  • Causes of Financial Crisis: the Case of Latvia
    ISSN 1392-1258. EKONOMIKA 2010 Vol. 89(2) CAUses OF FInancIAL CRISIS: THE Case OF LatVIA Violeta Klyvienė*, Lars Tranberg Rasmussen Danske Bank, Lithuania Abstract. In this paper, we review how Latvia developed during the boom period and discuss the key structural features of the Latvian economy. We show that a combination of monetary and fiscal expansion contributed to a greater vulnerability to external shocks. We also show that the GDP growth was largely driven by capital deepening, while productivity gains played a significantly smaller role. As a result, one of the most important explanations for the exceptionally deep recession in Latvia should be distortions in the non-traded sectors of the economy. Finally, we give a brief analysis on policy measures that have been taken to correct the distortions and possible pros and cons of an external devaluation. Key words: financial integration, external vulnerability, unit labour cost, cyclically adjusted budget, non-tra- ded sector, internal devaluation, external devaluation Intoduction Since the start of the new millennium, the Baltic region has enjoyed one of the high- est growth rates in the world. The key reasons included a housing investment boom fuelled by large capital inflows and cheap credits due to a very loose monetary regime and pro-cyclical fiscal policy. Further, the growth was certainly also driven by economic catching-up and financial deepening effects after obtaining EU membership in 2004. However, even upon adjusting for these effects, there seems little doubt that external imbalances, credit growth rates, inflation and property prices reached unsustainable levels in the final years of the boom period, leading Latvia into a financial turbulence.
