The author compares the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic with the Bitcoin price explosion and adopts the SIR epidemiological model. The SIR model operates by categorizing the population of individuals into susceptible (S), infected (I), and removed (R). In the case of Bitcoin, open wallets represent the susceptible population, and the infection starts with a single individual. After conducting four estimation trials, the model that uses the recovery rate derived from the Bitcoin price downtrend and the infection rate from the upward trend has the highest accuracy. The estimation deviates from the Bitcoin price explosions by only three days. Previous studies commonly use faster-than-exponential growth or stationarity tests to identify bubble formations. This paper introduces a novel approach that employs epidemiological models to analyze Bitcoin’s explosive price behavior.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48119,"journal":{"name":"Journal of International Financial Markets Institutions & Money","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141286511","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Revisiting the theory of intertemporal choice, this paper suggests that the deterioration of macroeconomic fundamentals that favor capital flows from richer to poorer economies can lead investment and savings to correlate across countries even without frictions to capital mobility. I test this hypothesis against a data set of 12 European economies spanning since the inception of the Maastricht treaty and ending immediately before the start of the Covid-19 pandemic. I find that the investment-savings correlation is generally low both across and within open economies, aligning with the theoretical stylized fact. However, this can be jeopardized when low-income economies accumulate large net stocks of foreign liabilities coupled with sluggish prospects for productivity growth. Ultimately, if investment and savings are not managed in line with macro fundamentals, foreign investors eventually impose a premium on new liabilities, raising the cost of financing investment with foreign funds and leading the correlation between investment and savings to rise both across and within countries.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48119,"journal":{"name":"Journal of International Financial Markets Institutions & Money","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1042443124000726/pdfft?md5=a2fa9b49c597dac81be85dd3f3b5735a&pid=1-s2.0-S1042443124000726-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141090146","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We derive what variables the central bank should look at when setting the interest rate to implement a given objective. Exchange market pressure (EMP), the tendency of the exchange rate to change, emerges as the key variable. This yields a policy rule for the interest rate where EMP is added to, say, a Taylor rule. The coefficient for EMP depends on two structural parameters, namely the effectiveness of the interest rate to ward off depreciation, and the degree of exchange rate management. The rule can implement many regimes, from floating to intermediate to fixed rates. It can be applied to many models, and we illustrate it in a New Keynesian model for a small open economy.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48119,"journal":{"name":"Journal of International Financial Markets Institutions & Money","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1042443124000714/pdfft?md5=25cf74dd671b25309c24424c3752d780&pid=1-s2.0-S1042443124000714-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141067258","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study examines the impact of Fintech on financial stability for a group of 25 countries during 2013–2020. We adopt the novel Fintech-enabled financing volume to directly measure Fintech development. We utilise both the aggregate and disaggregated level of Fintech financing; the latter includes crowdfunding, business lending and consumer lending, each has a different funding process and default rates. We account for spatial dependence in financial stability across countries by employing various spatial models. Our findings first reveal that there is positive spatial dependence of financial stability across countries. It implies that financial stability has a positive spillover to neighbouring countries and validates the necessity of spatial analysis. Second, based on the Spatial Durbin Model which best describes our data, Fintech financing makes a positive local and cross-border contribution towards financial stability, irrespective of alternative weight matrices and sample sizes. Such positive impact is more profound in countries with smaller sizes of Fintech financing volume, and the cross-border effect is stronger with closer geographic proximity. Finally, crowdfunding enhances financial stability, whilst consumer lending has a contrasting destabilising effect.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48119,"journal":{"name":"Journal of International Financial Markets Institutions & Money","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1042443124000684/pdfft?md5=e5a4ca6c443783fef680c5a65393e7dc&pid=1-s2.0-S1042443124000684-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140893964","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
