How Do Credits Dollarize? The Role of Firm’s Natural Hedges, Banks’ Core and Non-Core Liabilities

Author

Abstract

We show that firms' natural hedges (e.g., export revenues) and banks' foreign currency (FX) liabilities strongly dollarize credits. In particular, banks' non-core FX liabilities (e.g., syndications) in average feed credit dollarization almost three times more than their core FX liabilities (e.g., deposits). More importantly, these channels are affected differently by local and global macroeconomic conditions.
