5 1. Who are our dramatis personae? I explain where we are in terms of ants and grasshoppers and locusts: Ants save: Surplus countries; and Western non-financial companies; Grasshoppers spend: Deficit countries; and Households in these countries. Locusts intermediate. These relationships need to change if we are to have a healthy world economy. 5
6 2. What lay behind the crisis? What we have seen is a developing country crisis at the core of the world economy. Why? 1. Undue belief in the great moderation ; 2. Emergence of global imbalances and extraordinary reserve accumulations in the late 1990s and early 2000s; 3. Accommodative monetary policy aimed at targeting inflation; 4. Low real and nominal interest rates and a reach for yield ; 5. Innovation in the financial sector, to provide notionally safe, highyielding assets 64,000 triple-a rated securities; and 6. Failures of commission (risk-weighted capital ratios and reliance on ratings) and omission (deregulation of securities and housing markets) in financial regulation. 6

13 3. Where are the advanced countries now? The economic collapse was large. The rescue has been dramatic: Implicitly, the entire liabilities of the core financial system were nationalised; Monetary policy has been unprecedented; and Fiscal policy has been on a war-time footing. This has worked. But we are not back to normal. 13
14 3. Where are the advanced countries now? Carmen Reinhart and Kenneth Rogoff, in their masterpiece, This Time is Different, argue that the consequences of previous financial crises in advanced countries includes: Profound declines in output and employment: the unemployment rate rises an average of 7 percentage points over the down phase of the cycle, which lasts on average over four years, while output falls (from peak to trough) average over 9 percent Exploding public debt: debt rises by an average of 86 percent of GDP. The main cause of debt explosions is not the widely cited costs of bailing out and recapitalizing the banking system, but the recessions. By these standards, we have done quite well. Nevertheless,.. 14

20 4. Why do emerging economies matter? The rapid rise of emerging countries, above all China has played a crucial role in this story Three aspects may be particularly important: Dis-inflationary shock; Real wages and the credit cycle; Global imbalances It is particularly remarkable that China has emerged as the fastest growing country in the world and the largest capital exporter. Thus it combines the twin roles of the UK and US in the late 19 th century. 20

25 5. Why does rebalancing matter? The crisis has left important high-income countries with damaged financial systems, overleveraged household sectors and large fiscal deficits These advanced countries are no longer in a position to absorb net exports of capital from emerging economies and the chronic surplus advanced countries will not take up the slack If damaged advanced countries are to recover, while de-leveraging their private sectors and reducing fiscal deficits, they will need higher corporate investment or a large shift in net exports, or both 25

37 7. Conclusion The world economy has changed in big ways: End of private leverage cycle in high-income countries; End of reliance on US as borrower and spender of last resort; Emergence of huge developed country sovereign debt problems; Big challenge of global rebalancing and returning to stable global growth. Grasshoppers become antlike and ants become grasshopperlike and locusts behave themselves! Is this too much to hope for? Perhaps 37
