  5. Puzzle facing the would be reformers can be summarized as; Until 1970-most developing countries maintained exchange controls & limited private capital movements -countries could peg their exchange rates for extended periods exchange rate stability and devaluation of currency on occasion leading to considerable monetary autonomy This was called the ‘‘adjustable peg system’’

  6. Puzzle facing the would be reformers can be summarized as; In the last 2 decades of the 20th century; -capital mobility due to lifting of capital controls & improvement of communication technology

  7. DIFFERENT ECONOMIST’S views; Bhagwati & Joseph Stiglitz -Argued that developing countries should keep restrictions on capital mobility to be able to excise monetary autonomy while enjoying stable EXRA Policy makers -Capital controls are impossible to enforce or too disruptive of normal business relations

  8. PROPHYLACTIC MEASURES More Transparency Stronger banking system Enhanced Credit Lines Increased equity capital inflows relative to debt inflows

  9. COPING WITH THE CRISIS There have been proposals to modify the way the world responds to such crisis; Role and policies of IMF Other Critics Defenders of IMF and some of its critics
