We use a dynamic spatial general equilibrium model of international investment and production to investigate the real implications of the last five decades of financial globalization. We introduce a wedge accounting framework to estimate country- and time-varying measures of outward and inward...

We review the literature on geoeconomics, defined as the field of study that links economics and geopolitics (power rivalry). We describe what geoeconomics is and which questions it addresses, focusing on five main subfields. First, the use of geoeconomic policy tools such as sanctions and...

Starting from the Plaza Agreement, which in 1985 proposed to regulate the functioning of the dollar standard, the international monetary system has experienced a series of evolutions following the collapse of the USSR, the development of globalization, culminating in the birth of the WTO and the...

Global output growth slowed down only slightly and proved resilient amid trade conflicts and the resulting increase in uncertainty. World trade has even risen sharply. Both trade and investment continue to be buoyed by the boom in AI-related technologies. Monetary policy in the United States is...

How do violent conflicts shape cross-border lending? Using data on syndicated loans by 14,021 creditors to firms in 179 countries (1989-2020), we document a dual effect: foreign banks reduce overall lending relative to domestic banks but significantly increase financing to military and dual-use...

Andersen and Sánchez Serrano (2024) define a methodology for building a map of the euro area financial system using data from the quarterly sectoral accounts of the euro area (complemented with data from other sources). This map can be useful for macroprudential authorities in regularly...

This paper provides novel empirical evidence on portfolio rebalancing in international bond markets through the prism of investors' demand for bonds. Using a granular dataset of global government and corporate bond holdings by mutual funds domiciled in the world's two largest currency areas, I...

The global economy is facing increased economic policy uncertainty in a phase of already moderate momentum. The announcements made by the incoming US administration are the main reason for this. However, it is unclear what measures will actually be taken. This forecast is based on the assumption...

In this paper, we study how the volatility of both realized and expected macroeconomic variables relates to the variation in exchange rate volatility through the prism of the Great Moderation hypothesis. We find significant heterogeneity in exchange rate trend volatility across currency pairs...

Observed international investment positions and cross-country heterogeneity in rates of return to capital are hard to reconcile with frictionless capital markets. In this paper, we develop a theory of international capital allocation: a multi-country dynamic spatial general equilibrium model in...

The euro was launched, on 1 January 1999, as a common currency for members of the European Union that complied with the Maastricht Treaty. The Maastricht Treaty calls for the coordination of major macroeconomic policies, such as inflation, budget balance, public debt, and long-term interest...

This article provides an analysis of the economic cost incurred by the world through the use of the fiat international reserve currency since the end of the 1971 gold standard system. The article uses the Quantity Theory of Money to provide an empirical manifestation of how reserve currency...

We examine the impact of the last five decades of financial globalization on world GDP and income distribution, using a novel multi-country dynamic general equilibrium model that incorporates a demand system for international assets. We introduce, estimate and validate new country-level measures...

This book features a selection of papers presented at the Franco-Japanese Conference on Asian and International Economies in the era of globalization. In light of shifts in international economic relations, the globalization of labor markets, and the dynamics of migration, this book explores...
