In an integrated world financial market, a financial crisis in a country can be rapidly transmitted to other countries, causing a global crisis. What kind of measures would you propose to prevent the recurrence of an Asia-type crisis.
Answer: Very first, there should be a multinational safety net to safeguard the world financial system from the Asia-type crisis. After that, international institutions such as IMF and the World Bank should monitor problematic countries much more closely and offer timely advice to those countries. Countries should be needed to fully disclose economic and financial information that is why devaluation surprises can be prevented. Third, countries should rely more on domestic savings and long-term foreign investments, as compared to short-term portfolio capital. There can be other suggestions.
