c_ml2s1l0qei1h | Financial contagion refers to "the spread of market disturbances – mostly on the downside – from one country to the other, a process observed through co-movements in exchange rates, stock prices, sovereign spreads, and capital flows". Financial contagion can be a potential risk for countries who are trying to integrate... | Financial contagion |
c_2om2j7o9a5u7 | At the domestic level, usually the failure of a domestic bank or financial intermediary triggers transmission when it defaults on interbank liabilities and sells assets in a fire sale, thereby undermining confidence in similar banks. An example of this phenomenon is the subsequent turmoil in the United States financial... | Financial contagion |
c_78covt3mmjqq | However, under today's financial system, with the large volume of cash flow, such as hedge fund and cross-regional operation of large banks, financial contagion usually happens simultaneously both among domestic institutions and across countries. The cause of financial contagion usually is beyond the explanation of rea... | Financial contagion |
c_y3nb8vzy7sfe | Financial contagion can create financial volatility and can seriously damage the economy and financial systems of countries. There are several branches of classifications that explain the mechanism of financial contagion, which are spillover effects and financial crisis that are caused by the influence of the four agen... | Financial contagion |
c_evr5u8yorg2p | These effects can happen either globally, heavily affecting many countries in the world, or regionally, affecting only neighboring countries. The big players, who are more of the larger countries, usually have a global effect. The smaller countries are the players who usually have a regional effect. | Financial contagion |
c_7hl6vcqsr9zg | "These forms of co-movements would not normally constitute contagion, but if they occur during a period of crisis and their effect is adverse, they may be expressed as contagion. ""Fundamental causes of contagion include macroeconomic shocks that have repercussions on an international scale and local shocks transmitted... | Financial contagion |
c_sfl3xesleb2y | Common shocks can be similar to the effects of financial links. "A financial crisis in one country can lead to direct financial effects, including reductions in trade credits, foreign direct investment, and other capital flows abroad." Financial links come from financial globalization since countries try to be more eco... | Financial contagion |
c_9iutboyess30 | Allen and Gale (2000), and Lagunoff and Schreft (2001) analyze financial contagion as a result of linkages among financial intermediaries. The former provide a general equilibrium model to explain a small liquidity preference shock in one region can spread by contagion throughout the economy and the possibility of cont... | Financial contagion |
c_x6hu1lmk08e5 | Trade links is another type of shock that has its similarities to common shocks and financial links. These types of shocks are more focused on its integration causing local impacts. "Any major trading partner of a country in which a financial crisis has induced a sharp current depreciation could experience declining as... | Financial contagion |
c_rwws3m8akcyk | Kaminsky and Reinhart (2000) document the evidence that trade links in goods and services and exposure to a common creditor can explain earlier crises clusters, not only the debt crisis of the early 1980s and 1990s, but also the observed historical pattern of contagion. Competitive devaluation is also associated with f... | Financial contagion |
c_chr9ilcdcait | "Devaluation in a country hit by a crisis reduces the export competitiveness of the countries with which it competes in third markets, putting pressure on the currencies of other countries; especially when those currencies do not float freely." This action causes countries to act irrationally due to fear and doubt. "If... | Financial contagion |
c_6laah7fz9iz1 | "Another branch of contagion is a financial crisis, which is also referred to irrational phenomena. A financial crisis as a branch of contagion is formed when "a co-movement occurs, even when there are no global shocks and interdependence and fundamentals are not factors." It is caused by any of the four agents' behavi... | Financial contagion |
c_w863dugk01of | Some examples that can cause contagion are increased risk aversion, lack of confidence, and financial fears. Under the correlated information channel, price changes in one market are perceived as having implications for the values of assets in other markets, causing their prices to change as well (King and Wadhwani (19... | Financial contagion |
c_saw67k1o2ql6 | This behavior will effectively transmit the shock. Out of the four agents, an investor's behavior seems to be one of the biggest one that can impact a country's financial system. | Financial contagion |
c_zfvbk76rvz2b | There are three different types of investor behaviors, which generally are considered rational or irrational and individually or collectively. The first type of behavior is when "investors take action that is ex-ante individually rational but lead to excessive co-movements – excessive in the sense that they cannot be e... | Financial contagion |
c_xy27oq1m4yra | The first sub-category is liquidity and incentive problems. A reduction of equity prices can result in a loss of money for investors. "These losses may induce investors to sell off securities in other markets to raise cash in anticipation of a higher frequency of redemptions." | Financial contagion |
c_7eyqm545x8ok | These liquidity problems are also challenges for banks, specifically commercial banks. Incentive problems can also have the same effects as liquidity problems. For instance, the first signs of a crisis may cause investors to sell their holdings in some countries, resulting in equity and different asset markets in econo... | Financial contagion |
c_8a1c9a5uvtpe | This causes the value of currencies in these economies to also decrease. The second sub-category is information asymmetries and coordination problems. This type of investor behavior can either be considered rational or irrational. | Financial contagion |
c_zcffrcqvernz | This sub-category is when one group, or country, has more or significantly better information compared to another group or country. This can cause a market failure problem, which could potentially cause a financial crisis. The second type of investor behavior concentrates on multiple equilibriums. | Financial contagion |
c_yo2ghq9ko1h6 | It focuses on the investor's behavioral changes when the financial market can have multiple equilibrium changes. Thus, "contagion occurs when a crisis in one financial market causes another financial market to move or jump to a bad equilibrium, characterized by a devaluation, a drop in asset prices, capital outflows, o... | Financial contagion |
c_s93ynw2h9qu6 | It can make investors adjust their behaviors after a financial transaction occurs internationally or an initial crisis occurs. These behaviors can lead to spillover effect, causing contagion. In addition, there are some less-developed explanations for financial contagion. | Financial contagion |
c_kiium8apgymz | Some explanations for financial contagion, especially after the Russian default in 1998, are based on changes in investor "psychology", "attitude", and "behavior". This stream of research date back to early studies of crowd psychology of Mackay (1841) and classical early models of disease diffusion were applied to fina... | Financial contagion |
c_qe21nwllrkyz | Faced with a choice between two identical piles of food, ants switch periodically from one pile to the other. Kirman supposes that there are N ants and that each switch randomly between piles with probability ε (this prevents the system getting stuck with all at one pile or the other), and imitates a randomly chosen ot... | Financial contagion |
c_gvvnc4joz16y | They also find market sentiments can more influence prices but less on quantities in Latin America, compared with Asian countries. Besides, there are some researches on geographic factors driving the contagion. De Gregorio and Valdes (2001) examine how the 1982 debt crisis, the 1994 Mexican crisis, and the 1997 Asian c... | Financial contagion |
c_gzdw25t1h48b | The term "contagion" was first introduced in July 1997, when the currency crisis in Thailand quickly spread throughout East Asia and then on to Russia and Brazil. Even developed markets in North America and Europe were affected, as the relative prices of financial instruments shifted and caused the collapse of Long-Ter... | Financial contagion |
c_1jsdarf1vxp9 | This caused economists to realize the importance of financial contagion and produced a large volume of researches on it. Yet, there were episodes of international financial crisis that occurred before the introduction of the term contagion. Some analysts, including Bordo and Murshid, identify the crisis that happened i... | Financial contagion |
c_7evsxha5gk3x | "The liberation of Latin American in the early 1820s led to a massive inflow of capital from Britain to finance the exploitation of gold and silver mines and of sovereign loans to the newly independent republics." Between new industries beginning to grow, an increase in foreign influence, and a liberal monetary expansi... | Financial contagion |
c_3we3ny2ioem2 | The stock market crashed in October, which triggered a banking crisis around December. This crisis spread throughout the continent. "This crisis spread to Latin America as the overseas loans were cut off, a decline in investment and exports reduced tax revenues and led to sovereign debt defaults across the region. | Financial contagion |
c_v2sltgsyrl7u | "One of the biggest worldwide crises was the stock market crash on Wall Street in October 1929. The failure from 1929–33 was foreshadowed by collapses in commodity prices in multiple emerging nations. The stock market boom in New York by 1928 choked off U.S. | Financial contagion |
c_uotwye7atk7x | capital flows to central Europe and Latin America and precipitated currency crises in a number of countries (Australia, Argentina, Uruguay, and Brazil) and early in 1929. The Wall Street crash caused stock market scares globally. This is known as the Great Depression. | Financial contagion |
c_bb0xg4mwur5y | The U.S. crisis in 1929 turned into the Great Depression by 1930 and 1931 because the Federal Reserve was unsuccessful at relieving multiple banking panics. The resultant collapse in prices and output worldwide forced sovereign borrowers to cut back on servicing their debts and then to default, precipitating a collapse... | Financial contagion |
c_ol5249fklhv4 | National banks continuously borrowed from countries abroad and continuously lent within their own country. At the time, it did not seem excessive, but it appeared so in the aftermath. | Financial contagion |
c_fwwsnrjcgnno | Bad loans were made, risks were taken due to misunderstandings, and the level of debt continued to grow. "After the start of the crisis, national equity betas increased and average returns fell substantially". The first currency that faced problems was the Thai baht. | Financial contagion |
c_y55bsju42dxg | With the Thai baht having issues, it doubled the debt of Thai organizations, which started the spread of the crisis to other countries. As this was happening, investors started reevaluating their investments in this region. This caused the flow of money to disappear rapidly, resulting in the growth of this crisis. | Financial contagion |
c_1gxt2itbphxk | The crisis of 2007–08 has been identified as the most severe since the 1930 Great Depression. Major financial institutions around the world were greatly affected. The history of the 2007–08 crisis traces back to the bursting of the housing bubble in the United States, and the increase in mortgage defaults. | Financial contagion |
c_j91m19mt8vda | This came about as a result of the mandate by the U.S. Congress for the Federal National Mortgage to increase access to low-income housing. | Financial contagion |
c_c28zs1e42q1z | As a result of the high default rates, many financial institutions across the U.S. were affected. | Financial contagion |
c_bb95qtjxxvwo | Although the U.S. government had attempted to salvage the situation through liquidity doses, the crisis further deepened. By March 2008, Bear Sterns, a U.S. | Financial contagion |
c_tan2p139rvwl | investment bank, required the efforts of the government to be rescued. At this stage, it was clear that the crisis had deepened. Other financial institutions, such as the Lehman bank and American International Group (AIG), started to feel the effects of the crisis. | Financial contagion |
c_liqjpt49k2ir | The severity of this crisis grew, and most U.S. and European banks were pulling back their international loans. This move caused major financial problems across the world, especially for those countries that rely heavily on international borrowing. | Financial contagion |
c_obnzbae03el3 | Financial contagion was felt severely, especially in countries whose financial systems were vulnerable due to local housing bubbles and current account deficits. Some of the countries affected were Germany, Iceland, Spain, Britain and New Zealand among others. Many analysts and governments had failed to predict the rea... | Financial contagion |
c_zsj0wqcapaey | Financial contagion is one of the main causes of financial regulation.

c_3c0405wolb45 | Therefore, a better domestic financial regulation structure can improve an economy's liquidity and limit its exposure to contagion. A better understanding of financial contagion between financial intermediaries, including banking, rating agencies and hedge funds will be conducive to making financial reform in both U.S.... | Financial contagion |
c_nlsamibbvghc | The econometric literature on testing for contagion has focused on increases in the correlation of returns between markets during periods of crisis. Forbes and Rigobon (2002) described the current imprecision and disagreement surrounding the term contagion. It proposes a concrete definition, a significant increase in c... | Financial contagion |

c_ieva9k222yuz | In their specific application, Forbes and Rigobon (2002) estimated a variant of this model to study contagion between countries. They first estimated the variance-covariance matrices for each pair of countries during the stable period, turmoil period, and full period. Then, they use the estimated variance-covariance ma... | Financial contagion |
c_gbb90zan093h | As Pesaran and Pick (2007) observe, however, financial contagion is a difficult system to estimate econometrically. To disentangle contagion from interaction effects, county-specific variables have to be used to instrument foreign returns. Choosing the crisis period introduces sample selection bias, and it has to be as... | Financial contagion |
c_5uhzr6as9veg | In consequence, there appears to be no strong consensus in the empirical literature as to whether contagion occurs between markets, or how strong it is. The financial and economic literature presents ample evidence that in time of crisis co-movements between the returns of assets increase. This increase in correlation ... | Financial contagion |
c_81ecmncl8xa3 | The increase in correlation can be explained by a procyclical forbearance policy of regulators. Since regulators have greater forbearance during systemic crises, the increase in correlation creates incentives for banks to herd and become interconnected so that when they fail, they fail together, increasing their chance... | Financial contagion |
c_1smkpkx55ov9 | Recently, Nasini and Erdemlioglu have proposed a model to study how the effects on stock price dynamics of different network propagation channels vary according to the state of the economy.

c_odjayklhqi8o | People are drawn to someone with a similar lifestyle and standard of living. These people have a higher chance of common personal tastes, opinions and values with one another, making it easier to establish affinitive relations. These aspects can be assimilated through the different social networks. | Filter theory (sociology) |
c_ue79359cnir6 | Contrary to popular belief, having a common profession is not the strongest predictor of compatibility; educational homophily trends towards confirming cultural differences and similarities, which are stronger than occupational stratification. In essence, working in proximity with someone in a similar work force does n... | Filter theory (sociology) |
c_hhi295d5uib3 | A study carried out by sociologist Robert F. Winch on twenty five couples for the purpose of testing out the theory of the ways in which complementariness appears to function in mate-selection.
