Funded Activity Summary

Financial crises, volatility and sovereign ratings: Do ratings really matter when they are needed most? The stability of Australian financial markets during the Asian financial crisis is a major economic success story. Subsequently, an important policy objective has been in enhancing the capacity of the financial infrastructure in regional financial markets to reduce their exposure to such crises. Recent financial market turmoil dramatically underscores the need to better understand the full myriad of factors that feed into this challenging concern. One critical area of debate is whether or not rating agencies play a calming role. This project will deliver insights that aid development of the financial infrastructure to cope better with such crises and retain investor confidence.
