The concept of international financial integration (or financial integration) refers to the specific links of a country with inte
6、rnational capital markets (Prasad et al. 2003). In other words, international financial integration can be likened to the opening of domestic financial systems, such as financial markets and institutions and banking systems, to the rest of the world and the internationalization of financial assets a
7、nd liabilities managed by resident entities. It is also comparable to the concepts of financial liberalization and financial openness. In the remainder of this paper, the terms financial liberalization, financial openness, and international financial integration are used interchangeably.2. Overview
8、of Economic Literature on Relationship between International Financial Integration and Macroeconomic VolatilityThe negative impact of financial instability on economic growth and the other macroeconomic and financial indicators has been the subject of considerable literature, especially in the wake
9、of the Mexican and Asian crises in 1994 and 1997. As emphasized by the IMF, instability was particularly severe in the 1990s, whereas many developing countries (including African countries) had only then liberalized their capital accounts. This instability was more pronounced in the case of portfoli
10、o investments than in direct investments because of the longer-term relationship established by the latter. The most severe instability of capital flows recorded in that decade was also accompanied by slightly weaker growth (IMF, 2001). Indeed, the 1990s witnessed many foreign exchange and financial
11、 system crises, often accompanied by a strong contraction in activity?. Bano (2001) also revealed that financial instability leads to drops in economic growth. This weak growth is the result of excessive capital inflows and outflows and, more generally, the instability of net financial flows (Prasad
12、 et al., 2003; World Bank, 2000) and IMF, 2001).The forecasts made by the IMF in the wake of the 1997 East Asian financial crises, which broke out in East Asia in 1997, anticipated a highly significant short-term slowdown in economic growth rates (IMF, 1998). As pointed out by Calvo and others (1996
13、), in most cases, the financial crises were due to excessive capital inflows, which were especially volatile in the form of portfolio investments that were not efficiently allocated to the most productive investments. According to the IMF, these negative results were largely due to the limited capac
14、ities of the financial markets in many developing countries, the fact that lending agencies were less inclined to carry out deeper analysis of projects against a backdrop of abundant financial flows, and imbalances created by attempts to finance long-term projects with short-term capital (IMF, 2001)
15、. The macroeconomic volatility in developing countries is also worsened by the international contagion phenomenon (Jeanne, 2004). The World Bank has shown that financial instability can also impact on the poverty level and have other consequences for the social situation (World Bank, 2000). In concl
16、usion, liberalization can also be associated with more severe macro-economic instability and more frequent crises, which may generate social costs and an increase in poverty. 3.Conclusion and Policy RecommendationsThe study shows considerable divergences on the impact of financial integration on eco
17、nomic growth. In studying this relationship, the paper examines the case of African countries classified between “open and “closed” countries for the 1976-2009 periods. The data do not support the view that international financial integration accelerates economic growth, even under particular econom
18、ic and financial conditions. In addition, the significant private external capital inflows to the continent are a fairly recent phenomenon. In view of the inconclusive nature of the empirical evidence on links between growth and capital inflows, it seems too early to expect sound and strong economet
19、ric results in the case of African countries. These divergences do not necessarily call into question the theoretical underpinnings of a significant and strong relationship between financial integration and economic growth. This relationship could be analyzed on a long-term basis.An additional expla
20、nation of these results can be offered. The significant and strong nature of this relationship is also closely linked to the existence of prerequisites such as the quality of public institutions and governance, the quality of governance of private institutions and enterprises, the level of transpare
21、ncy of government activities, the level of corruption, and the effectiveness of the legal and judicial frameworks (Kose et aL, 2009; Bekaert et al., 2001 and Chanda, 2001). In contrast, Quinn and Toyoda (2008) and Kraay (1998), did not discover these effects.Moreover, we found that instability was m
22、ore pronounced for open countries than closed countries and in the case of portfolio investments than in direct investments. African countries have not been spared the volatility of international capital flows observed in recent times. However, the volatility of capital flows observed in “open and “
23、closed countries was accompanied by moderate instability of economic growth.4.Policy recommendationsFor researchers, financial globalization is captivating not only because of its fascinating policy relevance, but because of the huge variation of methodologies and experiences across countries.
