Securing stability and growth in a shock prone region : the policy challenge for Latin America ; paper prepared for the IDB/OECD conference on "Securing Stability and Growth in Latin America: Policy Issues and Prospects for Shock-Prone Economies", Paris, November 9-10, 1995

Ricardo Hausmann (Chief Economist), Michael Gavin (Lead Research Economist, Office of the Chief Economist, Inter-American Development Bank)

What are the reasons for and the costs of Latin America's volatility? Because there is no consensus on these fundamental questions, there is no consensus on the appropriate policy response to macroeconomic volatility in Latin America, and other shock-prone countries. This paper provides new evidence on these contentious issues, and discusses policy implications for the region.
