Contents Financial Crises and Financial Instability: Definitions and Principles -- Stylized Facts and Standard Theory of Financial Crises -- A Model of Financial Crises and Endogenous Fluctuations in Industrial Countries -- A Model of Financial Crises and Endogenous Fluctuations in Emerging Market Countries -- A Calibration Model of Financial Crises in Emerging Markets.
Summary This book develops a new theoretical approach to the explanation of systemic financial crises in industrial and emerging market countries. In contrast to standard models, the present cyclical approach is consistent with the following three stylized facts. Firstly, systemic financial crises are a recurrent phenomenon generally accompanied by excessive boom-bust cycles. Secondly, the frequency of financial crisis cycles is very irregular. Thirdly, most financial crisis cycles are initiated by positive shocks to profit expectations which induce an unsustainable build-up of financial fragility driven by irrational exuberance. The present approach is based on a sophisticated balancesheet structure with many assets, as well as on an expectation formation scheme which combines the rational expectations hypothesis with Keynes' Beauty Contest Theory.
