How Do Reserves Fit In?
Trilemma measures are not perfect representations
Reserves can be accumulated in order to (temporarily) escape the trilemma

Evolution over Time Gradual, but steady increase in financial
integration among LDCs over the last 20 years Since the 1990s, emerging market countries
converged to the “middle-ground,” which means they pursued, along with financial liberalization, Managed exchange rate flexibility Medium level of monetary independence Sizable increase in IR holding
Emerging Asian economies differ from other groups with their balanced targeting and high levels of IR holdings

the collapse of the BW system

Asian crisis of 1997-98
the emergence of rapid globalization (1990) and the rise of China (2001)
Countries do alter policy configurations when they experience major shocks

A Global Financial Cycle?

aka Trilemma or Dilemma?
Rey (2013) argues that in a financially integrated world, floating exchange rates do not insulate
Capital flow surges induce credit booms in the global financial cycle
Indisputable there are cycles But are exchange rate regimes
irrelevant, as Rey says?34

Still, the Trilemma Misses a Lot
The Trilemma is consistent with Mundell-Fleming
Intertemporal concerns not accounted for
Nor are credibility issues Like Mundell-Fleming, the banking
system is missing ==> New project: Aizenman,

Step 2 – Relate γ’s to Policies, Conditions, Institutions
