We assess the effect of the United States (US) and domestic monetary policies on emerging market economies (EMEs) using a panel factor-augmented vector autoregressive model. We find a US policy rate hike outstrips a tantamount hike in EME policy rates in its impacts on EMEs and discover that...

This paper distills and identifies global liquidity (GL) momenta from the macro-financial data of advanced economies through a factor model with sign restrictions as policy-driven, market-driven, and risk averseness factors. Using a panel factor-augmented VAR, we investigate responses of...

This paper analyzes the transmission of global liquidity from advanced economies to EMEs. We distill global liquidity (GL) momenta from the macro-financial data of advanced economies through a factor model. Using a panel factor-augmented VAR analysis, we then delve into EMEs' responses to shocks...

A discussion of the impact of hedge funds on the crisis is a recurring feature of every financial crisis. Even though the course of events in previous crises may have been very different, the criticism of hedge funds tends to be the same. This article discusses the impact of hedge funds on...

This paper investigates macroprudential policy effects on bank systemic risk and the role of inflation targeting in such effects. Using bank-level data for 45 countries comprising various monetary and exchange rate regimes, our regime-dependent dynamic panel regression results point to...

After a steady increase following the global financial crisis, private nonfinancial sector leverage rose further during the COVID-19 on the back of easy financial conditions induced by unprecedented policy support. We investigate the empirical relationships between increased leverage, financial...
