(VII) INTERNATIONAL INTEGRATION OF FINANCIAL MARKETS LECTURES 20 - 22 Question 1: What are the arguments in favor of open financial markets? Question 2: Does it really work this way? Question 3: How integrated are financial markets, and what are the remaining barriers? Advantages of financial opening • For a successfully-developing country, with high return to domestic capital, investment can be financed more cheaply by borrowing abroad than out of domestic saving alone. • Symmetrically, investors in rich countries can earn a higher return on their saving by investing in emerging markets than they could domestically. • Households can smooth consumption over time. • In the presence of uncertainty, investors can diversify away some risks. Classic gains from trade future wine In autarky, Portugal can only consume what it produces. • Under free trade, Portugal responds to new relative prices by shifting into wine, where it has a comparative advantage…. (Price mechanism puts it on full-employment PPF & at the point maximizing consumers’ utility.) Textiles are cheaper on world markets. • • …Portuguese consumption in textiles rises, which it imports, thereby reaching a higher indifference curve. textiles today Next, we do the gains from trade again, substituting period 0 & period 1, in place of wine & textiles. Intertemporal optimization We will maximize the intertemporal utility function: u[C0] +βu[C1] where C0 ≡ consumption today; C1 ≡ consumption tomorrow; u'(C) > 0; u''(C) < 0; β ≡ subjective discount factor, reflecting patience. 0<β<1. Total resources available = Y0 + 1 Y 1+𝑟 1. where Y0 ≡ income today; Y1 ≡ income tomorrow; r ≡ real interest rate. Total spending discounted to today = C0 + 1 1+𝑟 C1 . Budget constraint: C1 = (1+r)(Y0-C0 ) + Y1. Intertemporal utility subject to budget constraint: u[C0] + β u[(1+r)(Y0-C0 ) + Y1] To maximize, differentiate with respect to C0: Euler equation: u'[C0] + β u'[C1](-(1+r)) = 0. u'[C0]/u'[C1] = β (1+r) A simple functional form for intertemporal utility Let’s try the case of log utility: log[C0] + β log[C1] (a special case of iso-elastic utility functions) Then Euler equation u'[C0]/u'[C1] = β (1+r) becomes [1/C0]/[1/C1] = β(1+r). C1 => = β (1+r). C0 Result: Agents choose higher consumption tomorrow than today if r is high and/or they are patient. Aggregating up, gives a theory to determine the interest rate: C1 1+r = / β => r > 0 if opportunities grow over time C0 and people are impatient. Welfare gains from open capital markets: The intertemporal optimization theory of the current account 1. Even without intertemporal reallocation of output, Y0 & Y1, consumers are better off (borrowing from abroad to smooth consumption). 2. In addition, firms can borrow abroad to finance investment. WTP, 2007 Prof.J.Frankel The intertemporal-optimization theory of the current account, and welfare gains from international borrowing 1. Financial opening with fixed output High interest rate encourages agents to postpone consumption. future Y1 Assume interest rates in the outside world are closer to 0 ● than they were at home ● => domestic residents borrow from abroad, so that they can consume more in Period 0. (the slope of the line is closer to -1.0). => C0↑ Y0 Source: Caves, Frankel & Jones (2007) Chapter 21.5, World Trade & Payments, 10th ed. Prof.J.Frankel Welfare is higher at point B. today The intertemporal optimization theory of the current account, and welfare gains from international borrowing, continued 2. Financial opening with elastic output Assume interest rates in the outside world are closer to 0 than future they were at home. ● Shift production from Period 0 to 1, and yet consume more in Period 0, thanks to foreign capital flows. ● ● today Welfare is higher at point C. Source: Caves, Frankel & Jones (2007) Chapter 21.5, World Trade &Payments. Does this theory ever work in practice? • Norway discovered NorthSea oil in 1970s. It temporarily ran a large CA deficit, to finance investment } (while the oil fields were being developed) • & to finance consumption (as was rational, since Norwegians knew they would be richer in the future). } ITF220 Prof.J.Frankel Subsequently, Norway ran big CA surpluses. Effect when countries open their stock markets to foreign investors, on cost of capital. Peter Henry (2007) “Capital Account Liberalization: Theory, Evidence, and Speculation,“ JEL, 45(4): 887-935. Liberalization occurs in “Year 0.” Cost of capital falls, on average. Effect when countries open their stock markets to foreign investors, on investment. Peter Henry (2007) “Capital Account Liberalization: Theory, Evidence, and Speculation,“ JEL, 45(4): 887-935. Liberalization occurs in “Year 0.” Investment rises, on average. Indications that financial markets do not always work as advertised 1) The Lucas Paradox 2) Pro-cyclical capital flows 3) Crises Indications that financial markets do not always work as advertised 1) The Lucas paradox: • Capital flows do not systematically go from rich countries (high K/L) to poor (low K/L). – Robert Lucas (1990), “Why Doesn’t Capital Flow from Rich to Poor Countries?” AER. – Capital “flows uphill.” • Possible explanation: In many developing countries investors cannot reap the potential returns to capital due to inferior institutions, especially inadequate protection of property rights. • -- Alfaro, Kalemli-Ozcan & Volosovych (2008). Indications that financial markets do not always work as advertised 2) Pro-cyclicality: • Capital flows tend to be pro-cyclical, not counter-cyclical. – E.g., Kaminsky, Reinhart & Végh (2005) “When it rains, it pours.” • Possible explanations: In developing countries, • • (i) given imperfect creditworthiness, investors require collateral, e.g., tangible foreign exchange earnings. The value of the collateral is higher in booms than busts. • (ii) Fluctuations that appear cyclical, in truth may signal changes in long-run growth prospects. • -- Aguiar & Gopinath (2007). Indications that financial markets do not always work as advertised 3) Crises • Debt crises, currency crises, banking crises The 1982 international debt crisis; 1992-93 crisis in the European Exchange Rate Mechanism; EM currency crashes of the late 1990s: 1994-95 Mexico; 1997 E.Asia, esp. Thailand, Korea & Indonesia; 1998 Russia, 2000 Turkey, 2001 Argentina, 2002 Uruguay. 2008-2015 2008-09 GFC (U.S. & U.K.: “North Atlantic Financial Crisis” !) Iceland, Hungary, Latvia, Ukraine, Pakistan…; The 2010-15 euro crisis (Greece, Ireland, Portugal, Spain, Cyprus…). Indications that financial markets do not always work as advertised, cont. • Do investors punish countries when and only when governments follow bad policies? Large inflows often give way suddenly to large outflows, with little news appearing in between to explain the change in sentiment. Contagion sometimes spreads to countries that are unrelated, or where fundamentals appear stronger. Recessions have been so big, it seems hard to argue that the system works well. Empirical studies of financial openness and economic performance, reviewed by Kose, Prasad, Rogoff & Wei (2009), often find little systematic relationship, in either direction. Some studies find that financial openness is helpful only if countries have already attained an adequate level of: • income -- Biscarri, Edwards, & Perez de Grarcia (2003); Klein & Olivei (1999); Edwards (2001); Martin & Rey (2002); Ranciere, Tornell & Westermann (2008); • financial depth, institutional quality & other reforms -- Kaminsky & Schmukler (2003); Chinn & Ito (2002); Klein (2003); Obstfeld (2009); Kose, Prasad & Taylor (2009); Wei & Wu (2002); Prasad, Rajan & Subramanian (2007). • Or macroeconomic discipline. -- Arteta, Eichengreen & Wyplosz (2001). => Conventional wisdom regarding sequencing: it is better to liberalize financial markets only after other reforms have been put in place. -- McKinnon (1993), Edwards (1984, 2008), and Kaminsky & Schmukler (2003).

Interest Rate Parity: Why does i not equal i* ? I. Currency factors • Expected currency depreciation • Exchange risk premium The currency premium can be measured as the forward discount, or swap rate, or differential between domestic & local $-linked bonds. II. Country factors … Decomposition of the nominal interest differential i – i* ≡ country premium + currency premium e.g., ≡ ( i – i* - fd ) + fd fd ≡ (fd - Δse) + (Δse) exchange + expected risk nominal premium depreciation The country premium could be measured by the sovereign spread, Credit Default Swap, or covered interest differential (i-i*-fd). The currency premium could be measured by the forward discount (fd), currency swap rate, or local spread of $-linked vs. domestic-currency bonds. WHY DOES i NOT EQUAL i* ? II. Country factors, continued • Default risk – • reflected in sovereign spreads or Credit Default Swaps • Capital controls – • reflected in covered interest differentials • Taxes on cross-border investments • Transaction costs • Imperfect information • Risk of future capital controls Sovereign spreads Brazilian interest rate decomposed country premium + currency premium + LIBOR } } Total spread (Brazil rate minus LIBOR) = Currency premium (forward premium) + Country premium (spread) 1995-98 Sovereign spreads Mexican spread decomposed: currency premium + country premium 2004-13 Total spread for Mexican sovereign bonds over US Treasury bill interest rate Currency premium ≡ pesos/$ swap rate Country premium ≡ total spread adjusted for currency premium Total spread over US T bill rate } Country premium Currency swap rate Wenxin Du & Jesse Schreger, “Sovereign Risk, Currency Risk & Corporate Balance Sheets,” Oct. 2014 Sovereign spreads, 2003-06 650 Spreads were low for Emerging Market bonds in 2006, and even lower for South Africa. 550 EMBI+ 450 350 250 EMBI+ RSA EMBI+ 150 50 2Jun03 } 30- 26- 26- 28- 26- 25- 23- 21- 19- 20- 21- 18- 18- 14- 14- 13- 15- 12- 10Jul- Sep- Nov- Jan- Mar- May- Jul- Sep- Nov- Jan- Mar- May- Jul- Sep- Nov- Jan- Mar- May- Jul03 03 03 04 04 04 04 04 04 05 05 05 05 05 05 06 06 06 06 Global investors were under-pricing risk -- as also reflected in US corporate spreads, options prices, etc. All of them shot back up in 2008.

Forward discount fd (F-S)/S => 1 + fd F/S => (1 + iTurkey ) = (1 + fd) (1 + iUS). = (1 + fd + iUS + fd iUS). Because (fd iUS) is small, iTurkey ≈ fd + iUS . => If the Turkish nominal interest rate exceeds the U.S. rate, then the lira sells at a discount in the forward exchange market. Liberalization in a country that had controls on capitalinflows. Domestic & offshore interest rates, Germany, 1973-74 } From: Marston (1989) Liberalization in a country that had controls on outflows. France, 1973-1993: Domestic and Offshore Interest Rates { From: Mussa and Goldstein,(1993). France kept its controls on capital outflows until the late 1980s. They produced an offshore-onshore differential, which shot up whenever there was speculation of a franc devaluation. Again, the differential disappeared after controls were removed. ITF220 Prof.J.Frankel In late 2008 Covered Interest Parity surprisingly failed, in the Global Financial Crisis rush to the $ as safe haven. Covered interest differentials, using Overnight Index Swap interest rates, 2003-2011 Significant determinants are apparently counterparty risk & liquidity, proxied by financial stock CDS, VIX, implied fx volatility, OIS bid-ask spreads & Fed swap lines.

Real interest parity } III QUANTITY TESTS: some show rising integration IMF Quantity tests point to surprisingly low international integration 1. Home bias in portfolios: Do citizens of each country hold a basket of assets that is optimally diversified internationally? No 2. Consumption risk-sharing: Are countries’ consumption levels correlated with each other more than country incomes? No 3. Feldstein-Horioka test: Do countries’ Investment rates vary independently of their National Saving rates? No Feldstein-Horioka test of capital mobility Regression: (I/GDP) = α + β (NS/GDP) + v. Feldstein (1980) argued that if capital were perfectly mobile, we would find β = 0: countries with good investment opportunities could borrow abroad to finance them. Instead, β was much closer to 1: Countries are apparently savings-constrained. The Feldstein-Horioka, still as high as 0.7 in the 1980s, declined in the 90s and until 2007.
