Tivayanond, Prapaporn. "Developmental welfare in Thailand after the 1997 Asian financial crisis." Thesis, University of Oxford, 2011. http://ora.ox.ac.uk/objects/uuid:031d2eb3-84ba-4687-9e9f-a0fc7bbb985a.

Abstract:
This thesis explores continuity and change in the developmental welfare approach in Thailand following the 1997 Asian financial crisis. It examines both the exogenous and endogenous forces that generated change as well as both the ‘process’ and the ‘content’ of transformation or responses to the crisis. It uses the One Tambon One Product (OTOP) policy as a case study to explore these changes. The principle research question is: To what extent did the post 1997 crisis policy on social protection in Thailand represent a shift from its existing institutional path of developmental welfarism? Extending from this overarching question are subsidiary questions, which guided the thesis. They include: To what extent did the OTOP policy address the social protection gaps that became apparent in the Asian financial crisis? To what extent did the OTOP policy benefit its target population? The thesis uses historical institutionalism (HI) and the role of ideas as the analytic frameworks in analyzing change. The thesis argues that the exogenous shock of the 1997 financial crisis contributed to some departure from the institutional path of developmental welfarism in Thailand. However, the change did not follow the conventional punctuated equilibrium (PE) model under the HI framework in the sense of moving from one equilibrium to another after an exogenous shock. Rather, the radical change that took place after the exogenous shock was gradual. The new set of institutional arrangement prompted significant ideational and institutional transformations. They involved both intended and unintended consequences of incremental shifts in the forms of ‘layering’ ‘drift’ and ‘conversion’ (Streeck and Thelen, 2005). In addition, the thesis argues that the transformation in Thailand after the 1997 financial crisis lies in an intermediate order of change that is found between shifts in policy instrument and a wholesale ‘paradigm shift’ (Hall, 1993). Here, apart from having introduced a new policy such as OTOP, the Thai government engaged in a broader rethinking of Thailand’s developmental welfare path. Moreover, the study finds that the structure of economic development in a developing country context can both promote and impede social protection, rather than only subordinate the latter. The claim is based on the finding that the expansion of economic policy goals in Thailand supported local development and increasing inclusiveness of the informal sector after the 1997 financial crisis. Finally, the thesis argues that social protection delivery or lack thereof reflects contestation of ideas as well as material interests. Both the state and the policy beneficiaries in the OTOP context pushed for their interests when there were gaps between policy formulation and implementation. As a result, changes occurred both in the policy goals and in who benefited from OTOP.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis analyses dynamic interdependence, volatility transmission and market integration across eight selected Asian stock markets from 1992 to 2007. Various methodologies are applied to test such relationships. In particular, the focus is given to the impact of the 1997-98 Asian financial crisis on the dynamic linkages and propagation mechanisms among these selected Asian equity markets. The techniques of unit root testing, cointegration, vector error correction modelling (VECM) and forecast error variance decomposition (VDC) analysis are initially performed in both whole sample period and four sub-sample periods (namely pre-crisis, crisis, post-crisis and recovery periods). The results suggest that Asian stock markets are highly integrated and the crash has brought a greater interaction amongst markets. Japan, Hong Kong and Singapore appear to play the relative leading role over other markets. Furthermore, the characteristics of stock volatility are then examined using univariate TAR-GARCH model. The results show that volatility is time-varying and bad news will generate more volatility than good news. Additionally, the empirical findings show the existence of day of week effects in returns and volatility in emerging markets before but not after the crisis. This suggests improved post-crash market efficiency in Asian emerging markets.

Includes abstract.
The focus of this paper will be on Zimbabwe’s particular hyperinflationary episode. The crisis has its roots in Zimbabwe's struggle for independence, which took place in the 1970s. This struggle, known as the Second Chimurengo, culminated in Zimbabwe’s declaration of Independence on April 18, 1980. The incumbent President Mugabe has repeatedly referred to the current period of Zimbabwe’s history as the Third Chimurenga: the final stage in Zimbabwe's battle against those he terms the "neo-colonialists" (Raftopoulos, 2009). Given all the hyperinflations of the past, the question to be asked is whether the Zimbabwean experience is an isolated economic novelty; or, rather, is it simply a repetition of the economic and political follies that have plagued some of the fiat governments of the modern world? The purpose of this research, then, is to provide a detailed historical account of the economic side of the crisis, documenting the observable causes and phenomena that accompanied it. This account will then form the basis of a historical analysis of the key features that the Zimbabwean episode shares with other past hyperinflations, in an attempt to draw universal conclusions about the emergence and development of such episodes.

Abstract:
This study generates an overview of the 1997 Asian financial crisis, from its causes to the consequences. At the same time, it examines the context of the crisis, which includes the review of historical Asian development and the role of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) in the financial crisis. Particular attention is given to the crisis‘ impact on the local economy and people. In this it differs from existing research that analyses the impact on its own, this study links the crisis‘ impact to the foreign direct investment (FDI). The impact of the crisis, therefore, is reflected by examining the control power of the FDI money. It examines the crisis‘ impact through focusing on a unique angle of the two elements in the crisis – danger and opportunity. The results show that the social impact of the crisis put local people in danger of unemployment, underemployment, falling real wages and growing social inequality and lowered land and commodity prices, which dramatically reduced the cost of production. Accordingly, the control power of the FDI money increased extensively in the crisis, which represents the increasing danger of unfair exploitation of local labour and enclosure of land and resources which can be seen as opportunities beneficial to the international capitalists.

Abstract:
The financial crisis which hit Southeast Asian countries in July 1997 had a significant impact on the countries' economies and forced governments in the region to undertake programmes of financial restructuring in order to reduce weaknesses in banks' balance sheets, stabilise currencies and, most importantly, to improve the soundness of the banking and financial sectors. The main aim of such policies was to restore confidence and help meet the ongoing challenges associated with financial innovation and globalisation. The causes and consequences of the Asian crisis have been studied extensively in the past decade. However, the literature on the impact of the post-crisis crisis restructuring programmes on bank efficiency, performance and competition, and their evolving relationships, remain rather limited and inconclusive. This study aims to shed some light on these interrelated aspects, with particular reference to the experience of six of the countries mostly affected by the crisis - Indonesia, Korea, Malaysia, Philippines and Thailand - during their recovery period (1999 to 2005). Results from the efficiency analysis, carried out by means of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), show evidence of efficiency improvements in the region thereby indicating a positive impact of the restructuring programmes on the banking sector. Between 1999 to 2005 most of the countries in our sample actively followed policies of either closing failing institutions or fostering mergers. As a consequence, bank concentration in the region increased, raising the issue of the impact of the restructuring programmes on the competitive structure of banking markets. We found that, despite increased concentration, competition (assessed by the Panzar-Rosse Hstatistic) also increased leading us to conclude that the structural changes in South East Asia improved the region's banking industry performance without resulting in banks enjoying excessive market power. These lessons from the Asian crisis may prove valuable in the light of current re-structuring of global banking systems in the light of the 2008 credit crisis.

Abstract:
The purpose of this research was to investigate crisis management in the context of the tourism sector by means of a case study of the Malaysian response to the Asian financial crisis. Not only was the reaction of the Malaysian government to the crisis examined but the possibility of developing a strategy to protect the sector against future crises was also explored. Primary data were collected by means of semi-structured interviews with senior Malaysian public and private sector policy makers. Areas of interest addressed included the crisis management measures employed to assist the recovery of the tourism sector; the lessons learnt from the crisis: the potential for public/private sector cooperation to develop a crisis management plan for the tourism sector; and how such a plan might be implemented. It was generally felt by the participants that the measures employed had been effective in restoring the tourism sector status quo, although there was some concern expressed over how long this had taken. It was agreed that there is a need for a sectoral crisis management plan but no consensus as to who should fund it, which figures could be used as indicators of the approach of a crisis and how they should be collected, and what form any such plan should take. This research indicates that there is a case for the government to work with the private sector to develop some sort of crisis management provision for the tourism sector. However, it is apparent that it may be extremely problematic to formulate an appropriate plan and there may be difficulties as to how it should be funded and who should take responsibility for its implementation. It appears that an approach at state level would have more potential than a federal plan but more research in this area is required.

Abstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this research project is to explore the research question – how does the pursuit of agenda of regulatory reforms, post the crisis, influence governance arrangements at banks and assist them in maintaining resilience during subsequent episodes of crises?Research methodology – The project adopts a comparative case study approach involving a mixture of review of secondary resources and fieldwork interviews across East Asian nations. Findings – The project applied the Minskian Financial Instability Hypothesis to the 1997 East Asian crisis. It explored the macro-economic and policy environment during 1990s for highlighting institutional failures at the heart of the crisis. The interview findings offered contextual setting and diverse perspectives for regulatory reforms aimed at improving bank governance, post the crisis. The experience of case study banks outlined the impact of regulatory reforms on banking business models, post the crisis. The role of post-1997-crisis regulatory reforms in bringing about East Asian resilience, during the 2007 crisis, is thus analysed in the research project. Practical implications – The research project provides emerging economy perspective to regulatory reforms and offers policy-level recommendations for banks, regulatory authorities, corporate borrowers, and statutory auditors in maintaining governance standards conductive to financial stability in the long run. Originality – The project claims originality of application, interpretation and evaluation (which are considered as building blocks for “academic contribution”) of an important academic theory in the context of financial crises – Minsky’s Financial Instability Hypothesis. It integrates the aspects of financial instability, regulatory reforms and bank governance in the context of East Asian financial crisis by introducing the concept of “economic responsibilities” of market participants from emerging economies.

Abstract:
It is sometimes purported that one of the factors affecting a firm's value is its capital structure. The event of the 1997 Asian financial crisis was expected to affect the firms' gearing level as the firms' earnings deteriorated and the capital market collapsed. The main objective of this research is to examine empirically the determinants of the capital structure of Malaysian firms. The main additional aim is to study the capital structure pattern following the 1997 financial crisis. Empirical tests were conducted on two different data sets: the first data set is the published data extracted from Datastream and consists of: 572 companies listed on the Kuala Lumpur Stock Exchange (KLSE) between 1994 and 2000. The second data set comprises finance managers' responses to a questionnaire survey. Chi-square, Kruskal-Wallis, ANOVA, multiple regression, stepwise regression and logistic regression were utilised to analyse the data. The multiple regression analysis was employed to find the determinants of the capital structure using various account data items provided by Datastream. The gearing differences between the two boards and within the sectors were also analysed using ANOVA and Krukal-Wallis tests. The panel data were evaluated with regard to the gearing pattern following the 1997 currency crisis. Overwhelming evidence on profit was found, with past profitability being the major determinant of gearing. In particular was the support for pecking order theory, in that finance managers had given internal funds the highest priority, followed by debt and equity as a last option. The statistical analysis found a strong negative correlation between liquidity and the gearing ratio for both boards, implying firms considered highly the excess current assets for funding, a conservative approach towards debt management policy. On the other hand, taxation items were not highly significant in capital structure decisions. The results indicate the existence of gearing differences between the main board and the second board gearing with high debt levels employed by second board companies. However, the second board's high gearing is dominated largely by short to medium term bank credit. Differences were also significant between different sectors of companies listed on the main board. Firms' gearing ratios increased significantly following the 1997 financial crisis, and the gearing tended to increase where the company's share prices were highly sensitive towards currency volatility. Also inflation is found to influence the changes in actual and target gearing ratios following the crisis. Recent emphasis on the development of private debt securities may affect the findings of this research in the near future.

This paper attempts to deliver a side-by-side examination of the similarities and differences between the economies of East Asia (Singapore, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Korea Republic, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, and the Philippines) and China. After the devastating 1997 Crisis, many investing eyes have turned to China as the next Asian growth engine. China has been opening its economy to foreign investors and its accession into the World Trade Organization will push for increased transparency and efficiency. The paper discusses the internal and external forces that drove the economies, with focused attention on its financial systems, using pre-crisis data. With foreign banks allowed entry into China by the end of 2006, its financial system will be an important component in economic longevity. Lastly, the question of whether or not China is vulnerable to a crisis is assessed based on the same factors that caused it in East Asia

Abstract:
Au printemps de 1996, la Bulgarie a traversé une crise financière très grave, combinant panique bancaire et spéculation contre la monnaie nationale, le Lev. La crise a culminé en février 1997, avec une courte période d'hyperinflation et une crise politique entraînant la chute du gouvernement. Cette thèse a pour objet d'expliquer la crise bulgare et d'examiner en particulier, les relations entre la crise bancaire et la crise monétaire. Quatre approches sont utilisées à cette fin : 1) une présentation des modèles théoriques de crises financières, et notamment des modèles dits de "crises jumelles" ; 2) une comparaison de la crise bulgare avec celle d'autres économies en transition ; 3) une chronologie détaillée des crises bancaire et monétaire en Bulgarie ; et 4) l'estimation d'un modèle unifié de substitution de devises et d'actifs, avant et pendant la crise. Les quatre approches produisent des conclusions similaires, et suggèrent la prééminence de la crise bancaire sur la crise de change. La crise bancaire aurait entraîné des dépenses fiscales très lourdes, un gonflement de la dette publique et la crainte de voir le gouvernement recourir à la planche à billets, comme dans les modèles "classiques" de crises financières. Il semblerait aussi que le niveau des réserves de change de la banque centrale ait joué un rôle prépondérant dans la formation des anticipations des ménages. L'analyse empirique présentée dans le dernier chapitre mesure l'impact des anticipations de change sur la substitution des devises et tente de quantifier l'effet des variations des réserves de change sur la composition des portefeuilles d'actifs.

Abstract:
The emerging Asian economies have different financial system characteristics and exposure to shocks from the advanced economies, but the discussion regarding the role of monetary and macroprudential policies mainly revolve around the same issues. The first one is relating to the lack of understanding of macroprudential policy’s transmission mechanism. The second one is about the role of monetary policy as a financial stabilisation instrument. The third one concerns the interaction between monetary and macroprudential policies as macroeconomic and financial stabilisation instruments. Due to the vulnerabilities of the emerging Asian economies to the volatility of capital inflows, the discussion also involves the role of the capital flow management policy as part of the stabilisation instruments. Utilising a small open economy model that has been designed and calibrated based on the emerging Asian economies characteristics, this research contributes to the discussion on the above issues by studying the transmission of monetary, macroprudential and capital flow management policies and their interactions in facing a certain dominant shock driving the disturbances in the economy, evaluating the macroeconomic and financial stabilisation performance of the policy strategies that combine different policy instruments, and examining how the welfare of economic agents are affected by the implementation of these policy strategies. Model simulations show that not all countercyclical instruments can be used effectively in every shock. There are conditions in which the implementation of macroprudential policy can complement monetary policy to achieve macroeconomic and financial stability, but there are also conditions in which it may be preferable for the policymakers not to implement them. Understanding how a certain shock propagates in the economy and the nature of the interactions among the policy instruments in facing that particular shock are necessary for designing the optimal policy mix that can improve both macroeconomic and financial stability.

Abstract:
The question raised in this thesis is "In the context of the developmental state, what is the explanation for Korea's financial regulatory failure, which contributed to the 1997 crisis." There have been two dominant explanations, i.e. exogenous and endogenous. The first one cites the exogenous breakdown of the developmental state. Wade (1998, 2000) argues that the Korean government was forced by the US government to remove capital controls. He claims that such financial regulatory liberalization was not consistent with the developmental state model. The second one focuses on endogenous forces, especially the growing influence of business over government (Haggard 2000). The thesis argues that the latter explanation is the more convincing. Three financial liberalization issues, i.e. US pressure on the Korean foreign exchange rate. Financial Policy Talks between the US and Korean governments and multilateral talks surrounding Korea's entry to the OECD, and key prudential regulatory measures before the crisis are investigated. It shows that the exogenous explanation is basically irrelevant in explaining regulatory outcomes. The outcomes are consistent with the preference of the private sector, in particular, chaebol. This thesis differs, however, from the Haggard argument, in arguing that the regulatory capture was facilitated by Korea's regulatory institutional centralization within the Finance Ministry. Due to the historical proximity of the Ministry to the business sector, regulatory centralization left the state more exposed to policy capture. Institutional centralization had been a principal requirement for the developmental state in the literature. However, the thesis argues that such centralization in the financial regulatory area proved to be a weakness rather than a strength in the period when financial liberalization was occurring. The thesis has also investigated in much more detail the different regulatory policies applied to different financial sectors. The difference resulted from different business-government balance of power by sector.

Financial panics and crashes have become an item of familiarity to many nations around the world over more than several centuries. If history has taught us nothing else, it has taught us that we can learn from the past with the aim of improving the future. In 1997 a chain of events was set off in Asia that culminated in financial panic and crisis for many of the East Asian countries. The research in this paper focuses on the economic environment in South Korea in the years immediately preceding the 1997 financial crisis. The financial liberalization policy of interest rate de-regulation is modeled using system dynamics and the resultant economic behavior is explored. The feedback structure of the model is used to explain the asset bubble that formed during the height of the build-up. The national reliance on short-term commercial paper to finance long-term investments is explored and its relationship to the crisis is discussed. System dynamics is used to model the policy decisions that were made and explore different policy decisions and scenarios to provide insight into the resulting economic behavior.

As one of the most important financial innovations in 1990s, Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities (CMBS) have provided significant amounts of financing for commercial real estate. However, when the Asian and Russian financial crisis hit in 1998, the low rated CMBS market almost dried up and one of the dominant investors Criimi Mae went to Chapter 11 for protection. This study investigates the events systematically from the perspectives of market structure and product development in the context of financial crisis. We found that the private and illiquid market structure and the short term marked-to-market repo financing together resulted in the disequilibrium of the low rated CMBS market during the financial crisis. Information efficiency and more resilient financing mechanism are needed to mitigate the conflicting interest between issuers/underwriters and investors of low rated CMBS.

The occurring of the Southeast Asian Financial Crisis in 1997 made the long-term economically prosperous and successful NICs been through an unprecedented financial big bang. Thailand, as the source of the financial crisis, its economic structure and its financial market has been much heavily influenced than expected. Although the occurring of the financial crisis in Thailand had its own structural economic problem, however, under the financial liberalized and internationalized climate which arisen during the 1990s, the defective monetary system and the inappropriate financial supervision resulted in the financial chaos and became one of the main reason of the financial crisis. Therefore, this paper will dissect the causes of the financial crisis from economic analysis aspect. Soon after Thailand government accepted the help of 17.2 billion U.S. dollars from IMF and other institutions on August of 1997; they proposed a complete and comprehensive financial reform policy on 14th of August of 1998 and adopted effective strategies to proceed diverse financial reconstructions positively, then the macroeconomic situation came stable immediately. But the monetary system still could not be totally solved under its vicious circle of high non-performing loans. The reconstruction process and experiences that the Thailand government had experienced while solving their financial crisis was highly concerned, which mainly comprise: (1) the establishment of specialized institutions and the model of integral operation; (2) the concrete outcome assessment of financial reform; (3) the changes and the future trend of the financial industry. This paper will discuss the inspirations that the financial reconstruction model in Thailand has brought as well as the influences and the follow-up problems after the financial crisis from the cause and effect and the financial industrial condition of the monetary institutional changes in Thailand. Making a comprehensive survey of the financial reform in Thailand, they''ve made substantially changes in laws, monetary institution, policy goals and economic condition. This paper will also discuss based on above-mentioned conditions the changes of competitive situations in Thai financial market under the integrated global financial structure. Especially at present period while many foreign capitals that included Taiwanese enterprises making merger and acquisition in Thailand, which cause strikes to the general financial operations and affaires. Taiwan seems to be lighter damaged than other southeast countries. As the Thai government cancelled their financial industrial restraints, and according to the investments of Taiwanese enterprises in Thailand have achieve a respectable scale, it is a great opportunity for Taiwanese financial industrialist to consider carefully of taking regional financial arrangement to cope with the upcoming global financial service industrial single market. Therefore, this paper will analyze as well the present developments of Taiwanese financial industry in Thailand.

Abstract:
This study examines the characteristics of the collapse of the stock market and the foreign exchange market in some Asian countries during the 1997 Asian Financial Crisis. The interaction of these two markets during the crisis period is also studied. The method used to detect and date-stamp the timeline of the collapse is the recursive regression approach proposed in Phillips, Shi, and Yu(2015a,b). Tests are conducted on a time series of logged real stock indices and real exchange rate against the US dollar. The dataset includes information about Hong Kong, South Korea, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, and Taiwan. Great depreciation periods were detected in the foreign exchange markets of all these countries. And the negative bubbles in the stock markets are only detected in Thailand, South Korea, Malaysia, and Singapore due to different reasons. Moreover, the order of the collapse in these two markets is different for different countries. For example, bubbles appear earlier in the stock markets than the start of the great depreciation period in the foreign exchange markets in Thailand, South Korea, and Malaysia, whereas crashes emerge in the two markets at the same time in Singapore. The order of the collapses occurring in the two markets suggests the transmission direction. Therefore, we find that the transmission mechanism between these two markets is different for different countries and is also different from that during the non-crisis period, as suggested by previous works using the traditional Granger causality test.
本文研究主要著眼於1997亞洲金融危機中部分亞洲國家股票市場和外匯市場在暴跌中所表現出的泡沫化特點,同時對這兩個市場變化的聯動關系進行了討論。本文采用Phillips, Shi和Yu提出的循環回歸方法對市場中是否存在泡沫以及泡沫形成和破裂的時間進行了判斷和分析。本文的研究對象為經過通貨膨脹調整的香港、韓國、泰國、馬來西亞、新加坡和臺灣的股票指數(取對數)以及這些地區的貨幣對美元的實際匯率。在所有上述經濟體中,對美元匯率都呈現正泡沫,這意味著短期內貨幣呈現較大程度貶值。然而代表股市暴跌的負泡沫只出現在了韓國、泰國、馬來西亞和新加坡,這些負泡沫亦產生於不同的原因。同時,不同國家股市和匯市的泡沫產生順序也不盡相同:在韓國、泰國和馬來西亞,股市先於匯市產生負泡沫;而在新加坡,股市和匯市的泡沫同步產生。由於泡沫產生的時間先後順序可以為兩個市場的變動提供因果關系的證據,所以我們認為在上述亞洲經濟體中,股市和匯市變動的因果關系也不相同。我們也針對上述經濟體中股市與匯市變動的因果關系提出了與之前已有研究的不同意見。

Abstract Until recently the "East Asian Miracle" had been a central theme in Asian studies that engrossed many scholars in the international academic communities. Voluminous books and essays praised East Asia''s remarkable economic achievements in terms of its continued high economic growth rate and patterns of relatively equitable wealth distribution. But in the span of two years, the regional economic "miracle", with its promise of continued high economic growth rate, was transformed into a severe regional, and potentially global, economic collapse. It has seriously endangered the livelihood of millions of people, causing untold misery and suffering. This thesis attempts to analyze the historical development of the East Asia and trace the development from the "East Asian Miracle" to the financial and economic crisis, completed with a historical structure analysis of the internal and external factors making the financial crisis. It also argues that in view of the increasing globalization and liberalization of the world''s financial markets, it makes little sense to blame the current economic crisis on the "internal" problems of the East Asian economies. For these problems are intertwined with the mammoth international financial system characterized by quick cross-national capital mobility and an increasingly complicated and volatile system of unproductive speculative investments. The economic crisis in East Asia has not been driven only by factors such as pegged exchange rates, heavy short-term foreign borrowing, and hopelessly inadequate financial sector regulation; politics has also been important. Indeed, in any case where there is a massive loss of investor confidence it would be difficult for politics not to be involved. The crisis is attributed to the erosion of the state autonomy, the changing global economy and international financial system, and the US''s new geopolitical syrategy imposing on the region. These long-term, institutional factors that led to the breakdown of the financial market in East Asia are examined in the thesis in order to construct a broader analytical framework in which the crisis can be adequately situated. Besides, the thesis wants to analyze its great impact on the development of the region and the global economy. In the last, it also wants to rethink the impact of globalization and the international financial institutions, and look in the future of the development of the East Asian economies.

Abstract:
The aim of this thesis is to examine empirically the relationship between the exchange rate, the instruments of monetary policy and the measures of economic performance for Indonesia, Korea and Thailand during the pre- and post 1997 Asian financial crisis. The first core chapter (Chapter 2) assesses the possible linkages between the increase in domestic inflation and the exchange rate targeting policy adopted in these countries. Using the cointegration technique and a simple monetarist inflation model, Chapter 2 finds strong evidence that the exchange rate policy that generates a predominant domestic currency undervaluation has caused an increase in the domestic inflation rate for Indonesia and Korea. However, the exchange rate targeting policy that brings about a predominant baht overvaluation especially during the pre-crisis period has lowered Thailand’s inflation. Soon after the outbreak of 1997-crisis, instead of using the exchange rate as the nominal anchor, all three countries have implement their monetary policy around an inflation target following an inflation targeting framework. Owing to this significant structural break, the second core chapter (Chapter 3) uses a Markov-switching VAR framework to determine if the effects of monetary policy shocks have changed across different monetary policy regimes in these economies. Chapter 3 finds that regime switches occur in mid-1997 to 2000 for Indonesia, which coincides with the period after the onset of 1997-crisis and the economic recovery period; and in 1999 for Korea and Thailand, which coincides with the period when the inflation-targeting framework is adopted. From the regime-dependent impulse response functions, the responses of macroeconomic variables to monetary policy shocks have changed significantly across different regimes only for the case of Korea and Thailand. From the above discussions, Chapter 2 found that exchange rate targeting policy caused higher domestic inflation in Indonesia and Korea especially during the pre-crisis period; while Chapter 3 found that inflation targeting policy seemed to cause structural changes in Korea and Thailand. Therefore using a structural VAR framework, the third core chapter (Chapter 4) explores further the role of the exchange rate and inflation targeting policy on the economic performances of these economies during the pre- and post crisis periods. Chapter 4 finds that in the case of Indonesia and Korea, the foreign exchange market does create most of its own shocks during the pre-crisis period but not during the post crisis period. For Indonesia and Thailand, the soft US dollar peg policy during the pre-crisis period has caused additional distortions in the domestic economy. Moreover the role of the exchange rate as a shock absorber has increased during the post crisis period only for the case of Indonesia and Thailand. For all three economies, following the introduction of the inflation targeting policy, domestic short-term interest rates have been adjusted systematically to offset inflationary pressure following the real and nominal shocks. Moreover, in the case of Indonesia and Thailand, the unsystematic part of monetary policy plays a smaller role in explaining the variations in domestic economy during the post crisis period.
