The world financial crisis and global imbalances

Abstract. In the article the effectiveness of several mechanisms of global imbalances during the 2008-2009 world financial crisis are analyzed, with most popular theories of the asymmetry of global imbalances being outlined. Explanations behind the lack of an expected U.S. end China trade balance adjustment are analyzed. Policy implications for economic policy in both countries are considered.
