CONCLUDING REMARKS""; ""References"" 330 3 $aThis paper examines the role of IMF-supported programs in crisis prevention; specifically, whether, conditional on an episode of intense market pressures, IMF financial support helps prevent a capital account crisis from developing and, if so, through what channels. In doing so, the paper distinguishes between the seal of approval inherent in IMF support and its financing, evaluates the interaction of IMF support with economic policies, and assesses whether IMF financing has a different impact on the likelihood of a crisis than other forms of liquidity. The main result is that IMF financing helps prevent crises through the liquidity provided (i.e., money matters). However, since the effect holds even after controlling for (gross) foreign exchange reserves, stronger policies and the seal of approval under an IMFsupported program must also play a role. Finally, the results suggest that IMF financing as a crisis prevention tool is most effective for an intermediate range of economic fundamentals. 410 0$aIMF Working Papers; Working Paper ;$vNo. 2006/075 606 $aCapital market 606 $aFinancial crises 606 $aBalance of payments$2imf 606 $aCapital account crisis$2imf 606 $aCapital movements$2imf 606 $aCapital outflows$2imf 606 $aCrisis management$2imf 606 $aCrisis prevention$2imf 606 $aCurrency$2imf 606 $aCurrent Account Adjustment$2imf 606 $aEconomic & financial crises & disasters$2imf 606 $aExchange rate arrangements$2imf 606 $aExports and Imports$2imf 606 $aFinancial Institutions and Services: Government Policy and Regulation$2imf 606 $aFinancial Risk Management$2imf 606 $aForeign Exchange$2imf 606 $aForeign exchange$2imf 606 $aInternational economics$2imf 606 $aInternational Investment$2imf 606 $aLong-term Capital Movements$2imf 606 $aPrivate capital flows$2imf 606 $aShort-term Capital Movements$2imf 607 $aMexico$2imf 615 0$aCapital market. 615 0$aFinancial crises. 615 7$aBalance of payments 615 7$aCapital account crisis 615 7$aCapital movements 615 7$aCapital outflows 615 7$aCrisis management 615 7$aCrisis prevention 615 7$aCurrency 615 7$aCurrent Account Adjustment 615 7$aEconomic & financial crises & disasters 615 7$aExchange rate arrangements 615 7$aExports and Imports 615 7$aFinancial Institutions and Services: Government Policy and Regulation 615 7$aFinancial Risk Management 615 7$aForeign Exchange 615 7$aForeign exchange 615 7$aInternational economics 615 7$aInternational Investment 615 7$aLong-term Capital Movements 615 7$aPrivate capital flows 615 7$aShort-term Capital Movements 700 $aRamakrishnan$b Uma$01677577 701 $aZalduendo$b Juan$01610666 712 02$aInternational Monetary Fund.$bPolicy Development and Review Dept. 801 0$bDcWaIMF 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910822933403321 996 $aThe Role of IMF Support in Crisis Prevention$94044583 997 $aUNINA
