Financial dollarization: evaluating the consequences
利用新数据库重新检验金融美元化对通胀、金融脆弱性和经济表现的影响，发现美元化经济体通胀更高、更易发生银行危机、产出增长更慢且波动更大，且未显著提升国内金融深度。
Financial dollarization has been placed at the forefront of the policy debate in many developing economies, for reasons that include its influence on inflation performance and, most prominently, the currency imbalance and associated financial fragility that it introduces for the economy as a whole. This paper contributes to this debate by revisiting the evidence on the impact of FD on inflation, financial fragility and economic performance in light of a new updated database. It finds evidence that financially dollarized economies tend to display higher inflation rates, higher propensity to suffer banking crises and slower and more volatile output growth, without significant gains in terms of domestic financial depth
