Since 1990, major banking and current crises have occurred in many
countries throughout the world - including Mexico and Latin America
in 1994-95, East Asia in 1997-98, and Russia and Brazil in 1998 -
with large costs both to the individual countries experiencing the
crises and to other nations. As a result, considerable effort has
been expended by economists and policymakers to identify the causes
of these crises and to design programs with the aim both of
preventing similar crises from occurring in the future, and of
minimizing the costs when these do occur. These studies have cut
across national boundaries, being undertaken by individual
researchers and organizations in particular countries, as well as
by international institutions. This book collects the papers and
discussants' comments presented at a conference co-sponsored by the
Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago and the Bank for International
Settlements in Basel, Switzerland, and held in Chicago, in early
October 1999. The purpose of the conference was to identify and
discuss the lessons to be learned from these crises. Topics
discussed included reviews of the crises in the individual
countries and regions; analyses of the policy responses, both by
the affected countries and by official international institutions;
what has been learned from these crises; deposit insurance reform;
the design of bank capital regulation; the role of bank supervision
and regulation; and the future of official international financial
institutions, such as the International Monetary Fund and the World
Bank. The conference participants included a broad range of
academic, industry, and regulatory experts from more than
twenty-five countries. Because of the timeliness of the conference
and the wide-ranging expertise of the participants, the papers in
this book should be of significant interest both to students of
financial crises and to domestic and international policymakers.
