The international asset prices show evidence of the asymmetric or state-dependent propagation of U.S. monetary shocks. Moreover, the results indicate that the nature of the nonlinearity in the propagation of the shocks differs across two asset classes, bond yields, and equity prices. Contractionary U.S. monetary policy shocks are quite influential in sovereign bond markets, while their impacts are largely insignificant in stock markets; the opposite is true for expansionary monetary policy shocks. These results are typical across open economies and suggest that U.S. monetary announcements and the subsequent reactions of international risk premiums may play a critical role in international shock propagation.</p>","PeriodicalId":46336,"journal":{"name":"International Finance","volume":"23 3","pages":"350-369"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2020-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1111/infi.12371","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47769601","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The analysis finds that the structural reversal of the correlation in the United States and Germany largely depends on the dynamics of inflation, which has gone from counter-cyclical to pro-cyclical. In turn, inflation is likely to be pro-cyclical when it is low or negative and propelled by demand rather than supply shocks. A negative correlation implies that bonds can hedge the risk of stocks when the economy is in poor condition, thus increasing the demand for bonds. However, central-bank purchases of long-term bonds have increased the correlation and made portfolio immunization more difficult for investors.</p>","PeriodicalId":46336,"journal":{"name":"International Finance","volume":"23 3","pages":"392-416"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2020-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1111/infi.12369","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46723346","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Stronger trade ties with the United States (the euro area) contribute to a higher dollar (euro) share in the currency denomination of international debt securities. We also find that absent from the global financial crisis (GFC), the dollar (euro) share in debt denomination would have been higher (lower) than the observed shares in the postcrisis period.

This study theoretically analyzes the supply side of the bank loan market to examine how this weak banking competition influences the effectiveness of monetary policies. In a Cournot game, there are efficient banks, and inefficient banks that must pay a risk premium in the call market. Less competitive banks either go out of business or merge with efficient banks. The call rate and risk premium are central banks’ policy instruments. This paper's main finding is that, with a few exceptions, the weak competition reduces the effectiveness of monetary policies because concentration decreases the volume of bank loans. However, concentration makes monetary policy via a reduced risk premium more effective when this policy targets inefficient banks that do not exit or merge. In response to lending declines by efficient banks when they exit or merge, inefficient banks increase their lending activity.</p>","PeriodicalId":46336,"journal":{"name":"International Finance","volume":"23 2","pages":"277-296"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2019-12-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1111/infi.12364","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48292920","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Government consumption has, generally, been highly procyclical over time in this group of countries. However, sample averages hide serious heterogeneity across countries with the majority of them showing procyclical behaviour despite some positive signs of graduation from the “procyclicality trap” in a few cases. By means of weighted least squares regressions, we find that more developed African economies tend to have a smaller degree of government-consumption procyclicality. Countries with higher social fragmentation, and those that are more reliant on foreign aid inflows, tend to have a more procyclical government-consumption policy. Better governance promotes countercyclical-fiscal policy while increased democracy dampens it.
