This document is the European Commission's spring 2009 economic forecast. It provides an overview of economic conditions and forecasts for the EU and euro area, as well as individual member states, candidate countries, and other global economies. The forecast predicts that the EU will experience a deep and widespread recession in 2009, with GDP declining by 4% and unemployment sharply increasing. Inflation is expected to remain low as economic activity contracts. Government budget deficits and debt are also forecast to rise substantially across the EU due to falling tax revenues and stimulus measures. Considerable uncertainty surrounds the forecasts due to the ongoing global financial and economic crisis.
La economía mundial está experimentando una grave recesión causada por una crisis financiera masiva y una pérdida de confianza.

This document discusses the advantages of central banks adopting explicit inflation targeting as the guiding principle for monetary policy. It argues that inflation targeting improves monetary policy in three key ways:
1) It facilitates public understanding of monetary policy by clearly defining the central bank's target, making policy decisions more transparent.
2) It improves policy effectiveness by anchoring public expectations about future inflation, since expectations strongly influence actual inflation outcomes.
3) It leads central banks to make decisions based on quantitative projections of the economy's future evolution, increasing the systematic data-driven nature of policy decisions.
The document analyzes capital flows and economic performance in Latin America and other emerging markets between 1997-2002. It finds that Latin America experienced a "triple whammy" after a reduction in capital inflows, with higher credit costs, currency depreciation, lower investment and slower growth. Charts show trends in various countries' capital flows, current accounts, GDP and more over this period.
The document discusses how emerging markets are facing difficulties due to changes in the global economy. It notes an increase in emerging market bond spreads and drying up of portfolio flows as funds available to emerging markets have decreased. Reasons given include the bursting of the Nasdaq bubble, geopolitical risks, and loss of investor confidence from accounting scandals. While emerging market policies have been flexible, growth remains well below potential with no signs of help from Europe, Japan or internal emerging market factors like Argentina and Brazil. The document concludes that something is different now for emerging markets, with exchange rate flexibility and selectivity becoming more important.
El documento presenta un resumen de la política monetaria del Banco Central de Reserva del Perú (BCRP) desde enero de 2002.

1. The financial crisis: Initial conditions, basic
mechanisms, and appropriate policies.
Olivier Blanchard
Munich lecture, November 2008
Nr. 1
2. 1. Introduction
• Much too early to give a definitive assessment.
• Not too early to think about the basic mechanisms, and whether/how
we can prevent similar events in the future.
• A first pass, in the midst of the action. With thanks to the IMF team.
Nr. 2
4. Organization
• Initial conditions
• Two amplification mechanisms
• Interconnections and dynamics
• Implications for policy now and in the future
Nr. 4
5. Setting the stage: Initial conditions
• The trigger: The issuance of risky assets, with undervaluation of risk.
Subprime mortgages.
Causes? Large world demand for safe assets, and bad regulation.
• The determinants of amplification.
– Complexity and opacity of assets on balance sheets of financial
institutions, so low liquidity.
Causes? Better risk allocation, and bad regulation.
– Increased leverage (lower capital relative to assets).
Causes? Bad, and sometimes perverse regulation.

7. Amplification mechanism 1. Runs
• Bad (or doubtful) assets on balance sheets
• Runs (not only by depositors, but by other investors)
• Need to sell assets.
• Not enough deep pocket investors to buy.
• Firesale prices. P EN P V .
• Worse balance sheets. More incentives to run, etc
Nr. 7
8. Amplification mechanism 2. Capital
• Bad (or doubtful) assets on balance sheets
• Decrease in capital ratio (Assets minus liabilities, over Assets)
• Need to sell assets (deleverage)
• Not enough deep pocket investors to buy.
• Firesale prices. P EN P V .
• Lower capital ratio. More incentives to sell assets, etc
Nr. 8
9. The two mechanisms: Conceptually separate but strongly interacting
• Run on financial institution 1
• Cut credit to financial institution 2
– Sale of assets at depressed prices
Low capital, so further sales
– Or cut credit to financial institution 3
Examples. From US banks to Hungary. From subprimes to other assets.
Nr. 9
10. The dynamics in real time
• Increase in probability of insolvency.
• Increase in counterparty risk.
• Decrease in volume and maturity of interbank lending.
• Contagion across institutions. From direct exposure to subprime on-
wards.
• Contagion across countries. From the US to Europe, to emerging market
countries.
• Increasing effects on the ultimate borrowers: households and firms.

15. Financial policies for the short run
Need to dampen/eliminate the two amplification mechanisms.
• Runs: Provide liquidity to a broader set of institutions.
Done. Still problem with institutions, countries without access to lender
of last resort (Iceland).
• Capital.
– Buy bad assets. For two reasons: Clarify price. Move price closer
to EPDV.
– Increase capital.
Many institutions may still need recapitalization. So need to add
capital (buy shares).
• Second leg takes time to implement. May need guarantees for deposi-
tors, and for interbank claims. To start interbank lending.
Nr. 15
16. Basic financial architecture in place in advanced countries
• A crucial weekend in October, but:
• Problems with speed/scope of recapitalization
• Coherence across countries
• Still hidden land mines. for example: CDS positions.
• Problems in emerging market countries.
Sudden stops. Need access to international liquidity provision.

23. Looking forward. How to avoid a repeat?
• Back to the trigger and the two mechanisms:
• To limit the build up of systemic risk.
Broader regulation and monitoring systemic risk.
Limit leverage.
More transparent pricing and tracing of assets. Centralized trading
rather than over the counter.
• For runs: Broader liquidity provision.
Across institutions, in exchange for regulation,
Across countries, for runs on claims in foreign currency.
• For capital: Procyclical capital ratios.
A public fund to purchase illiquid assets at EN P V − x?
Nr. 23
24. The international dimension
• Need to coordinate regulation, national policies. Ireland and unilateral
guarantees.
• Need to monitor risk at a global level.
Exposure of Austria and Belgium to Hungary, of France to Belgium.
Exposure of emerging markets to sudden stops.
• Need to organize multilateral liquidity provision. Swaps, and the new
IMF facility.
• Need for burden sharing rules if recapitalization. National approaches
have large spillovers.
