In Caballero and Simsek (2018), we develop a model of fickle capital flows and show that, when countries are similar, international flows create global liquidity and mitigate crises despite their fickleness. In this paper, we focus on the asymmetric situation of Emerging Markets (EM) exchanging...

We develop a model of gross capital flows and analyze their role in global financial stability. In our model, consistent with the data, when a country experiences asset fire sales, foreign investments exit (fickleness) while domestic investments abroad return home (retrenchment). When countries...

We develop a model of gross capital flows that addresses the tension between their fickleness during foreign crises and retrenchment during local crises. In a symmetric environment with domestic crises, capital flows mitigate fire sales since fickle inflows exit the crisis location at weak...
