Strategy, Policy, & Review Department and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2010-03-18 with total page 7 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Executive Board has agreed that post-program monitoring (PPM), with formal involvement of the Board, could be useful in certain cases. Specifically, the Board has decided that when a member’s outstanding credit from the General Resources Account (GRA) of the Fund, or from the Fund as Trustee of the Poverty Reduction and Growth Trust (PRGT), or a combination thereof, exceeds a threshold of 200 percent of quota, and the member no longer has an arrangement or is not implementing a staff-monitored program with reports issued to the Board, there should be a presumption that the member will engage in PPM with the Fund of economic developments and policies after the expiration of the arrangement.
Download or read book The Duration of Capital Account Crises written by Mauro Mecagni and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines the duration of capital account crises. We develop a new index to identify both the start and the end of these crises. Applying the index to a sample of 18 crisis episodes, we derive stylized facts on crisis duration and review the economic and financial circumstances that prevailed at the dusk of crises, a relatively unexplored area. We use the econometric technique of duration analysis to gauge the relative importance of various factors affecting the probability of exiting a crisis. We find that initial and external conditions are key determinants. But fiscal and monetary policies can also help shorten crisis duration.

Download or read book Who Needs to Open the Capital Account written by Olivier Jeanne and published by Peterson Institute. This book was released on 2012 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most countries emerged from the Second World War with capital accounts that were closed to the rest of the world. Since then, a process of capital account opening has occurred, with the result that all developed and many emerging-market countries now have capital accounts that are both de facto and de jure open, while many developing countries also have de facto openness. This study examines this in part by considering some of the first lessons from the current global financial crisis. This crisis may change the terms of the debate on capital account liberalization in a deeper and more lasting way than any of the crises of the past two decades because it may mark a reversal in the secular trend of financial liberalization at the core of the international financial system. The current crisis also raises new questions about the appropriate policy responses to boom-bust dynamics in domestic credit and in international credit flows. Intellectual consistency is needed between the domestic and international dimensions of financial regulation and the policies aimed at dealing with boom-bust dynamics in domestic and international credit.

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.
