Calibrated with conventional parameter values, the stochastic stationary equilibrium of the model with limited borrowing can account for about two-thirds of the global dispersion of current accounts. The easing of financial frictions can explain nearly all changes in the current account dispersion in the past four decades whereas the easing of trade frictions has almost no impact on the current account dispersion. 410 0$aIMF Working Papers; Working Paper ;$vNo. 2009/276 606 $aAccounting 606 $aDeficit financing 606 $aExports and Imports$2imf 606 $aCurrent Account Adjustment$2imf 606 $aShort-term Capital Movements$2imf 606 $aInternational Investment$2imf 606 $aLong-term Capital Movements$2imf 606 $aEmpirical Studies of Trade$2imf 606 $aInternational economics$2imf 606 $aCurrent account$2imf 606 $aForeign assets$2imf 606 $aTrade balance$2imf 606 $aCurrent account balance$2imf 606 $aCurrent account imbalances$2imf 606 $aBalance of payments$2imf 606 $aInvestments, Foreign$2imf 606 $aBalance of trade$2imf 607 $aUnited States$2imf 615 0$aAccounting. 615 0$aDeficit financing. 615 7$aExports and Imports 615 7$aCurrent Account Adjustment 615 7$aShort-term Capital Movements 615 7$aInternational Investment 615 7$aLong-term Capital Movements 615 7$aEmpirical Studies of Trade 615 7$aInternational economics 615 7$aCurrent account 615 7$aForeign assets 615 7$aTrade balance 615 7$aCurrent account balance 615 7$aCurrent account imbalances 615 7$aBalance of payments 615 7$aInvestments, Foreign 615 7$aBalance of trade 700 $aLee$b Jaewoo$01509561 701 $aChang$b Yongsung$01509562 701 $aKim$b Sun-Bin$01509563 712 02$aInternational Monetary Fund. 801 0$bDcWaIMF 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910788222003321 996 $aAccounting for Global Dispersion of Current Accounts$93741524 997 $aUNINA
