Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Capital Flows to Emerging Market Economies and “Original Sin Redux” | Markus' Academy | Ep. 09
Q: What practical policy tools could stabilize cross-border capital flows in crises?
Tools include FX swaps and Fed facilities like FEMA, as well as considerations for creating a unified or semi-autonomous framework that reduces abrupt outflows and provides liquidity during stress.
Capital Flows to Emerging Market Economies and “Original Sin Redux” | Markus' Academy | Ep. 09
Q: How do currency hedging practices differ between advanced economies and EMs?
Advanced economy investors often hedge currency risk when investing in other markets, whereas EM investors frequently invest unhedged to capture higher returns, accepting currency risk during good times and amplifying losses during crises.
Capital Flows to Emerging Market Economies and “Original Sin Redux” | Markus' Academy | Ep. 09
Q: Why is the US dollar considered a special case in the original sin framework?
Because US corporations typically borrow in dollars and the US dollar is the largest and most liquid bond market, which makes the dollar-denominated assets and funding flows dominant even for non-US borrowers.
How to Re-start the Economy after COVID-19 | Markus Academy | Ep. 04
Q: How would you enforce isolation if people test positive?
Start with voluntary compliance, provide support for isolation, and gradually introduce measures to improve adherence if needed; testing strategy should align with public health goals and minimize disruption to the economy.
How to Re-start the Economy after COVID-19 | Markus Academy | Ep. 04
Q: What about wearing masks?
Masks are a key barrier to transmission and should be considered as a mandatory measure where feasible, especially in public spaces, to reduce the spread while testing capacity is scaled up.
