How would capital inflows influence domestic capital structures? How would the capital structure develop when there is a positive effect on productivity growth? What is required for macroeconomic stability? Consider capital-based macroeconomics and convertibility as monetary regime. What lessons can be drawn from the interwar gold-exchange standard? Can we return to convertibility? Use the course readings to analyze macroeconomic stability in emerging economies with international capital inflows under a new gold standard.
