1 GLOBAL IMBALANCES, CAPITAL FLOWS, AND THE CRISIS Gian Maria Milesi-Ferretti International Monetary Fund
2 Global imbalances have declined..
3 Even though stock positions are still expanding Net foreign assets (in percent of world GDP) US JPN Eur surplus CHN EMA OIL ROW Eur deficit Discrepancy
4 Imbalances in the euro area Joint work with Ruo Chen and Thierry Tressel A lot of emphasis on intra-euro area factors in explaining internal imbalances Loss in competitiveness Paper stresses external factors and shocks and pattern of external financing
5 Imbalances in the euro area: REER and Asymmetric Trade Shocks Euro appreciation, 2000-onwards Trade with non-euro countries explains a large share of worsened CA in Southern Europe Imports from China Increase in commodity prices In contrast, Germany s TB gained from rising exports to China, CEE and oil exporters Exports of investment goods to China Commodity exporters have high demand for German K- goods
6 Imbalances in the euro area: Financing of deficits Southern deficits financed mainly by euro area investors. Outside investors purchased German and French securities External exposure and public debt Private sector sold government bonds to non-residents and banks raised funds overseas. Proceeds used to finance C & I worsened private balance sheets, increased foreign exposure to public debt and domestic banks
7 Share of outstanding debt securities held outside the euro area (2008) 40% 35% 30% 25% 20% 15% 10% 5% 0%
8 Is Rebalancing Underway? Work with Philip Lane on factors explaining contraction in CA balances Hypothesis: unwinding of pre-crisis excesses Easy credit Asset price bubbles Rosy growth expectations
9 Estimation of excess CA Panel regressions, advanced economies and emerging markets, , 4-year averages Determinants include: Demographics Level of development Fiscal balance Oil prices etc.

15 Summary Very strong CA adjustment after Reduction of pre-crisis excesses CA reduction reflecting primarily compression of demand and output in countries with excess deficits, and swings in other investment flows Modest role of REER adjustment Role of external finance Looking forward: durable rebalancing or cyclical compression? What are the output gaps in deficit countries?
16 Capital flows have recovered only for emerging markets Capital inflows (annualized rates, billions USD) Advanced economies Emerging markets -6000
