Sterilization of capital inflows through the banking sector: evidence from Asia
Spiegel, Mark M. (1995)
This paper develops an open-economy version of the Bernanke-Blinder model which indicates that sterilization efforts through increases in reserve requirements will have limited impact if viable financial alternatives to the commercial banking sector exist. I then examine the capital inflow surge experiences of seven developing Asian nations. Our analysis yields three stylized conclusions: First, the timing of capital inflow surges indicates a causal role for both domestic and foreign factors. Second, there is little general rule as to the most effective sterilization instrument. Finally, ...

The international community's response to the Asian financial crisis
Hoenig, Thomas M. (1998-04)
The U.S. economy just completed another stellar year, marked by strong growth and declining inflation. Indeed, the low inflation of recent years has been instrumental in reinvigorating the U.S. economy, helping unleash a new vibrancy and confidence across the country. However, the shock wave working its way toward us from the Western Pacific will likely be a countervailing force in our economy.> > Financial turmoil in a handful of Asian countries should slow the growth of spending by foreigners on U.S. goods and services. On balance, most economists are currently guessing that reduced demand ...

Will the Tenth District catch the Asian flu?
Lamb, Russell L.; Gazel, Ricardo C. (1998-04)
While the impacts of the Asian financial turmoil on the United States have been widely discussed and studied, few analysts have looked at the likely impact on the Tenth District Economy. Gazel and Lamb examine the negative impacts of the Asian financial turmoil on the Tenth District and find that while the overall impact on the district economy is likely to be moderate, some segments of the economy could be hurt significantly. Two important sectors of the Tenth District economy likely to be affected by the Asian economic crisis are manufacturing and agriculture.> District manufacturing ...

Working Paper
Thoughts on the origins of the Asia crisis: impulses and propagation mechanisms
Glick, Reuven (1998)
The traditional fundamentals suggested by first and second-generation of crisis models did not provide much indication of an impending crisis in Asia. Growing current account deficits and somewhat overvalued real exchange rates suggested some need to curtail domestic demand and/or engineer nominal currency depreciation, but did not suggest a crisis of the magnitude that has occurred. ; Nevertheless, to a large extent, the Asian crisis can be explained in terms of impulses and propagation mechanisms related to fundamentals, specifically general weaknesses and distortions in the financial ...

Working Paper
Asia's financial crisis: lessons and policy responses
Pasadilla, Gloria; Remolona, Eli M.; Moreno, Ramon (1998)
This paper argues that fundamental weaknesses in Asian financial systems that had been masked by rapid growth were at the root of East Asia's 1997 currency and financial crisis. These weaknesses were caused by the lack of incentives for effective risk management created by implicit or explicit government guarantees against failure. The weakness of the financial sector was accentuated by large capital inflows, which were partly encouraged by pegged exchange rates. ; Policy responses need to be designed to restore growth in an environment of macroeconomic stability in the short run, and to ...
