financial system could be heading for even bigger shocks in the future, particularly in places such as the UK, Hong Kong and Switzerland. today’s financial turbulence might be merely a precursor of something even worse in the years ahead. For while global imbalances helped to create the recent financial crisis, these imbalances have not declined; on the contrary, the paper argues, they are likely to get considerably bigger – not smaller – in the coming years. This means that the financial system could be heading for even bigger shocks in the future, particularly in places such as the UK, Hong Kong and Switzerland. But it could also force a policy shift. Most notably, “faced with further increases in the magnitude and/or volatility of capital flows, it is likely that some countries will choose to introduce capital controls,” the paper warns. Call it, if you like, Back to the Future. The logic that has sparked this analysis starts with the observation that the size of emerging market countries is likely to swell dramatically in the next few decades, both in terms of economic output and capital markets activity too. That will leave the “Brics” – Brazil, Russia, India and China – with more money to invest, the bank warns, and much of this is likely to head overseas. Message 27827954
