Description
Summary:Financial crises have been frequently occurred in the global economy, and due to the negative impacts of financial crises on the real sectors performances, the economists tried to predict them. This study tries to investigate the role of the trade flows on occurrence of these phenomena and also the effects of contagion on trade flows. Hence, a sample of the emerging markets countries is selected during 1990-2013, and the simultaneous equations method has been used with discrete dependent variable (contagion of financial crises) in panel data. The results show that the trade flows lead to the acceleration of the contagion of the financial crises and on the other hand, the trade flows has been decreased by financial crises in the selected emerging markets countries. Finally, similar to the probability for contagion of the financial crises, more financial and regional linkages can increase the trade flows among selected countries.
