Impact Of European Debt Crisis On
U.S. And Emerging Markets Economy
An European Sovereign Debt Crisis Could at least affect the U.S
Economy In The Following Tow Respects:
1. 
1. First, the devaluation of the Euro triggered by the debt crisis
will make American exports more expensive.
ü  Euro has depreciated against US dollar by nearly 15%
ü  Government spending and exports have been the only two growth
engines of the American economy.
ü  With tepid consumer demand and very weak labor market, consumer
spending recovery is less likely to be quick and robust.
ü  One way to spur corporate spending is to sell overseas.

Impact Of European Debt Crisis on U.S.
And Emerging Markets Economy
2.The second big worry remains with the banking sector
ü  The financial markets across the Atlantic are highly
integrated with each other and hence affect each other

Impact Of European Debt Crisis On
U.S. And Emerging Markets Economy
ü  The worst case scenario would be if Greece, Spain or other
eurozone countries defaulted on their debt.
ü  Banks, the primary holders of sovereign debt, would face
huge losses with smaller banks collapsing.
ü  In a panic, they'd cut back on lending to each other, and
the LIBOR rate would skyrocket like it did in 2008.
ü  The European Central Bank (ECB) holds a lot of sovereign
debt, so its future would be at risk.
ü  The rippling effect of uncontrolled sovereign debt defaults
could create a recession, if not a global depression.

Impact Of European Debt Crisis on U.S.
And Emerging Markets Economy
ü  It would also be worse than the 1998 sovereign debt crisis.
When Russia defaulted, other emerging market countries did too.
ü  This time, it's not the only emerging markets, but the developed markets
that are in danger of default also.
ü  If sovereign debt defaults were left unchecked, the resulting panic could
cause a shutdown of credit, in which even the United States might have
trouble funding its debt.
