1. Introduction

East Asia as a de facto Single Market

A noticeable feature of East Asian countries’ economic success has
been the growing integration of their goods markets.

The share of intra-East Asian trade has increased from 31.7% in
1990 to 42.0% in 2008 (ADB).

East Asia’s goods markets are highly integrated and the degree of
integration has been increasing over time.

In conjunction with growing de facto regional economic
integration, East Asia has experienced a sustained surge of official,
government-led regionalism since the Asian financial crisis of
1997-1998 (eg., ASEAN+3, ASEAN+6, FTAPP).

1. Introduction

East Asia as a de facto Single Market

ASEAN+3 started out as a post-Asian crisis forum for fostering
financial cooperation and gave rise to a number of new regional
financial arrangements.

These include the network of bilateral swap agreements (BSAs)
under the Chiang Mai Initiative (CMI), institutionalized policy
dialogue, and the creation of the Asian Bond Funds as a first step
toward a regional bond market.

Recently, the finance ministers of ASEAN+3 agreed to speed up
the CMI’s multilateralization (CMIM) by means of a collectively
managed reserve-pooling arrangement governed by a single
contract.

1. Introduction

East Asia as a de facto Single Market

Despite the wide range of official activities and initiatives to
promote intra-East Asian financial cooperation, intra-regional
trade in financial assets lags far behind remains limited.

This is especially true in comparison with the integration of the
region’s real economies via the trade channel.

Put differently, there has been de facto integration of East Asian
economies but this integration has largely occurred in the goods
markets rather than in the financial markets.

1. Introduction

Previous Studies

Using the IMF’s CPIS data on bilateral holdings of financial
assets, a number of studies (Kim et al., 2005; Lee, 2008;, Park
and Wyplosz, 2008 and Garcia-Herrero et al., 2009) applied
the gravity model used CPIS data.

They confirm that the level of financial integration among
East Asian economies is low.

However, they estimate a gravity model commonly used to
estimate trade in goods to estimate trade in assets.

1. Introduction

Purpose of this paper

Evaluate the degree of bilateral linkages among East Asian
financial markets using a financial gravity model grounded
in economic theory.

Analyze the impact of three different types of countryspecific risks - political, economic and financial risks – on
financial asset trade.

Draw policy implications for regional economic integration
in East Asia.

1. Introduction

Contributions of this paper

Accurately evaluate the degree of intra-East Asian financial
integration by estimating theory-based financial gravity
equation along the lines suggested by Martin and Rey (2004,
2006) and Coeurdacier and Martin (2006).

Offer two possible reasons for East Asia’s lower level of
intra-regional financial integration.

A gravity equation for trade in assets can be drawn as follows:
logAssetitj = log(ß/(1+ß)) + logLyit + lognjt + (ε – 1) logrjt – (ε – 1)logτijt + (ε – 1)logQit

A more general gravity equation for trade in assets can be shown
as follows:
logAssetitj = log(ß/(1+ß)) + logLyit + logLyjt + lognit + lognjt + (ε – 1) logrit + (ε – 1) logrjt
– (ε – 1)logτijt + (ε – 1)logQit + (ε – 1)logQjt

5. Concluding Observations
Summary

The central objective of this paper has been to empirically
evaluate the degree of bilateral linkages among East Asian
financial markets

The primary finding is that trade in financial assets of Hong
Kong, Japan, Korea and Singapore with other East Asian
countries is larger than predicted by the theory-based
financial gravity model.

This tendency is less pronounced for bonds than for equities.
23
5. Concluding Observations
Summary

When we include intra-East Asian goods trade intensity as
an additional explanatory variable, we no longer find that
intra-East Asian assets trade is bigger than assets trade
between East Asia and the rest of the world.

Therefore, it is possible that our finding of
disproportionately large intra-East Asian trade in assets is
driven by the region’s high level of goods trade integration.

Furthermore, our country-specific results suggest that Japan,
the largest investor in the region, invests more outside East
Asia even though it trades goods a lot with East Asia.
24
5. Concluding Observations
Two possible reasons why trade in financial assets
remains limited in East Asia?

The underdevelopment of the region’s financial
systems relative to its dynamic real economies.

Why? East Asian countries (HKG, JPN, KOR, SGN) invest more in the
countries with high degree of financial market liberalization.

High country risks of many developing countries in
East Asia

Why? East Asian countries invest less in the countries with high country
risk (particularly, political risk)

In particular, Japan, the region’s largest investor, has a very strong
tendency of investing less in the countries of high political risk.
25
5. Concluding Observations
Policy Implications

East Asian countries need to speed up the process of
the region’s financial integration which lags behind the
level of trade integration.

In particular, a special effort is needed to promote the
integration of the region’s bond markets, for which we
find weaker evidence of integration then equity
markets.

Two suggestions for the region’s financial integration
(1) More liberalization of financial market.
(2) Reduction of country risk, particularly political risk of
developing countries.
