We develop a simple welfare-based measure that captures how far countries are from the ideal of perfect risk sharing. We then take it to data and find international risk sharing has, indeed, improved during globalization. Improved risk sharing comes mostly from the convergence in rates of consumption growth among countries rather than from synchronization of consumption at the business cycle frequency. Our finding explains why many existing measures fail to detect improved risk sharing-they focus only on risk sharing at the business cycle frequency. 410 0$aIMF working paper ;$vWP/09/209. 606 $aGlobalization 606 $aFinancial risk 615 0$aGlobalization. 615 0$aFinancial risk. 676 $a174 700 $aFlood$b Robert P$0127224 701 $aMarion$b Nancy Peregrim$01753400 701 $aMatsumoto$b Akito$01614873 712 02$aInternational Monetary Fund. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910812314803321 996 $aInternational risk sharing during the globalization era$94189249 997 $aUNINA
