After sailing through the 2008 global financial crisis, emerging market economies (EMEs) have hit some headwinds in the form of higher debt, sluggish global economies and tighter credit conditions. The Federal Reserve’s long-awaited interest rate increase could unleash a financial storm in these countries, and one channel for that instability is EME corporate debt. Economists Viral Acharya, Stephen G. Cecchetti, José De Gregorio, Şebnem Kalemli-Özcan, Philip R. Lane and Ugo Panizza investigate EMEs’ vulnerability to another crisis. getAbstract suggests this scholarly analysis, written for the economic community, to finance professionals and investors.
