‘This is a penetrating study that is of great value to a wide range of professionals in fields of money, finance and banking as well as fields of economics.’
– Aslib Book Guide

In the second half of 1997 Thailand, Malaysia, Korea and Indonesia experienced a massive outflow of foreign capital – more than $100 billion. The effects of this rival the worst years of the Latin American debt crisis and the early years of the Great Depression.

The Asian crisis demonstrates how interconnected the global economy has become, and this book is the first attempt, by an international group of experts, to understand the Asian financial crisis by taking into account the dynamics of private capital flows.
