Book Synopsis Financial Integration and Macroeconomic Volatility by : Mr.Ayhan Kose
Download or read book Financial Integration and Macroeconomic Volatility written by Mr.Ayhan Kose and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2003-03-01 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines the impact of international financial integration on macroeconomic volatility in a large group of industrial and developing economies over the period 1960-99. We report two major results: First, while the volatility of output growth has, on average, declined in the 1990s relative to the three preceding decades, we also document that, on average, the volatility of consumption growth relative to that of income growth has increased for more financially integrated developing economies in the 1990s. Second, increasing financial openness is associated with rising relative volatility of consumption, but only up to a certain threshold. The benefits of financial integration in terms of improved risk-sharing and consumption-smoothing possibilities appear to accrue only beyond this threshold.
Book Synopsis How Do Trade and Financial Integration Affect the Relationship Between Growth and Volatility? by : M. Ayhan Kose
Download or read book How Do Trade and Financial Integration Affect the Relationship Between Growth and Volatility? written by M. Ayhan Kose and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2005 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The influential work of Ramey and Ramey (1995) highlighted an empirical relationship that has now come to be regarded as conventional wisdom-that output volatility and growth are negatively correlated. We reexamine this relationship in the context of globalization-a term typically used to describe the phenomenon of growing international trade and financial integration that has intensified since the mid-1980s. Using a comprehensive new data set, we document that, while the basic negative association between growth and volatility has been preserved during the 1990s, both trade and financial integration significantly weaken this negative relationship. Specifically, we find that, in a regression of growth on volatility and other controls, the estimated coefficient on the interaction between volatility and trade integration is significantly positive. We find a similar, although less significant, result for the interaction of financial integration with volatility.
Book Synopsis Emerging Economy Business Cycles by : Rudrani Bhattacharya

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper analyses the extent to which financial integration impacts the manner in which terms of trade affect business cycles in emerging economies. Using a s mall open economy model, we show that as capital account openness increases in an economy that faces trade shocks, business cycle volatility reduces. For an economy with limited financial openness, and a relatively open trade account, a model with exogenous terms of trade shocks is able to replicate the features of the business cycle.

Book Synopsis Financial Integration, Growth, and Volatility by : Ms.Aude Pommeret
Download or read book Financial Integration, Growth, and Volatility written by Ms.Aude Pommeret and published by INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND. This book was released on 2005-04-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this paper is to evaluate the welfare gains from financial integration for developing and emerging market economies. To do so, we build a stochastic endogenous growth model for a small open economy that can (i) borrow from the rest of the world, (ii) invest in foreign assets, and (iii) receive foreign direct investment (FDI). The model is calibrated on 32 emerging market and developing economies for which we evaluate the upper bound for the welfare gain from financial integration. For plausible values of preference parameters and actual levels of financial integration, the mean welfare gain from financial integration is about 10 percent of initial wealth. Compared with financial autarky, actual levels of financial integration translate into slightly higher annual growth rates (around 0.4 percentage point per year.)
Book Synopsis Finance and Marcoeconomic Volatility by : Cevdet Denizer
Download or read book Finance and Marcoeconomic Volatility written by Cevdet Denizer and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2000 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Countries with more developed financial sectors, experience fewer fluctuations in real per capita output, consumption, and investment growth. But the manner in which the financial sector develops matters. The relative importance of banks in the financial system is important in explaining consumption, and investment volatility. The proportion of credit provided to the private sector, best explains volatility of consumption, and output. The authors generate their main results using fixed-effects estimates with panel data from seventy countries for the years 1956-98. Their general findings suggest that the risk management, and information processing provided by banks, maybe especially important in reducing consumption, and investment volatility. The simple availability of credit to the private sector, probably helps smooth consumption, and GDP.
Book Synopsis Revisiting the Link Between Finance and Macroeconomic Volatility by : Ms.Era Dabla-Norris
Download or read book Revisiting the Link Between Finance and Macroeconomic Volatility written by Ms.Era Dabla-Norris and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2013-01-30 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines the impact of financial depth on macroeconomic volatility using a dynamic panel analysis for 110 advanced and developing countries. We find that financial depth plays a significant role in dampening the volatility of output, consumption, and investment growth, but only up to a certain point. At very high levels, such as those observed in many advanced economies, financial depth amplifies consumption and investment volatility. We also find strong evidence that deeper financial systems serve as shock absorbers, mitigating the negative effects of real external shocks on macroeconomic volatility. This smoothing effect is particularly pronounced for consumption volatility in environments of high exposure - when trade and financial openness are high - suggesting significant gains from further financial deepening in developing countries.
Book Synopsis The Volatility of Capital Flows in Emerging Markets by : Maria Sole Pagliari
Download or read book The Volatility of Capital Flows in Emerging Markets written by Maria Sole Pagliari and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2017-03-07 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Capital flow volatility is a concern for macroeconomic and financial stability. Nonetheless, literature is scarce in this topic. Our paper sheds light on this issue in two dimensions. First, using quarterly data for 65 countries over the period 1970Q1-2016Q1, we construct three measures of volatility, for total capital flows and key instruments. Second, we perform panel regressions to understand the determinants of volatility. The measures show that the volatility of all instruments is prone to bouts, rising sharply during global shocks like the taper tantrum episode. Capital flow volatility thus remains a challenge for policy makers. The regression results suggest that push factors can be more important than pull factors in explaining volatility, illustrating that the characteristics of volatility can be different from those of the flows levels.
Book Synopsis Effects of Financial Globalization on Developing Countries by : Mr.Ayhan Kose
Download or read book Effects of Financial Globalization on Developing Countries written by Mr.Ayhan Kose and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2003-09-03 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study provides a candid, systematic, and critical review of recent evidence on this complex subject. Based on a review of the literature and some new empirical evidence, it finds that (1) in spite of an apparently strong theoretical presumption, it is difficult to detect a strong and robust causal relationship between financial integration and economic growth; (2) contrary to theoretical predictions, financial integration appears to be associated with increases in consumption volatility (both in absolute terms and relative to income volatility) in many developing countries; and (3) there appear to be threshold effects in both of these relationships, which may be related to absorptive capacity. Some recent evidence suggests that sound macroeconomic frameworks and, in particular, good governance are both quantitatively and qualitatively important in affecting developing countries’ experiences with financial globalization.
Book Synopsis Reaping the Benefits of Financial Globalization by : Mr.Ayhan Kose
Download or read book Reaping the Benefits of Financial Globalization written by Mr.Ayhan Kose and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2008-12-16 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Financial globalization has increased dramatically over the past three decades, particularly for advanced economies, while emerging market and developing countries experienced more moderate increases. Divergences across countries stem from different capital control regimes, and factors such as institutional quality and domestic financial development. Although, in principle, financial globalization should enhance international risk sharing, reduce macroeconomic volatility, and foster economic growth, in practice its effects are less clear-cut. This paper envisages a gradual and orderly sequencing of external financial liberalization and complementary reforms in macroeconomic policy framework as essential components of a successful liberalization strategy.

Book Synopsis Financial Integration and Macrofinancial Linkages in Asia by : Asian Development Bank
Download or read book Financial Integration and Macrofinancial Linkages in Asia written by Asian Development Bank and published by Asian Development Bank. This book was released on 2020-10-01 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Asian financial landscape has grown more interconnected over the past 2 decades. Previous financial crises have shown how financial volatility can transmit rapidly across an interconnected financial network. Empirical analyses have shown, moreover, how financial volatility can reverberate across the macroeconomy. This report summarizes the lessons from past crises, reviews the evidence of the macrofinancial linkages and feedback effects of financial distress, and proposes policy considerations and coordinated responses to enhance financial stability and resilience.
Book Synopsis Volatility and Comovement in a Globalized World Economy by : Mr.Ayhan Kose
Download or read book Volatility and Comovement in a Globalized World Economy written by Mr.Ayhan Kose and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2003-12-01 with total page 39 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper analyzes the evolution of volatility and cross-country comovement in output, consumption, and investment fluctuations using two distinct datasets. The results suggest that there has been a significant decline in the volatility of business cycle fluctuations and a slight increase in the degree of cyclical comovement among industrialized countries over time. However, for emerging market economies, financial globalization appears to have been associated, on average, with an increase in macroeconomic volatility as well as declines in the degree of comovement of output and consumption growth with their corresponding world aggregates.

Book Synopsis The Dynamics of Asian Financial Integration by : Michael Devereux
Download or read book The Dynamics of Asian Financial Integration written by Michael Devereux and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2011-05-03 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ongoing global financial crisis has manifested a remarkable degree of global financial integration—and its implications—for emerging Asian financial markets. The current crisis will not and should not deter the progress that the region has made toward financial openness and integration. However, events like this clearly demonstrate that financial liberalization and integration is not without risks. Hence, emerging Asian economies' growing financial ties have motivated us to look closer at the repercussions of increased financial integration and evaluate the benefits of risk sharing and better access to international capital markets against the costs of cross-border financial contagion. The crisis also presents a timely opportunity for the region’s policy makers to rethink their strategies for financial deregulation and liberalization and to reconsider a next step to integrate emerging East Asia’s financial markets further. However, doing so requires deeper understanding of financial market integration. While much has been said in both academic and policy circles about financial globalization and regional financial integration as separate areas of study, existing research has been relatively silent on the dynamics between these two distinctive forces. The book addresses this gap in financial literature and assesses financial integration in emerging East Asia at both regional and global levels. The publication studies the factors driving the progress of regional financial integration in relation to financial globalization and identifies the relevant policy challenges facing emerging market economies in the region. Chapters look into three broad aspects of regional and global financial market integration: (i) measurement of regional and global financial integration, (ii) understanding dynamics of regional financial integration versus global financial integration, and (iii) welfare implications from regional financial market integration amid financial globalization. Against this context, academics, policy makers, and other readers will appreciate the rigorous research contribution provided by the book.
Book Synopsis Macrofinancial Linkages by : Mr.Christopher W. Crowe
Download or read book Macrofinancial Linkages written by Mr.Christopher W. Crowe and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2010-08-25 with total page 617 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Macrofinancial linkages have long been at the core of the IMF's mandate to oversee the stability of the global financial system. With the advent of the economic crisis, the Fund has drawn on this research in order to contribute to critical debates on the nature of appropriate policy responses at both the national and multilateral levels. The current juncture offers a good opportunity to take stock of this body of research by IMF staff and to share it with a wider audience, particularly since few collections have been published in this area. This volume brings together some of the best writing by IMF economists on macrofinancial issues, and highlights the issues and approaches that have guided IMF thinking in an area that makes up an increasingly important component of the IMF's overall remit. The chapters in the volume fit into three broad themes: financial crises and boom-bust cycles; financial integration, financial liberalization, and economic performance; and policy issues relating to macroeconomic policy and the corporate and financial sectors-including domestic and external financial liberalization.

Download or read book Globalisation and Macroeconomic Volatility written by Michael Böhl and published by Europaischer Hochschulverlag Gmbh & Company Kg. This book was released on 2009 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does globalisation affect economic stability? And if so, how? The interest of the book is in supposed effects of globalisation on macroeconomic volatility. Globalisation in economic terms can be defined as international integration of goods and factor markets. During the last decades, goods trade and financial flows have risen strikingly. Macroeconomic volatility can refer to several aggregates such as output and its components, prices and employment. During the "Great Moderation," variability of economic growth and inflation rates has changed significantly. The first part focuses on the possible effect of international goods market integration on output volatility. Three candidate mechanisms are theoretically introduced and empirically tested. Those channels relate to external risk, offshoring and sudden stops. The second part describes other potential determinants of output volatility, such as the international integration of financial markets, monetary and fiscal policy, and shocks. Each determinant is theoretically described and empirically revised. The importance of globalisation relative to other sources in affecting output volatility is evaluated. The summarised findings of the analysis: A careful thesis about effects of globalisation on output volatility should be differentiated along several dimensions. Firstly, globalisation of goods and financial markets must be distinguished. Secondly, even for international goods trade various mechanisms affect the volatility of output differently. Thirdly, for each channel the direction and weight of the effect depend on country characteristics. In a conclusion the author offers alternative ways of interpretation for economic policy.
