In summary, the reduction of capital inflows to LAC was a triple “whammy” since it was associated with: • A rise in the cost of credit • A substantial depreciation of the real exchange rate • A decline of investment and slower growth

Argentina’s Collapse in a Nutshell • RER depreciation: revaluation of public sector debt relative to GDP + deterioration of corporate balance sheets (contingent liabilities). The proposed fiscal adjustments were clearly insufficient for a substantially higher RER. • Deterioration of public and private sector balance sheets: Worsened quality of bank assets and run on banks due to the fear that losses might be partially financed by confiscating depositors. • The run against banks was accommodated by credit expansion of the CB, leading to a collapse in international reserves and an acceleration of the run on banks.
