As the period began, the threat from the virus was becoming increasingly apparent, and countries around the world took economically disruptive countermeasures. Stay-at-home orders and closures of non-essential businesses became widespread, many workers were laid off, and unemploy- ment claims spiked, causing a global recession and a sharp fall in equity prices. After markets hit their lowest point of the reporting period in late March 2020, a steady recovery ensued, as businesses began to re-open and governments learned to adapt to life with the virus. Equity prices continued to rise throughout the summer, fed by strong fiscal and monetary support and improving Rob Kapito economic indicators. Many equity indices neared or surpassed all-time highs late in the reporting period President, BlackRock, Inc. following the implementation of mass vaccination campaigns and progress of additional stimulus through the U.S. Congress. In the United States, both large- and small-capitalization stocks posted a significant advance. International equities also gained, as both developed countries and emerging markets re- Total Returns as of February 28, 2021 bounded substantially from lows in late March 2020.

Taiwan's Looming Banking Crisis
Taiwan’s Looming Banking Crisis Heather Montgomery The Asian Development Bank Institute∗ 3-2-5 Kasumigaseki, Chiyoda-ku Tokyo 100-6008 Japan E-mail: [email protected] Tel: 81-3-3593-5524 Fax: 81-3-3593-4270 June 2002 Abstract In light of the recent decline in the health of Taiwan’s banking sector, this study applies the threshold indicators approach of Kaminsky and Reinhart (1999) to evaluate the likelihood of a banking crisis in Taiwan. 70% of Kaminsky and Reinhart’s indicators signal a banking crisis, even using only a 1 year window for indication. This percentage is close to that of Korea in late 1996, just before the Asian Crisis of 1997 hit, and is actually higher than that of Japan around the same time period, just before Japan’s banking crisis erupted in the Fall of 1997. It is unlikely that an economy such as Taiwan, with a flexible exchange rate regime and substantial foreign reserves, would face a balance of payments crisis of the type that hit Asia in 1997. However, an institutional analysis of the nature and causes of the weakness in Taiwan’s banking sector suggests that the economy seems very vulnerable to an internal banking crisis. The analytic and empirical results of this study indicate that Taiwan will soon be facing a banking crisis similar in type and scale to that faced in Japan in 1997-1998. Journal of Economic Literature Classification Codes: F31 Keywords: Early Warning, Banking Crisis, Taiwan. 1Introduction Is Taiwan headed for a banking crisis? The economy weathered the Asian financial crisis of 1997 remarkably well.
