Cet article développe un modèle intégrant le rôle de la monnaie et de l’IDE afin d’examiner la fragilité du système bancaire d’une petite économie ouverte dans un contexte de crise financière internationale. Le modèle met l’accent sur les décalages de maturité et de devise au...

This paper examines a model of financial and exchange crises with balance-sheet effects by explicitly taking account of wealth accumulation and external equilibrium condition. We have found that, in a general equilibrium analysis, there are two stationary equilibria. Since foreign debt is always...

From Olsen Financial Studies data on the Euro-Dollar currency pair (2008-2010), we conduct a time-series analysis to explain the role of trading volume on exchange rate volatility (Mixture Distribution Hypothesis), taking into account non-linearity. We find evidence that the MDH holds in...
