Of course, the years since 1987 have not been without big macroeconomic shocks.

However, economic growth and expectations are constantly threatened by inappropriate macroeconomic policies, poor economic management and external shocks.

Financial and other macroeconomic restructuring initiatives therefore need to go hand in hand with measures to protect the economy from future shocks.

Growth must become more stable, with a consistently counter cyclical macroeconomic policy stance, prudent capital account management, and greater resilience to external shocks.

H. Implications of macroeconomic policy, external shocks and social protection systems for poverty, inequality and social vulnerability in Latin America and the Caribbean

Latin America has achieved substantial progress in its macroeconomic policy framework, giving its authorities increased room for maneuver in softening the impact of external shocks.

With economic shocks able to spread more quickly than ever before, owing to broadened trade and financial channels, all Asian countries must maintain a sound macroeconomic environment.

Barring unexpected shocks, I believe that China s inflation may peak soon. From a macroeconomic perspective, China s current inflation is attributable both to demand pull and cost push factors.

The reasons for the increase in post HIPC initiative debt burdens in the majority of countries are well known and include both external shocks and poor macroeconomic management.

ECLAC and UNDP recently joined forces to develop instruments to approximate the impact of macroeconomic and external shocks on labour and household incomes through the use of a computable general equilibrium (CGE) model.

(e) Establishment of a virtual community of knowledge to share experiences and lessons learned in the areas of macroeconomic policy, external shocks and social protection systems in relation to poverty, inequality and social vulnerability

Germany s Five Shocks

This explains why, in a world where developing countries are faced with increasing shocks, macroeconomic policies aimed at smoothing the business cycle (that is, counter cyclical macro economic policies) play a vital role in economic growth.

So expect big shocks.

That might also help mitigate the impact of larger shocks and increase the net return potential during severe shocks (though it might also lower the return potential for more mild shocks).

But a second reform front, aimed at enhancing regional coordination, must also be opened. With economic shocks able to spread more quickly than ever before, owing to broadened trade and financial channels, all Asian countries must maintain a sound macroeconomic environment.

Macro prudential policies are not a substitute for sound macroeconomic policies nonetheless, they are essential to preventing large asset bubbles and distortions in financial markets, and thus to reducing the risk of adverse shocks to both markets and the real economy.

The project will assist national policymakers and policy shapers to develop the knowledge and skills to integrate macroeconomic and social goals in policy formulation and better utilize available national policy space to pursue development goals in the face of external shocks.
