Global Imbalances with Safe Assets in Eurozone

Working Papers from HAL

Abstract: In one open two-country economy, a higher domestic productivity level raises both mean and variance of wealth dynamic, and can lead to a greater accumulation of safe assets. The empirical evidences on the 19 countries of Eurozone confirm that the safe assets exchange supports the international risk-sharing across countries. Moreover, in comparison with the risky investments (FDI and Portfolio Equities), the safe assets (Bonds) are the dominant driver of global imbalances within Eurozone.
