Abstract

This chapter analyzes the international transmission of a global financial stress shock. The authors use a large-scale factor-augmented vector autoregressive model, estimated over quarterly macroeconomic and financial data for 40 countries. They identify the shock using a combination of contemporaneous zero and sign restrictions on impulse responses and narrative restrictions. Emerging economies suffer larger real output losses than advanced economies from a global financial stress shock. Advanced economies benefit from safe-haven capital flows and are better able to stabilize their economies through more active monetary and fiscal policy. The shock gives rise to co- movement in financial asset prices and quantities across countries. Hence, financial channels are crucial in the transmission mechanism.
