The author, an Asian regulator, examines how old mindsets, market fundamentalism, loose monetary policy, carry trade, lax supervision, greed, cronyism, and financial engineering caused both the Asian crisis of the late 1990s and the current global crisis of 2008-2009. This book shows how the Japanese zero interest rate policy to fight deflation helped create the carry trade that generated bubbles in Asia whose effects brought Asian economies down. The study's main purpose is to demonstrate that global finance is so interlinked and interactive that our current tools and institutional structure to deal with critical episodes are completely outdated. The book explains how current financial policies and regulation failed to deal with a global bubble and makes recommendations on what must change"--Provided by publisher. 000335312 650_0 $$aFinance$$zAsia. 000335312 650_0 $$aFinancial crises$$zAsia. 000335312 85200 $$bgen$$hHG187.A2$$iS54$$i2009 000335312 85642 $$3Cover image$$uhttp://assets.cambridge.org/97805211/34156/cover/9780521134156.jpg 000335312 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:335312$$pGLOBAL_SET 000335312 980__ $$aBIB 000335312 980__ $$aBOOK
