“INTERNATIONAL LIQUIDITY, MONETARY SPILLOVERS AND ASSET PRICES” Daniel Borja & Daniel Goyeau

Summary

• International Liquidity  Asset Prices – U.S., Euro Area & ASEAN 5 – Quarterly Data: 1995 to 2005 • Liquidity Definition • U.S.  Reciprocal Effects  Euro Area • ASEAN 5: No Spillover Effect

Presentation Structure

• Introduction • Liquidity Definition • Methodology • Results and Findings • Conclusion

Liquidity and Asset Prices

• Tenuous Link?

Effect of Financial Globalization  Greater Synchronization of Markets  Monetary Spillover

What is Liquidity?

• Two Concepts of Liquidity, Baks and Kramer (1999) – Market Liquidity – Monetary Liquidity • Money growth • Excess money growth

What is Liquidity?

• Various Measures of Excess Liquidity, ECB (2001) – Nominal money gap and real money gap – Monetary overhang/shortfall • Based on Quantity Theory of Money, Gouteron, et al (2005) – M + V = P + Y

What is Liquidity?

• International Liquidity Ratio, Filho (2002) – The ratio of the net foreign reserves against the net foreign interest-bearing debt – Crucial liquidity ratio • International Liquidity, Caballero, et al.(2000 & 2001) – Collateral – Precautionary Reserves – Liquidity-based model of domestic interest rate determination

What is Liquidity?

• Macro and Micro-based Measures, Fernandez (1999) – Aggregate measures • Excess liquidity: monetary aggregate growth • Credit available • Degree of Leverage – Micro-based • Depth • Breadth • Resiliency

Liquidity Definition

• Problems with micro-based measures • Problems with “asset-debt” ratio • International Liquidity: EXCESS MONEY GROWTH

Liquidity and Asset Prices

 Excess Liquidity |  Increases Demand for a Fixed Supply of Assets |  Asset Price Inflation *Baks and Kramer (1999)

Liquidity and Asset Prices

Improving Economic Prospects

Excess Liquidity Asset Price Inflation *Baks and Kramer (1999)

Liquidity and Asset Prices

 Excess Liquidity |  Decrease in the Discount Rate |  Asset Price Inflation *Baks and Kramer (1999)

International Liquidity Channels

Push Channel

Excess Liquidity Seek Out Foreign Markets Foreign Asset Price Inflation

Pull Channel

Excess Liquidity Attract Foreign Capital Depress Foreign Asset Price

Dataset

• U.S., Euro Area and ASEAN 5 (Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore and Thailand) • Quarterly Data: 1995 to 2005 • M1, M3, real and nominal GDP, short term interest rates, share price indices, consumer price indices and exchange rates

Data

• Growth rates • Local currency into USD or euros • ASEAN 5 DATA – Simple Sum – Weighted Growth Series

Data

• Excess Money Growth – Quarterly money growth minus quarterly growth rate of nominal GDP • Real Returns – Share price returns/short-term interest rate minus consumer price inflation

Money Growth Rates

• Correlated: ASEAN 5 simple sum and weighted growth rates series • Money growth rates for ASEAN are more volatile • Excess money growth rates for Euro area are more volatile

First Regression Form

R

i, t =

c + A(L)m

i, t

+ B(L)m

j, t

+ C(L)m

k, t

+ D(L)v

i, t + ε i, t where:

R

i, t = real stock return m = money growth of markets i, j and k

v

i, t = velocity of money

Velocity of Money

• Ratio of nominal GDP and broad money(M3) • Significant change in money velocity in the three areas during this period

Monetary Spillover Regression

R

i, t =

c + aR

i, t-1

+ B(L)xm

i, t

+ C(L)r

i, t

+ D(L)y

i, t

+ E(L)p

i, t

+ F(L)v

i, t

+ G(L)xm

j, t

+ H(L)xm

k, t + ε i, t where:

R

i, t = real stock return

xm

i, t = excess money growth

r

i, t = real short-term rate

y

i, t = real gdp growth (USD)

p

i, t = inflation rate

v

i, t = velocity of money

Results

• Results using narrow money are more robust than the regression results using broad money • Regressions for the ASEAN 5 using a weighted series and simple summations gave similar results

•Real GDP growth and ASEAN 5 excess M1 growth are statistically significant

Findings

• Liquidity Spillovers: US and Euro area – Same economic standing ≈same monetary policies • ASEAN 5: autonomous from excess international liquidity – Emerging Market • US domestic excess liquidity insignificant

Conclusion

• Local excess liquidity – Euro and ASEAN 5 : consistent with expectations – US market: why?

• Spillover effects – Euro area and US market: reciprocal effects – ASEAN 5: no spillover effect
