order effects—shows that ignoring the heterogeneity of financial exposures, and simply aggregating all claims, as often done in other studies, can underestimate the extent and effects of financial contagion.The structure of the global financial network has changed since the global financial crisis, impacted by European bank’s deleveraging and higher corporate debt issuance. Still, we find that the structure of the system and contagion remain similar in that network is highly susceptible to shocks from central countries and those with large financial systems (e.g., the USA and the UK). While, individual European countries (excluding the UK) have relatively low impact on shock propagation, the network is highly susceptible to the shocks from the entire euro area. Another important development is the rising role of the Asian countries and the noticeable increase in network susceptibility to shocks from China and Hong Kong SAR economies.

Book Global Economic Uncertainties and Exchange Rate Shocks

Download or read book Global Economic Uncertainties and Exchange Rate Shocks written by Eliphas Ndou and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-01-08 with total page 509 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the macroeconomic and regulatory impact of domestic and international shocks on the South African economy resulting from the 2009 financial crisis. It also assesses the impact of the US economy’s eventual recovery from the crisis and the prospect of higher US interest rates in future. Told in three parts, the book explores associations between economic growth, policy uncertainty and the key domestic and international transmission channels, and transmission effects, of global financial regulatory and domestic macro-economic uncertainties on subdued and volatile economic recovery, financial channels, lending rate margins, and credit growth. The book concludes by extending its focus to the role of US monetary policy, capital flows and rand/US dollar volatility on the South African economy.

Book The Global Financial Crisis   Explaining Cross Country Differences in the Output Impact

Download or read book The Global Financial Crisis Explaining Cross Country Differences in the Output Impact written by Pelin Berkmen and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2009-12-01 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We provide one of the first attempts at explaining the differences in the crisis impact across developing countries and emerging markets. Using cross-country regressions to explain the factors driving growth forecast revisions after the eruption of the global crisis, we find that a small set of variables explain a large share of the variation in growth revisions. Countries with more leveraged domestic financial systems and more rapid credit growth tended to suffer larger downward revisions to their growth outlooks. For emerging markets, this financial channel trumps the trade channel. For a broader set of developing countries, however, the trade channel seems to have mattered, with countries exporting more advanced manufacturing goods more affected than those exporting food. Exchange-rate flexibility clearly helped in buffering the impact of the shock. There is also some -weaker-evidence that countries with a stronger fiscal position prior to the crisis were hit less severely. We find little evidence for the importance of other policy variables.

Book Financial Crises Explanations  Types  and Implications

Download or read book Financial Crises Explanations Types and Implications written by Mr.Stijn Claessens and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2013-01-30 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper reviews the literature on financial crises focusing on three specific aspects. First, what are the main factors explaining financial crises? Since many theories on the sources of financial crises highlight the importance of sharp fluctuations in asset and credit markets, the paper briefly reviews theoretical and empirical studies on developments in these markets around financial crises. Second, what are the major types of financial crises? The paper focuses on the main theoretical and empirical explanations of four types of financial crises—currency crises, sudden stops, debt crises, and banking crises—and presents a survey of the literature that attempts to identify these episodes. Third, what are the real and financial sector implications of crises? The paper briefly reviews the short- and medium-run implications of crises for the real economy and financial sector. It concludes with a summary of the main lessons from the literature and future research directions.

Book Global Financial Crisis  Financial Contagion  and Emerging Markets

Download or read book Global Financial Crisis Financial Contagion and Emerging Markets written by Mr.F. Gulcin Ozkan and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2012-12-13 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent global financial crisis was the first in recent history that was triggered by problems in the financial system of the mature economies. Existing work on financial crisis in emerging market countries, however, almost exclusively focus on the role of financial frictions in the domestic economy. In contrast, we propose a two-country DSGE model to investigate the transmission of a global financial crisis that originates from financial frictions in the rest of the world. We find that the scale of financial spillovers from the global to the domestic economy and trade openness are key determinants of the severity of the financial crisis for the domestic economy. Our results also suggest that the welfare ranking of alternative monetary policy regimes is determined by the degree of financial contagion, the degree of trade openness as well as the scale of foreign currency denominated debt in the domestic economy.

Book Lessons and Policy Implications from the Global Financial Crisis

Download or read book Lessons and Policy Implications from the Global Financial Crisis written by Mr.Luc Laeven and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2010-02-01 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ongoing global financial crisis is rooted in a combination of factors common to previous financial crises and some new factors. The crisis has brought to light a number of deficiencies in financial regulation and architecture, particularly in the treatment of systemically important financial institutions, the assessments of systemic risks and vulnerabilities, and the resolution of financial institutions. The global nature of the financial crisis has made clear that financially integrated markets, while offering many benefits, can also pose significant risks, with large real economic consequences. Deep reforms are therefore needed to the international financial architecture to safeguard the stability of an increasingly financially integrated world.

Book The Financial and Economic Crisis and Its Transmission Channels

Download or read book The Financial and Economic Crisis and Its Transmission Channels written by Alain Suter and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present study empirically investigates, if the financial and economic crisis was solely transmitted from the United Stated to numerous other countries by ordinary trade and financial channels or if additional channels, e.g. herding behavior, help to explain the spread of the crisis. For this purpose this study employs two test methods. The first test method is based on two assumptions: Firstly, the level of stock market correlation existing already before the outbreak of a crisis is associated with ordinary transmission channels. Secondly, an increased stock market correlation during the crisis is an indicator of operating additional transmission channels. Therefore, the first method examines if stock market correlations between the United States and other countries increased during the financial crisis. The results presented in this study indicate that additional transmission channels played a significant role in spreading the financial and economic crisis. The author then goes further and analyzes through a second test method if the two underlying assumptions of the first method are true. The results show that the assumptions are adequate and therefore support the results of the first test method.

Book Severity of the Crisis and Its Transmission Channels

Download or read book Severity of the Crisis and Its Transmission Channels written by Cesar Calderon and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current global crisis, although initially circumscribed to the US housing market, spread rapidly across markets and borders. It has affected almost all countries through different reinforcing channels: the contraction in international trade, capital flows, remittances, and international commodity prices. The main goal of this note is to empirically analyze the mechanisms through which the financial crisis of 2007-2009 propagated throughout the world by characterizing the main factors behind the fall in Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth rates. The findings indicate that a greater decline in the growth rate was registered in countries with higher de facto trade openness, less resilient domestic financial markets, and, to a lesser extent, improved macroeconomic frameworks. To complement this evidence, we construct an aggregate index of the severity of the crisis that captures the real and financial consequences in each country of this unprecedented global financial shock.
