Cross-Country Causes and Consequences of the 2008 Crisis: International Linkages and American ExposureAndrew K. RoseUniversity of California - Haas School of Business; National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER); Centre for Economic Policy Research (CEPR) Mark M. SpiegelFederal Reserve Bank of San Francisco - Economic Research Department Pacific Economic Review, Vol. 15, No. 3, pp. 340-363, August 2010 Abstract: We model the causes of the 2008 financial crisis together with its manifestations, using a cross-country multiple indicator multiple cause model. We consider both national and, critically, international linkages between countries and potential crisis ‘epicentres’, including the United States. A country holding an epicentre's securities is exposed through a financial channel, while a country that exports to that epicentre is exposed through a real channel. We are unable to find strong evidence that international linkages can be associated with crisis incidence. In particular, exposure to the United States in either form has little impact. If anything, it appears to help.
