Special Session on
“International Capital Flows and Emerging Markets”
CALL FOR PAPERS
The recent financial crisis has witnessed massive global movements of financial capital and
emerging market (Ems) have been at the center of these movements. Capital Flows to Ems are
characterized by periods of rapid inflows followed, equally in many cases, by outflows.
Papers in this session examine various aspects of EM capital flows such as the economic
and/or political factors behind decisions by global investors to invest in various forms of
international capital (e.g. foreign direct investment, portfolio equity investment, bonds, etc.),
possible diversification benefits to foreign investors from investing in Ems, the benefits/costs
of these flows to EMs and the role of sovereign credit ratings in influencing investor
decisions.
