Actual and Estimated Spreads: Extended Model with CROI as Fundamentals; References 330 $aDespite recent turmoil, spreads on emerging market countries' sovereign bonds have fallen dramatically since mid-2002. Some have attributed the fall to improved economic fundamentals while others to ample global liquidity. The paper models spreads and attempts to empirically distinguish between the two factors. The results indicate that fundamentals, as embedded in credit ratings, are very important, but that expectations of future U.S. interest rates and volatility in those expectations are also a key determinant of emerging market spreads. 410 0$aIMF working paper ;$vWP/08/10. 606 $aBonds$zDeveloping countries$xEconometric models 606 $aLiquidity (Economics)$xEconometric models 606 $aCredit ratings$zDeveloping countries$xEconometric models 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aBonds$xEconometric models. 615 0$aLiquidity (Economics)$xEconometric models. 615 0$aCredit ratings$xEconometric models. 700 $aHartelius$b Kristian$0937527 701 $aKashiwase$b Kenichiro$0937528 701 $aKodres$b Laura E$0937529 712 02$aInternational Monetary Fund.$bMonetary and Capital Markets Dept. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910464840003321 996 $aEmerging market spread compression$92111716 997 $aUNINA
