International bank lending has risen to ½ of GDP in industrial
countries
Increasing share of government bonds held by foreigners
Increasing orientation of the foreign private sector issuers of bonds
and securities to the international markets
 Proliferation of different types of mobile investment funds

EXTENSIONS
Positive effects:
capital inflows represent critical part in development of some
countries
capital inflows create spill-over effect – macro management
capital mobility allows risk spreading through portfolio diversification
Adverse effects:
international capital flows can be very volatile
capital inflows can cause unsustainable inflationary pressures
capital flows can lead to short term misalignment of the exchange rate
capital mobility can weaken country’s tax base by forcing
governments to offer excessive enticement to investors
